"“I fell in love with it from day one!!! I have previously not paid any attention to this sport, but I love playing. From dropping every ball and missing each shot to great batting, bowling and even catching skills. I feel fitter but even better I can't wait each week to meet our group and playing” "

Sulochana Ratan – Ladies Walking Cricket – Cricket Cities

""I’ve seen girls go from shy and reserved to strutting their stuff on the pitch. Cricket has given them confidence, friendships, and a safe space to grow.”"

Uppingham Town CC - Parent & Volunteer Coordinator – Women and Girls

"“I like cricket because it makes me feel more confident as I am getting better at hardball cricket""

Smit Naresh – Chance to Shine Street

"My dad and I have attended more than forty sessions at Leicestershire Cricket Club. We’ve had access to excellent facilities and well-run, friendly sessions in a relaxed and supportive environment. The atmosphere is welcoming, the behaviour of attendees is fantastic, and the coaches make every session enjoyable. "

Craig Flynn – Walking Cricket

"“These sessions were a great success. It was brilliant seeing how well our young people engaged and supported each other. The ability on show was amazing — some now play for Leicester Caribbean CC!”"
