Our SEND Schools Programme is funded by the Lord’s Taverners where we deliver Softball Cricket in Special Schools and to SEND children in Mainstream Schools. The programme provides fundamentals of cricket and sport, competition, school/club links, personal and social development as well as teacher training.
Table Cricket is a massive part of our SEND Cricket Programme, giving young people with a physical and/or learning disability the opportunity to compete in the game of cricket. As with any form of the game, there is a bowler, batter and fielders, as well as an umpire to oversee proceedings. Participants are provided with the opportunity to improve social skills while at the same time developing their cognitive skills, team skills, hand eye co-ordination, spatial awareness and physical well-being.
For more information on the work that Lord Taverners do, please have a look at their website www.lordstaverners.org
If you would like a member of the disability team to contact your school about disability cricket then please contact s.lightfoot@staffordshirecricket.co.uk
