Cricket should be a game for everyone.

We're raising funds to create a new wicket and improve our facilities so that more people in our community can access, enjoy and thrive in cricket—regardless of age, gender, background or ability. Our vision is to make cricket more inclusive, welcoming and accessible for all, while providing a safe and high-quality environment for current and future players.

This project aims to support greater participation and remove barriers to getting involved in the game.

Every donation, no matter the size, will help us move closer to our goal and make a lasting impact on our club and local community.

If you can donate, we'd be incredibly grateful.

Together, we can create opportunities, inspire the next generation, and ensure cricket truly is a sport for everyone.
