Aim: We aim to raise needed funds to support the development and growth of our village cricket club and also a local cancer charity (75%:25%).
Who are we?
A village cricket club aiming to provide our local community with the opportunity to enjoy participating and watching local cricket in a welcoming and safe environment. To support this initiative two of our Club members (Dean Dunn and Add Sayer) with a combined age of 128 years will be hiking up to the top of Mount Snowdon in Wales on the 24th June 2025.

Why are we crowdfunding?
To maintain and improve our training, coaching, and playing facilities and equipment, as well as the development of our coaches through coaching courses to attain the high standards needed to run an amateur cricket club. By having suitable facilities and a structure that will attract, retain and develop talented individuals of all sexes and ages.

How we’ll spend the money raised
We need help to maintain and renew equipment such as :
Training aids for children and the club as a whole (net return walls, throw down practise nets, marker discs, training cones, water bottle carriers and hygiene water bottles, cricket helmets, boundary ropes and protection of the square (playing surface).
Grass cutting and line marking machines, playing kit (cloths), cricket bats, cricket balls, stumps & bails, batting gloves, wicket keeping gloves, batting and wicket keeping pads
We also need help to fund training courses for senior players to enable them to take new and maintain existing qualifications. This in turn allows them to better develop our youth teams.
We anticipate by improving and maintaining our facilities we attract more players, especially youngsters, and spectators to the sport.

Community impact
It’s important to explain the wider impact of your organisation for the whole community, who does it benefit and why? Perhaps your facilities are used for other purposes outside of sport too?
