NEW DATE FOR  2024

OPENING-UP CRICKET – THURSDAY 30th MAY

On Thursday 30th May, Broadstairs CC will be hosting an evening workshop on mental well-being and suicide prevention through cricket. The workshop will be led by Mark Boyns, founder of Opening-Up Cricket (https://openingupcricket.com/), an organisation set-up in response to the death of Sefton Park CC wicket keeper, Alex Miller, and a will to promote positive mental health in sport.

Opening-Up Cricket is run by unpaid volunteers (a combination of current and ex-players/coaches as well as mental health professionals) with help from the National Lottery Community Fund who have provided a grant for sessions costs so that groups can receive them without charge.

The sessions are customised for each club and cover a range of themes including: mental skills & fitness for cricket; wellbeing; looking out for team mates; coping with setbacks; dealing with stress and pressure.
