Young cricketers from state schools in York are eyeing up the chance to play at Lord’s later this summer as part of a national competition run by MCC Foundation, the charitable arm of MCC.
Last year, the Guildford and Bolton girls Hubs made the final as well as the Bradford and Reading boys Hubs with Guildford and Reading taking their respective crowns making it a day for Southern success. York’s MCC Foundation Hub lead, Mick, explained: “It is a chance for all participants at U16 level to play at Lords Cricket ground, the home of cricket.
The first part of the programme between January and April provides 10 weeks of free weekly cricket sessions in Hubs across the UK who are then invited to take part in the MCC Foundation Hubs competition. A recent £1 million funding boost from the MCC and the ECB has allowed the programme to expand from 77 Hubs across the UK last year, to 126 this year with plans to reach 150 Hubs and 5,000 young people in 2025.
