2024 was another fantastic year for the Sussex Cricket Foundation. Participation across all areas of the game continues to rise and recreational cricket in Sussex continues to be in the best possible place.
The ECB continues to hold the Foundation in high regard, with our reputation locally and nationally amongst our partners/supporters particularly strong. This is a fantastic endorsement of the amazing work my team does across Sussex.
There were many highlights during 2024 including, 3000 school children & teachers attending our annual Schools Day, continued investment into facilities in Brighton & Crawley, our first ever Disability Cricket weekend, which included our D40 and VI teams both playing & winning fixtures at The 1st Central County Ground, continued growth of our adult & women’s cricket leagues and the relaunch of our area cricket programme at ages 9 – 12.
As we enter a new strategy cycle, 2025 is already shaping up to be another successful year for the Foundation, with many plans in place to continue growing the game and making it accessible to all.
To help deliver these plans and through increased funding from key partners such as Chance to Shine, we have had a small restructure of the Foundation Department. This has seen us move back to 4 ‘Territory’ Areas and recruit more community coaches to the team.
“ THERE WERE MANY HIGHLIGHTS DURING 2024! “
Other key priorities include continuing to grow women’s & girls’ cricket, disability cricket, number of volunteers in the game and ensuring that adequate playing & changing facilities are in place for people to play and enjoy the game.
State School Cricket continues to be a priority area for the Foundation and for the game nationally. Our partnership with Brighton Aldridge Community Academy (BACA) continues to provide state school children with the opportunity to access high quality cricket provision in a state school setting, but we need to do more. Exciting plans are in place to build on this success, by creating a ‘hub’ model across the County linking to our work at BACA, to provide increased opportunities for state school children to access the game and fulfill their potential.
As a county we want to continue to make The 1st Central County Ground accessible to our recreational players by hosting various fixtures & events throughout the summer. We want to also ensure we continue to utilise our professional men’s & women’s players, by taking them into the local community to help inspire the next generation of cricketers or supporters of our great club.
The Foundation continues to be in the best place financially & operationally, but the real success of the Foundation is down to the hard work, commitment and dedication of my team, who deserve enormous credit. I would also like to personally thank my team, Senior Leadership Team, our Trustees, SCL Board, SCF Patrons and Community Partners for their continued support to help us achieve our aims and objectives, it is greatly
As ever, our number one priority is to ensure that opportunities are made available to all to access the game whether that be participating, volunteering or spectating and breaking down any barriers associated with the game.
#GOSBTS WELCOME
AS EVER, OUR NUMBER ONE PRIORITY IS TO ENSURE THAT OPPORTUNITIES ARE MADE AVAILABLE TO ALL, TO ACCESS THE GAME.

CASE STUDY: SMALL VILLAGE CLUB NEAR CRAWLEY, THRIVING AFTER THROWING THEMSELVES INTO GIRLS’ CRICKET
Founded in the mid 1800’s, the picturesque Turners Hill CC had been going for well over 150 years before having to pull out of the Sussex Cricket League in 2018. It wasn’t until 2021 that local community members decided to act and enter an adult league team that season. As of the end of the 2024 season their rise has culminated in promotion into Division 7.
In the words of the club, it was the best decision they have ever made and since, they’ve made themselves sustainable for years to come by growing their membership, volunteer base & starting a junior section, especially with no other sports clubs in the village.
However, one of the main reasons was that three of the members of the committee all had daughters and wanted to provide a place to play cricket locally.
With National Programmes being a perfect way to start a junior section, they decided to run mixed All Stars and girls-only Dynamos. In the first year, All Stars places were booked within the first 30 minutes of sign up, whilst the Dynamos only had a modest 10 girls.
In 2023 the girls numbers grew, with 50% of All Stars being girls and 18 girls signed up to Dynamos. This allowed the club to enter an U11 girls team in the league and take part in some of the soft ball festivals run by the Sussex Cricket Foundation.
The number of girls continues to grow and currently the club only have a girls’ team, playing regular fixtures, which is a first for any club in Sussex!
To achieve this, firstly they met with the head teacher at the local primary school, who was very supportive of their plans. Helping to send out communications to their parent network and sharing a video about the club so that the children could see what cricket was all about.
The club do all their training on a Friday evening and make it a community social event, coaching the All Stars and Dynamos whilst putting on a BBQ for the families, with produce provided by the local Grange Farm.
“ THE NUMBER OF GIRLS
The coaches are all male and mainly the dads of the daughters in the Dynamos setup. Asked how different it is to coach girls to boys, their response was;
“For the first 15 minutes let them talk! The girls are more engaged than the boys, boys want to do their own thing whilst the girls listen and are more fun to coach. It’s been a massive learning curve and the range of abilities makes it interesting to coach.”
To keep increasing numbers going forward, they are looking to tap into local community groups that run activity for girls, such as Crawley Down FC & Brownies groups, to aid the transition from All Stars to Dynamos and reach out to more primary schools in the neighbouring villages.
However, they do still face some challenges as a club, including making sure that training sessions don’t clash with the other local community groups, breaking down the perception of cricket as an ‘old fashioned’ sport and identifying new volunteers to keep the ship afloat.
Despite their modest size, Turners Hill are ambitious and have plans to continue to grow in 2025; with two adult teams, a Women’s Soft Ball side and eventually, junior teams right up through the age-groups.
To help them achieve this they need to have a new nonturf pitch and at some stage a second ground.
They also want to make sure that the club is still sustainable and that the volunteers who are making the club a success currently, can leave it in a place where cricket will continue to prosper in the village, being played by all ages and all genders.
At the end of the season the club holds a ceremony where every single All Stars and Dynamos attendee receives a special Turners Hill CC medal and certificate. It is small touches like this that enable families to feel a part of a community and the club.

Each year, the number of girls involved has continued to grow under Anna's leadership, with more school festivals, more ‘Dynamos Girls’ programmes and more matches being played each season.
“I JUST LOVE SEEING HOW MUCH THEY ENJOY PLAYING CRICKET TOGETHER. “
When asked why she does it, Anna said;
At The Cricket Collective Awards 2024, Anna Davies of Chichester Priory Park Cricket Club was awarded The Metro Bank Champion Of Girls’ Cricket in Sussex.
Having been socially involved at the club for a few years, Anna became a volunteer in 2017, when she offered to help with the admin for the club’s All Stars Cricket programme. Back then her own daughter was a toddler but one who was already showing interest in cricket. Anna knew then that she wanted to carve a pathway for girls, so that her daughter would have every possible opportunity, should she grow to love cricketas
Six years on, Anna is the driving force behind the development of girls’ cricket at the club, which has gone from just 16 girls involved in All Stars to over 70 girls regularly playing and enjoying cricket.
When the option to run a Dynamos programme for girls arose Anna knew this would be the key to growth, to provide a stepping stone for All Stars girls and an accessible option for new girls to get involved. So, Anna invited local primary schools to an after-school festival, allowing girls to try the game in a club environment, while surrounded by their school friends.
These trailblazers went on to become the club's first cohort of Dynamos and then form U9, U11 & U12 teams; the first competitive girls' teams in the club's history.

"The Teacher in me always wants to see children thrive, it's hard work but I get a huge amount ofsatisfaction out of it. Parents are always so grateful for the opportunities their daughters have and the supportive environment they experience amongst girls their own age. I just love seeing how much they love playing cricket together."
Father of cricketing daughters, Ben Hubbard, added;
“We are all very grateful to Anna for the energy she brings to the girls’ game. In addition to developing their cricketing skills and love of the game, she has helped the girls forge new friendships which they will enjoy for many years to come. I have no doubt that Anna’s involvement is a big reason why so many girls have joined the club.”
The club aims to have a girls' cricket team at every age group and there is no doubt that with Anna's determination, that will be achieved very soon!
Anna’s success didn’t stop there; as in January 2025 her efforts were rewarded by the ECB with The Metro Bank Champion Of Girls’ Cricket national award!

DISABILITY CRICKET CHAMPIONS
SHOWCASE: EMBRACING THE ECB DISABILITY CHAMPION CLUB PROGRAMME IN SUSSEX
The England & Wales Cricket Board’s Disability Champion Club (DCC) programme, supports the development of players and delivery of disability cricket across the county, through guidance, resource and equipment, welcoming individuals with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) to play, officiate and volunteer within recreational cricket, contributing and supporting to both the local and wider community.
Throughout 2024 the DCC network hosted several Disability County Championship fixtures, as well as both integrated and individualised coaching sessions for children, young people and adults.
The Sussex Cricket Foundation is proud of its heritage and continued success within the world of disability cricket; recognised as national leaders, with an average of 3.5 DCCs per county, Sussex is one of two counties leading the way, with a total of 8 DCCs located across the county:
Ansty CC / Burgess Hill CC / Buxted Park CC / Eastergate CC / Pevensey CC / Polegate & Stone Cross CC / Preston Nomads CC / Storrington CC
One club in particular continues to go above and beyond the national and countywide expectation of being recognised as a Disability Champion Club. They fully embrace disability cricket and the SEND community. They continue to succeed year on year, examples of this include:
• Representational committee members
• Exclusive fundraising and sponsorship
• Membership opportunities
• Personal & social development workshops
• Bespoke soft ball training & fixtures
We talked to Ansty Cricket Club’s President, Allie Young about how they started with the programme and what they’ve managed to achieve so far:
“After some in depth planning, Ansty started talking to Sussex Cricket Foundation in May 2021 following hosting a successful Super 1s club at our ground.
We began by organising training outdoors on Saturday mornings with a group of 12 players and a policy that all under 18 years should be accompanied by a parent or carer for the duration of the session.
This quickly led to the emergence of an immensely supportive communication network within the parent group and we soon realised that the players had ongoing needs - not just to partake and understand seasonal cricket, teamwork and the benefits of physical exercise but also for year round activities to complement winter indoor training including pastoral and enrichment events.”
We therefore now embrace a wide range of social and educational sessions that include ten pin bowling, paintballing, well-being, learning Makaton, First Aid, yoga, skittles, regular table cricket and our annual awards evening.”
“ ONE CLUB IN
PARTICULAR CONTINUES
TO GO ABOVE AND BEYOND… “
“Our dedicated committee of players, parents, coaches and club representatives guides the group fundraising, sponsorship and financial initiatives that allow Ansty DCC to be a financially self-supporting group of currently 24 participants while club membership for all the families underpins integration with the cricket club.
This also enables our disabled players who fall outside the 12-25 year age range (that is funded by the Lords Taverners) to continue to participate in our volunteer led training.
In 2025 we are planning to introduce walking cricket for mixed able and disabled players, and will continue to work with local MenCap groups to deliver cricket sessions.”
HOW DO CLUBS APPLY TO REGISTER AS A DISABILITY CHAMPION CLUB?
Contact our Disability Cricket Manager, Tom Belcher who will provide support and guidance, connecting clubs with their local SEND community and support with the ECB’s application process.
In addition, clubs will be required to provide a Disability Development Plan (completed with support from the Disability Cricket Manager) to ensure a sustainable model and offer is achieved.

2024 has been another great year for cricket in Sussex, and this Impact Report sets out how the Sussex Cricket Foundation is providing ever-increasing opportunities for people across the county to get into the game.
We reach all ages, from delivery of the All Stars Cricket programme for 5–8 year olds through to our growing Walking Cricket programme and Sporting Memories coffee mornings, both for the older generations.
Disability Cricket in Sussex had its best year to date, including our first Disability Cricket Weekend at The 1st Central County Ground, which saw matches played by both the Visually Impaired and D40 teams. 2024’s DIScoverABILITY Day, which introduces cricket to people living with disabilities, was once again a resounding success.
We also reach people from a diverse range of backgrounds, and I’m pleased to say that we are developing ambitious plans for even more delivery of cricket in state secondary schools. Watch this space!
And I say this at every opportunity, but I am particularly delighted that women’s and girls’ cricket continues to grow in Sussex. It has been the second year of our Aldridge@BACA Sussex Women’s Premier League, and SCF offers cricket to girls both in and outside school, as well as increasing opportunities for women to play soft ball and hard ball forms of the game. The Sussex Cricket League also continues to thrive, with 370 teams – the biggest league in the country.
There are many, many people to thank for this success. It simply wouldn’t happen without the dedication of Gary Wallis-Taylor, our Director of Community Cricket, and his team in the Foundation.
The trustees continue to offer their encouragement and support across so many areas of what we do, and I am grateful for their time.
And my thanks go to all those who give to the Foundation in myriad other ways – whether through their volunteering or through their donations, which help the Foundation to bring cricket to even more people.
I look forward to an exciting year in 2025!
PETE FITZBOYDON Sussex Cricket, Chief Executive
I started as CEO of Sussex Cricket just under a year ago, and a big part of the attraction for me was that we are an integrated organisation; the Foundation and Cricket Club are one. This is about far more than just unity, as our aims are intrinsically linked in having a positive effect on the Sussex community. Indeed, we are reliant on each other, with the work of the Foundation inspiring the next generation of cricket lovers across the county.
We recently held a series of Roadshow events at cricket clubs across Sussex, and it was clear from the many people I spoke to that the Foundation’s work is extremely impactful. In a fast-changing world with an ever-increasing number of things to compete for people’s attention, the Foundation’s work has never been more vital to make sure cricket remains a sport for everyone.
As can be seen in this report, the results are exceptional, and we hope that this will only grow in the years to come!
