Cricket Let's Play USA Overview
|
Cricket Let’s Play USA is new, introductory kids program that hopes to underpin cricket activity across the US. CLPUSA introduces American children to cricket in a fun environment while addressing FUNdamental movement skills that are part of most elementary school curriculum. CLPUSA hopes to provide US cricket’s strong volunteer network with a program that engages girls and boys, teachers and parents and fosters great passion for cricket, hoping to create a lifelong involvement with the game. The program will introduce more kids aged 6 – 13 to cricket and maintain their involvement with the game and carry this through into junior teams, academies and leagues to create more long-term cricketers across the US. Over the coming month USACA will release some resources that will help cricket’s valuable stakeholders to implement the CLPUSA program.
The program includes a targeted ‘pilot’ in Florida and New York initially, but support and assistance is available nationwide. USACA seeks to have a regional staff member supporting volunteers around the country to implement this program. As such, we are calling on willing volunteer coaches / facilitators to become involved and implement a schools based program in your Region. For more information about the program, please call the USACA office on (561) 839 1888 or visit:
