The idea
Due to the Covid--19 Pandemic there will be no cricket played before 1 July at the earliest and Crossflatts CC are in a position of still having to pay bills with no income.
We have built up a thriving junior section in the last four years and had big plans for the 2020 with a new under 13's team, girls cricket section and Dynamo's cricket to add to our teams from 2019.
A lack of bar takings and sponsorship from local businesses means we are currently unable to invest in new equipment that will be needed once cricket is safe to restart.
We want to raise funds to allow us to provide the equipment needed for our current juniors and those we hope to attract to the game to ensure they can continue to enjoy cricket at Crossflatts CC
What we'll deliver
- Equipment to help develop junior cricket
- Coaching and safety qualifications for our new coaches
- Cricket to girls and boys of all ages and abilities
Why it's a great idea
With the cricket season unable to commence our fundraising and sponsorship income has been reduced to zero.
We would like to ensure we are in a position to provide a place to participate in cricket safely and with good equipment for our local children once it is safe to do so.
Steps to get it done
- Run crowdfunding campaign to collect funds
- Purchase new junior equipment
- Use new equipment in junior cricket once safe to resume
