Walking Cricket - A Game for Everyone

The Leicestershire and Rutland Cricket Foundation is proud to deliver Walking Cricket, an exciting, inclusive format designed for people who want to stay active, social, and connected—without the intensity of the traditional game.

What is Walking Cricket?

  • Walking Cricket is a slower-paced version of the sport where:
  • Players walk instead of run, making it accessible for older adults or those with limited mobility.
  • The game uses soft balls and adapted rules to ensure safety and enjoyment.
  • Matches are fun, friendly, and focused on participation rather than competition.

It’s perfect for anyone who loves cricket but prefers a gentler way to play.

Why Choose Walking Cricket?

Walking Cricket offers:

  • Physical benefits: Improve fitness, flexibility, and coordination.
  • Mental wellbeing: Reduce stress and boost confidence.
  • Social connection: Meet new people and enjoy a welcoming community.

Our Commitment

We’re passionate about making cricket inclusive for all ages and abilities. Through Walking Cricket, we aim to keep people active, engaged, and part of the cricket family for life.
