Over the coming months we will be hosting a number of webinars aimed at providing clubs with a range of information, updates and best practice from across the network. Coming dates include:
Crowdfunding Best Practice – Thursday 4th November, 7.30-8.30pm
Hear from Limpsfield Chart Cricket Club who used Crowdfunding to great effect as part of the fundraising campaign as they had to undertake significant remedial work on their outfield. Sport England has recently added a further £5m into their pot linked with Crowdfunding and you can find out more here - https://www.sportengland.org/how-we-can-help/our-funds/return-play-active-together.
Coach Development Update – Tuesday 16th November, 7.30-8.30pm
On this call Coach Education Coordinator, Alastair Hughes, and Assistant Director of Participation Simon Hards, will take clubs through the recent changes to the Coach Development programme, covering the new course structure, how we are working with the Participation Officers around allocation of places and our overall ambitions for the programme which form part of our wider Workforce Plan
All Stars and Dynamos Cricket - Tuesday 7th December, 7.30-8.30pm
On this workshop clubs will find out about the timescales for the 2022 programme as well as hearing some best practice from Surrey Clubs specifically focussing on recruitment and transition from All Stars/Dynamos into club cricket.
Walking Cricket – Wednesday 19th January 2022, 7.30-9pm
Walking Cricket could be one of the biggest growth areas of the sport in the next 5 years and we have two guest speakers joining us to tell you how you can get Walking Cricket going at your club and why it is a no brainer to get involved. Darren Talbot (T20 Community Cricket) and Chris Smith (Pirbright Cricket Club) will be talking about their experience of starting walking cricket groups in the 2021 season within Surrey and will share their views on why this is a must start initiative for clubs.
If you would like to attend any of these webinars please contact Simon Hards. Recordings will be available on the website after each session.
