Dynamos Cricket
The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) are delivering another year of Dynamos Cricket Intros; a multi-year initiative that champions inclusion, encouraging children from more communities to take up the game of cricket. Warwickshire Cricket Foundation (WCF) are responsible for delivery in Birmingham.
WCF is looking to work with organisations to introduce children to cricket in Birmingham. Dynamos Cricket Intros is designed to tackle existing barriers and inspire the next generation to pick up a bat and ball, particularly in urban areas, by introducing children to a simplified, more dynamic game of countdown cricket.
We know how important it is to look like the heroes of the game, so every child who takes part will receive their very own Dynamos Cricket t-shirt, cricket ball, medal & certificate upon completion of the programme.
Key Information
Dynamos, launched in 2020, is for children aged between 8-11 years of age. The programme consists of 4, 2-hour sessions or 2, 4 hour sessions (10am – 2pm) delivered by qualified WCF cricket coaches. Alongside our coach, one of the main aims of Dynamos is to develop and train brand-new activators to help build a sustainable model of cricket coaching. This could be teachers/leaders etc from the venues.

Successful groups will be encouraged and supported by WCF who will deliver free cricket during the summer as part of their holiday activity and food programme. Successful applications will need to send volunteers to attend a cricket activator course. The date of the training will be sent to all the successful applications after the closing date.
