New Reading Girls Street Project Continues to Grow

January 17, 2025

It’s hard to believe that it’s been just over three months since the launch of the brand-new Chance to Shine Girls Street Sessions at Kings Academy Prospect school in Reading. While the start was a little slow, we’ve seen fantastic growth, with more young girls from local schools joining the club each week. The session has quickly become a fun, dynamic environment where girls can get involved in softball cricket and enjoy all the excitement it brings!

 

Looking ahead to the year to come, we are excited to continue building on this momentum and watch the club grow even further. With the Chance to Shine Girls National Competition taking place in August, following the success of the Slough Girls-Only Street Team who won last year the vision is to enter the Reading Girls street club as well!

 

If you’d like to find out more about our sessions and how to join the club follow the link Street Cricket – Berkshire Cricket alternatively, contact our Women’s and Girls Development Officer, Michelle Jeyarajah, at [email protected]

 

We look forward to seeing many more young girls take part in the fun and development of this exciting club!
