Schools

Cricket is the world’s second-most popular sport, played in over 100 countries. It is one of the fastest growing sports in the US, with school systems in Maryland and New York now teaching the game and fielding teams. Cricket is a bat and ball game, like baseball, that helps develop hand-eye coordination, speed, agility, and strategic thinking. As with other organized games, players also build sportsmanship and camaraderie. Cricket is easy and fun to play. You can easily incorporate the game into your sports program to provide students with something completely new, and to give students who may already have some exposure the chance to bring their skills to school.
