The Warwickshire Cricket Foundation provides opportunity for thousands of young people who face barriers to play cricket in a fast-paced version of the game using a tape ball.
All equipment is provided and attending is FREE of charge. Street Cricket is targeted at Youths aged 8-15 and Young Adults aged 16-24; each age group has a separate session.
If you’re interested in attending a Street Cricket session, please contact Mohammed Arif for more information.
This highly coveted award recognises the success of WCF’s Chance to Shine sessions in school and community settings. Since 2021, WCF has delivered over 14 Chance to Shine Street hubs in Birmingham, plus the nationally acclaimed Ramadan League.
The Ramadan League was the idea of Eaton Gordon and ran at the Edgbaston Indoor Cricket Centre during the 2021 lockdown. It gave 16 to 18 year old Chance to Shine Street participants the opportunity to play cricket from 10pm to midnight during Ramadan, after breaking their fast and prayers.
Our Community Coaches are an incredible group of people, and this award is a great honour for us all. It reflects their passion for coaching and the rapport they have with participants to get them coming back week after week to develop as players and people.
