Cricket

Since 2018, King Edward's has been the official education partner of Hampshire County Cricket Club. This provides students with access to extensive coaching knowledge and skills of both members of staff and external coaches based in the country. 

Our teams regularly reach the county finals in all age groups, and have represented Hampshire in the national competitions in recent years. King Edward's was also named as one of the top schools of the year by The Cricketer magazine in 2022.
