Cricket Without Boundaries

On Christmas Day Radio 5 Live carried a special feature about an innovative and remarkably successful charity called Cricket Without Boundaries which combines cricket coaching in sub-Saharan Africa with AIDS/HIV education. The podcast can be found here. Worth a listen.

If anyone is interested, a fellow County junior coach (Martin Fears from Shropshire) is heading out to Botswana this Easter to coach for the CWB project.

If you would like to sponsor/help fundraise, the link is: Martin Fears is fundraising for Cricket Without Boundaries

I've played in such games. Our coach used to use them as training exercises (improves both fitness and cricket skills (particularly throwing/relay throwing).
Sucks if your batting partner is a big hitter and fast runner. After running two nines in a row I had to fake an injury and retire hurt (I gave up the cigs eventually/peahearted).
