First target reached!
Brilliant we have hit our target, if we are able to raise a bit more we will be able...
Aim
New Nets are for ever growing Junior, Ladies and Adult sections plus the desire to offer chance to play cricket in our area via school links
Who are we?
Brislington Cricket Club.
Established in 1868 we have been offering cricket to all in the area for over 150 years,
We boost 4 adult teams, Ladies Hardball and Softball, Junior sections covering all age groups.
We link with local schools and run an introduction to cricket via Allstars and Dynamos schemes offering cricket from 5yo to 11yo.
Why are we crowdfunding?
As an independent club looking to upgrade our facilities at Brislington Cricket Club, all our groups are desperate to offer the best equipment we can. Hence we are installing a new net system. This is why we are asking for support in funding this project the club is looking to fund as much as it can but at £70,000+ we need as much support as we can.
If we raise out target Sport England will match up to £7,500 which will help the club immensely as we only have limited resources to achieve our aim.
The aim being making cricket accessible to all.
The donations and financial support from Sport England will go directly to help our club fund the project this will be the biggest project we have ever done and we look forward to seeing its benefits.
Community impact
For 150 years we have been a part of Brislington's heritage and want to offer the surrounding area the opportunity to enjoy the opportunity to play, watch, enjoy local Cricket - currently there are approx 200 participants at our club add to this links with local primary schools and hopefully further links to secondary and colleges in the area.
