Cricket Without Boundaries [CWB] is a UK based charity dedicated to helping, educating and developing local communities around the World through the spread and growth of cricket. It is also about personal empowerment, both for adults and for children. The Charity uses the sport to help develop personal skills ranging from basic teamwork to self-discipline and leadership.

 

Through visits to schools and orphanages, organising tournaments, providing of equipment and coaching clinics for adults CWB is committed to taking the game of cricket to a new generation of coaches and children.

 

Through cricket's unifying qualities and the enthusiasm of others, CWB aims to bring diverse and often polarised communities together. In a world of ever-increasing religious and racial tension, cricket can be a great catalyst in uniting future generations.

 

However, CWB is not just about sustainable cricket development. Crucially it is also about using the game of cricket as a tool in the fight against the modern plague that is AIDS. CWB’s training sessions have at their heart discussion about the disease both in terms of prevention and treatment. The charity also stands for equality of treatment for those with the disease; children and adults regardless of their status are included in coaching, games and competitions.

 

In many cases this will simply involve laying the bare framework for later development: but this still remains the best of starts. After all, we are what we do.
