PUTTING CRICKET BACK INTO LONDONS PARKS By installing new cricket facilities across the capital we are providing more and more people with the opportunity to get active and play cricket. New cricket facilities courtesy of the London Cricket Trust have been installed across London since 2018 The work isnt done yet plans are underway for a further 18 new cricket facilities AT Ten Sites to be installed by the end of 2025 Nonturf pitches have a range of benefits that improve performance and increase participation They offer a consistent performance that a natural turf pitch cannot guarantee allowing bowlers and batsman to develop their technique A poorly maintained or tired grass pitch can be dangerous and detrimental to the development of young cricketers Minimal maintenance is required and very little preparation is needed before matches. An NTP can last up to and beyond 10 years if it is well looked after with minimal costs associated with it. HOW WE MAKE A DIFFERENCE INSTALL FACILITIES LCT is working with the ECB and the four counties to reverse the decline in the number of cricket facilities in Londons parks and will have facilitated the installation of more than 100 new facilities across the capital between 2018 and 2024.
