Ambitious plans for 6 projects across Bedfordshire and Huntingdonshire.
Chance to Shine Street brings cricket to thousands of young people in urban areas. It uses the game to increase aspiration, promote social cohesion and create opportunities in diverse communities. There are currently 165 Chance to Shine Street projects across the country. At sessions, young people play a 6-a-side, fast-paced, high-impact version of tape-ball cricket.
