To Provide a safe, well equiped, and fun, coaching environment for local youngsters to learn and develop their cricketing talent.
From a number of years in developing the sporting skills of local talented youngsters at Teversal Cricket Club, it is evident from this year's attendance in difficult circumstances [Covid-19] that more youngsters wish to enjoy and succeed in their cricket where others have done previously. As time goes by, cricketing kit needs replacing. From coaching aids for softball cricket for the youngest, to correcly fitting helmets and pads for the teenagers using the hard cricket ball, and the surfaces on which they can safely practice and train, we are endeavouring to overhaul our existing equipment and facilities to see Teversal's youngsters through our centenary in 2022, and for many years beyond.
What we'll deliver:
Why it's a great idea:
Teversal Cricket Club prides itself on it's recent history of developing social and sporting skills within local children, who have regularly progressed into senior league cricket. In providing an outlet for them to express themselves through playing a game, our initial aim is to reward them with the confidence that participation and enjoyment brings, that also improves their own self esteem and mental well-being. Our most famous "old-boy" progressed from the same cricket field at Teversal, to represent his county at Trent Bridge during one of Nottinghamshire's most successful periods, and then on to play for the full England team against the Australian visitors team in 1985. Tim Robinson is now a professional cricket umpire. In re-developing our cricketing facilities for the youngsters of today, we are aiming to continue with our successful senior teams of tomorrow, and to engage with tomorrow's youngsters for the next generation of cricketers both young and not so young.

VolunteerTeversal Cricket Club is 98 years young this year, and with our centenary just a couple of years away, we are endeavouring to increase the numbers of local children who enjoy participating in the English Cricket Board [ECB] All-Stars and Dynamos cricket coaching programmes, held after school on our club ground in Teversal, Sutton-in-Ashfield.
We are also currently negotiating with Ashfield District Council to take over the Trusteeship with the Teversal visitors centre, football, and bowls clubs, of the Teversal sports and social facility, located next to the beautiful and expansive trails linking Teversal to Tibshelf, Brierley Park, Skegby, and Pleasley Mining Museum. This will be an exciting moment that will enable our clubs to re-develop an area that recently has fallen into decline.
