DISABILITY CRICKET

Participation:

Lord’s Taverners Table Cricket

Table cricket is an adapted version of cricket, played on a modified table tennis table and specially designed to give young people with a disability the chance to play and compete. Table Cricket is delivered in SEND schools and SEND school settings across Northamptonshire with a county competition held at the County Ground. The winners go on to represent the county in the next stages of a national competition.

Lord’s Taverners Super 1s

Super 1s gives young people with a disability aged 12-25 the chance to play and enjoy regular cricket. Weekly sessions are delivered at community cricket hubs across the county where young people can receive coaching, giving participants the chance to compete against their peers and enjoy the benefits of playing sport as well as achieving some wider outcomes.
