Cricket Project

We have recently been awarded £11,000 from the Wembley National Stadium Trust through London Youth.


This money will go towards providing sports projects for young people with disabilities.


In May we linked up with Surrey County cricket club and put on a programme of cricket sessions.

Some of us had never played cricket before, thought it was boring and had no interest in it! However by the end of the 1st session, everyone was engaged and really enjoying themselves.

 

This project was a fully integrated project between our learning disability group and our mainstream youth group.

This was a real success and some of us are now going to look into joining a cricket club!

We are all looking forward to coming back after half term and taking part in another inclusive sports project which will be football!
