I am a Player

GET INVOLVED AS AN INDIVIDUAL PLAYER

For so many cricket has become less of an option primarily because of the length time it is traditionally played over. The Slam is a cricket competition, played across three separate counties that speeds things up and makes the game we love more accessible to fit around our increasingly busy lives.

So whether you're wanting to get back into the game, ensure you can keep involved, or fancy playing recreationally for the first time, The Slam is committed to helping you find an option for you. Just click the button below to register your basic details and we'll get you contacted to teams near you that offer the sort of cricket you're looking for.

The Slam is:

accessible - we'll do the hard work of putting you in contact with a team to suit your level and needs;
fast - matches take on average just 2.5 hours;
inclusive - over limits and enforced retirements ensure everyone gets involved;
fair - unique eligibility rules either preclude or restrict higher level players, giving everyone a fair chance in each game;
bold - each team has its own unique branding and provides access to coloured kit to help everyone express themselves;
social - maximises the use of social media channels to ensure the natural social element of our game is also modern;
affordable - because The Slam is not-for-profit teams can charge their players the bare minimum to get involved;
convenient - all matches are localised minimising travelling distance and time for everyone;
momentum building - initial group stages mean a full season of matches rather than potentially just 1 knockout tie;
showpiece - each competition concludes with a showpiece 4-team Finals' Day held at one of the county's premier grounds.

The Slam began life as a male, midweek competition in Surrey in 2018 but in 2022 you have multiple options with teams across 4 counties. Just pick which competitions are best for you and then complete our Player Registration form with some simple non-intrusive details and we'll do the hard work of getting you linked up with teams local to you that are waiting to welcome you:
