The festival, which is set to take place from June 29 to July 2, 2025, will be held at Millfield School in Somerset.
Trinity School, in Croydon, is one of the schools who will be represented at the event.
The wealth management firm Titan Wealth, who are sponsoring the festival and have also played a part in its planning, have said the event promises to be a “transformative experience” for the young cricketers.
It will feature Under-15 teams from South Africa, Namibia, and the UK.
As well as the cricket, the festival aims to teach players valuable life skills and to help them make lasting friendships.
There will be appearances by cricket legends Sir Andrew Strauss and Ebony Rainford-Brent.
There will also be sessions led by wellbeing and life coaches on mental and physical health, and career development.
These will aim to teach young players how to handle pressure and how to make the most of their strengths.
Mike Fogden, chief marketing officer at Titan Wealth, said: “This event is not just about cricket; it’s about creating opportunities and building a network for young people.
“We believe in the vision of APEX and our team has enjoyed working with the organising committee to create a hugely exciting, well-rounded event.
“We all can’t wait for the first delivery.”
Titan Wealth’s sponsorship of the festival is part of their commitment to nurturing young talent, on and off the field.
They aim to provide a number of internships and work placements for young players as part of a wider sponsorship programme.
The festival has also partnered with cricket charities Bat for a Chance and the MCC Foundation.
These partnerships are intended to ensure underprivileged children can experience the joys of cricket.
