Kent Cricket’s Community Team, working in partnership with the ACE Programme & Cricket4London, will be running a variety of activities around the ground during the match, including:

• Schools’ Day Outs; following on from the successful model of local schoolchildren enjoying a taste of red-ball cricket at Canterbury over many years. Various activities will run through both days, with schools invited from the area local to Beckenham & Bromley. Stalls will also showcase local cricket organisations & the ACE Programme.
• A Community Day; where local cricket clubs & community groups will be involved throughout the day, alongside a Caribbean party atmosphere to celebrate the visit of the West Indies Men’s Test side.

More details on these special activities will be confirmed shortly.

If you would like your community organisation, club or group to get involved in our match day activities, please contact our Community team members, Asher Roberts or Christian Rice.
