Handmade Cricket Bats

As independent cricket bat makers, Stag Cricket hand-crafts each bat in our workshop in Maidstone, Kent. Our Master Bat Maker personally selects our Kashmir and English Willow clefts to ensure the best quality and has developed an innovative bat making process, during which we check the balance, weight and sweet spot/ping at regular intervals to ensure all of our cricket bats are premium quality regardless of the type and grade of willow you choose.

We offer a range of cricket bat profiles to suit all types of batsmen:

• Our Blue Stag English willow junior cricket bats have been designed to suit all junior players, thanks to its mid / duckbill profile. This gives the bat a balanced pick, with maximised edge thickness for greater power.
• Our Red Stag English willow cricket bats have been designed and developed with a concave/scalloped profile, creating a much lighter pick-up whilst maximising the edges’ thickness for maximum power.
• Our Roe Stag English willow cricket bats have been designed and developed with a mid / duckbill profile, giving a balanced pick-up, with maximised edge thickness for greater power when hitting the ball.
• Our Sika Stag English willow cricket bats have been designed and developed with a full profile, creating a larger middle and sweet spot and balanced pick-up. Batsmen will enjoy ultimate power at the forefront when using this type of bat.
• Our Mini Stag Kashmir willow junior cricket bats are an affordable option for junior players who are new to the game of cricket and have been designed with a mid / duckbill profile. This gives the bat a balanced pick, with maximised edge thickness for greater power.

Stag Cricket offers three grades of English willow, to suit all bats and cricketers, from beginners to advanced international players:
