We’re also publishing our Impact Report today, detailing our work from September 2022 – August 2023.

We delivered cricket coaching to 604,283 young people, working in 4,357 state primary schools and running 268 Street cricket clubs.

Chance to Shine Chief Executive Laura Cordingley said: “Reaching 7 million young people through our programmes is a milestone we are tremendously proud of. As always this year’s impact report celebrates not just our scale, but the lasting effect these programmes have in schools and underserved communities - developing young people in ways that extend far beyond the playground.”
