Plenty of work is going on behind the scenes to identify clubs who are focused on developing Women and Girls Cricket across the whole of Cricket East.
The hope is that the project, backed by the ECB, will help open lines of communication between like-minded clubs to help support the progress being made by sharing ideas and supporting each other’s efforts, while developing plans to get more formalised structures in place to help maintain progress including realistic targets, education of coaches and volunteers to help better support and promote their good work.
A recent meeting of several clubs at Ickwell Cricket Club sparked plenty of positive discussion and some great ideas to help support each other moving forward and most importantly, get clubs talking!
Loads of events coming up – keep an eye out on social media and the Cricket East Bulletins and Newsletters for information on Women & Girls cricket happening at a nearby venue or give Phil Lewis an email at phil.lewis@cricketeast.co.uk or call 07791 582337 to see how he can help your club.
