Cricket is a sport that is watched by billions and played by millions of people around the world. It is fun, simple and easily adaptable to be played anywhere, by anyone, at any time.
The Eesti Kriketi Liit (EKL) has developed a number of Introduction to Cricket programs so as to be able to meet the different needs of schools.
Each program gives new participants to cricket a fun first experience that we hope will inspire a life-long journey with our great sport and welcome them as a member of the global cricket community.
These programs have been designed with a focus on “Gamification”. Getting participants playing and learning at the same time.
Cricket is a sport that allows participants to utilise and develop both physical and mental attributes and as such physical literacy is at the core of this program.
The EKL is able to provide qualified coaches and all equipment needed to run engaging, enjoyable sessions for people of all ages.
