Cricket with The R66T Academy and Oxford International 

 

A Summer Cricket Camp Experience in London Like No Other

This summer, a brand-new junior programme is set to redefine the way students experience summer in the UK – by combining it with world-class cricket training through an exciting partnership with the R66T Academy.

Delivered by Oxford International Juniors in the UK, this innovative programme brings together academic development and elite-level sport in one unforgettable experience. Hosted at the prestigious Royal Holloway, University of London, our summer camp offers students the opportunity to study, train, and live in a truly inspiring environment.

About the Cricket Programme & The R66T Academy 

What makes this programme unique is its seamless integration of a sports-focussed curriculum with professional cricket coaching. Students take part in engaging cricket workshops around sports nutrition and hydration, injury prevention and recovery, and mental wellbeing, while also stepping onto the pitch to train under expert ECB-qualified coaches from the R66T Academy.

The R66T Academy was founded by former England cricket captain Joe Root and focuses on developing players both on and off the field. Training sessions cover all aspects of the game, including batting, bowling, fielding, fitness, and match awareness, while also encouraging teamwork, discipline, and personal growth.

Beyond training, the programme offers a truly immersive cricket experience. Students will visit iconic venues such as Lord’s Cricket Ground and The Oval, gaining insight into the history and prestige of the sport. They will also have the chance to watch a live match from The Hundred, bringing the excitement of professional cricket to life.

But this is more than just a sports camp – it’s a global learning experience. Students from around the world have the opportunity to come together, creating an international environment where English is used naturally every day. Whether in the classroom, on the field, or during social activities, learners build friendships and cultural understanding.

Experience Royal Holloway, University of London

The setting at Royal Holloway adds an extra layer of inspiration. With its stunning campus and excellent facilities, it provides the perfect balance of academic focus and outdoor activity. Students benefit from a safe, supportive environment where they can grow in confidence while enjoying a structured and engaging programme.

Hosting at Royal Holloway means we’re able to offer two unique ways to experience the new programme. First, our customary residential programme for international students who are housed on campus enjoy meals, workshops, activities, and coaching onsite. There is also an option for Cricket Day Camp students already within the UK, joining for cricket workshops, training, and excursions during the weekdays only.

As with all Oxford International Juniors courses, student welfare is a top priority. The programme is fully supervised, with experienced staff ensuring that every participant feels safe, supported, and included throughout their stay.
