About Us

Our Mission

  • Increase the number of children in London participating in cricket
  • Increase the amount of children from disadvantaged and ethnic minority backgrounds participating in cricket
  • Support personal and social development through cricket

What do we do?

  • Deliver in-school coaching programmes
  • Run competitive inter-school festivals
  • Establish a "pop up" cricket club that allows access to community cricket for children in areas with little to no existing provision

Inner London Boroughs

Where do we do it?

  • Our work is predominantly focused on inner London
  • We identify wards with over 25% child poverty, over 50% ethnic minority populations and little to no cricket provision 
  • We establish hubs across 2-3 wards that usually include 6-12 Primary Schools

What have we achieved so far?

  • 322 schools engaged in 16 Boroughs
  • 18,378 children involved (10,414 of whom had not played cricket before)
  • 38% of participants from disadvantaged background
  • 76% of participants from ethnic minority backgrounds
  • 927 children participating in community cricket through 35 new “pop up” cricket clubs
  • 388 (42%) of community participants are female

    PLAYER OF THE WEEK

    Each week our coaches identify a PLAYER OF THE WEEK from the 3,000+ children we work with, as a recognition of their talent, efforts or improvement.


    This week's PLAYER OF THE WEEK Award goes to Khadija from Ark Globe Primary in Elephant & Castle, Southwark. Khadija’s batting has particularly impressed our coaches - she has combined an excellent technique with a lot of power hitting.
