Free Online Club Development Workshops for Cricket Clubs

Hampshire Cricket Board is committed to helping clubs thrive both on and off the field. That’s why we’re proud to offer a dynamic series of Club Development Workshops, delivered in partnership with Buddle (formerly Club Matters) and supported by Sport England.

These workshops are designed to equip cricket clubs with the tools, knowledge, and confidence to grow sustainably, attract and retain volunteers, and create positive environments for all members.

What to Expect

Each workshop is free to attend and offers a welcoming, interactive space for committee members, coaches, volunteers, and anyone passionate about the success of their club. Topics are practical, relevant, and tailored to the needs of grassroots sport.
