About this cause

Swanage CC is a vibrant cricket club which aims to be a real part of the Purbeck community. We run Saturday league sides and friendly sides on Sundays. Over the last few years our junior section has increased from 30 members to over 100. We now run 8 teams including a girl's side. There is also Kwik Cricket for younger children and this year we also began Women's cricket. We run a local 6-a-side competition for non-cricketers. We provide coaching in the summer and inside training through the winter, all run by qualified coaches. We continue to invest in training to increase the number of coaches to give the best experience we can. We aim to provide the safest possible environment for children and adults, sending our volunteers on courses such as First Aid, safeguarding and food hygiene.

How this cause brings people in the community together

The main two aims of the cricket club over the last few years have been to firstly make it more part of the community and secondly to encourage younger players. We have been successful in these aims so far and this project will enable us to take these two aims forward into the future
