We know that volunteers are the life blood of cricket and we want to provide you with the skills, confidence, and leadership qualities to help you thrive in future roles.
The DCF (Derbyshire Cricket Foundation) are launching a network of young people to provide a platform for young voices to be heard and create volunteers of the future. This idea has come directly from the Derbyshire Cricket Youth Council (made up of young people from cricket clubs in Derbyshire) and is FREE to access!
We want to communicate directly with young people aged 14-18 who are passionate about cricket, whether that is as a player or volunteer and equip them with life skills that can make a different in sport and future careers.
We are delighted to say we have dates confirmed for the initial 6 workshops with dates in Feb and April School holidays. All days will run 9am-3pm

We are providing a North and South option for all workshops with venues based on the current sign ups. The North venue should hopefully be confirmed ASAP but is likely to be in the Derbyshire Dales/Chesterfield area.
A reminder that all workshops are FREE and places will be limited.
This opportunity is available to anyone involved at a DCF affiliated Cricket Club or on a DCF community programme.
