We work closely with SEN schools in Warwickshire and Birmingham to promote cricket as an enjoyable and inclusive sport that young children can enjoy socially or competitively.<\/h3>\n

According to a Sport England survey, disabled people are nearly twice as likely to be physically inactive. We aim to provide opportunities that make it possible for everyone to participate in cricket and improve their physical health.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019d like to learn more about how we can support your school, please email Nigel Perry-Ogden<\/a>.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

\n

Cricket gives young disabled people the chance to play, learn, and enjoy the game in ways that might not have been possible before. We deliver an adapted version of Table Cricket across schools, alongside our regular SEN sessions, to make the game more accessible for everyone.<\/p>\n

What Teachers Are Saying..<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
\n

“I just wanted to say thank you for the wonderful cricket sessions your team ran with our Reception classes towards the end of term.\u00a0 They all thoroughly enjoyed them and learnt a lot, as did the teachers accompanying the children to the session.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

In particular it was wonderful to see the way you were able to amend the sessions slightly so that Aayan could join in alongside his peers, this is something we continually try to do but it proves hard at times!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Thank you also for your kindness in the bat and note that you delivered in for Aayan, he was so happy with it! Lovely to see the smile it brought to his face.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Thanks again and we look forward to hopefully working with you again in the future.”<\/p>\n
