Warwickshire Cricket Foundation offers a handful of programmes to ensure everyone has access to being involved in Cricket.

Supported by the Lords Taverners, WCF runs Table Cricket, Super 1’s, Super 9’s and has a county access team competing in both competitions, with the team entering the D40 league for the first time in 2024.

Super 1’s

The programme allows access to regular weekly coaching and opportunities to take part in competitions. These are inclusive community sessions for anyone with a physical or learning disability aimed at increasing confidence, promoting a healthy lifestyle, and developing cricket skills. From April, we will have Super 1’s hubs in Coventry, Edgbaston, Solihull, Hall Green and Stratford Upon Avon.

Super 9’s

Like Super 1’s, the Super 9’s programme is a national competition for players with a physical and/or learning disability. The programme aims to give those players from Super 1’s a taste of representing your county playing cricket, and progress along the disability cricket pathway to D40 and DPL. This format is played as a longer over game with a softball offering those who want to play competitively a level of safety.

D40

The programme aims to give those players from Super 9’s a premium offer of domestic county level disability cricket. This format is slightly different from those above in that a pink hardball is used and protective equipment is required to play.
