Super 1's arrives in Herefordshire

20 May 2022   |   By Kirsty Sockett

Super 1s is a recent cricketing success story that has now come to Herefordshire. It offers young people with disabilities, aged 12-25, the opportunity to regularly play cricket. 

Through the creation of a community cricket hub, funded by the Lords Taverner's charity,  Herefordshire Cricket can deliver free coaching and the chance to play regular sport for those with disabilities.

The intention is to develop the physical and mental well-being of players, help them make friends and interact with positive role models. This is much more than just getting cricket bats into hands. It’s about everyone’s potential in life, regardless of circumstances.

Regular sport can build skills that some of us take for granted or have never even thought about. Confidence, leadership and independence.
