Calling all parents, guardians, teachers and friends looking for kids to try a new sport this summer!
We have two brand new kids participation programmes to share with you this year – Smash It and It’s Wicket!
Smash It is for girls and boys aged 5 – 9 while It’s Wicket! is a girls-only programme for 9 – 13 year olds. Both programmes are full of activity, learning and friendship and aim to introduce kids to cricket in a fun, safe and inclusive environment.
Smash It and It’s Wicket! sessions are delivered by trained Club Activators and participants will receive a Smash It or It’s Wicket! t-shirt, backpack, bat and ball once they register to become part of the Smash It or It’s Wicket! tribes!
You’ll find all the information about the programmes including locations of those Clubs delivering Smash It or It’s Wicket! and registration information at www.cricket-programmes.com.
