School Cricket
We believe that competitive team sports can play an important role in the education of young people and a big part of our time is dedicated to working with a number of schools in the county to embed cricket across the curriculum.
Primary Schools Programme
Durham Cricket is committed to developing strong links with our primary schools. The school cricket programme is aimed at providing children aged five to eleven with a great first opportunity to play and learn through the game and support and collaborate with teachers to encourage additional opportunities to participate.
