Lancashire Cricket Foundation is launching weekly Walking Cricket sessions at two venues in Greater Manchester from September 2021
This project has been made possible through funding from the National Lottery Awards for All.
Walking Cricket makes cricket accessible to older adults (men and women aged over 50) and individuals who are semi–retired or retired. It is an adaptation of the traditional game of cricket to suit those with less mobility and caters for different abilities.
The sessions are led by a trained coach and start with gentle ball skill exercises which build up into a game, followed by a chat with complimentary refreshments.
The growth of Greater Manchester’s movement for movement was there for all to see on Monday (25 March) as nearly 1,000 people attended the GM Moving Conference.
Join over 1,000 colleagues leading, learning and moving to enable active lives for all.
The network will offer renewed support for organisations providing community sport, physical activity and movement opportunities across Greater Manchester.
