Schools all over the country enjoy a week of cricket-themed activity in both the classroom and playground during Yorkshire Tea National Cricket Week. It is a week when we all celebrate cricket in schools and runs in June - date to be advised for 2018.
Over 1,600 schools take part in this Chance to Shine event every year and turn their timetable over to cricket. Schools are provided with cross-curricular cricket lesson plans, from teaching coordinates of a cricket field in Maths to pinpointing cricket playing countries in Geography.
As part of their support for the event, Yorkshire Tea will be giving out tea samples to all schools and clubs that sign up for the event.
Cricket East would love to hear your planned cricket activities during National Cricket Week. If you are planning an activity please let us know by emailing sally.church@cricketeast.co.uk.
