Schools Programs

One of Cricket NSW's core objectives is to ensure that Australia's favourite sport has a positive impact at all levels of education. 

Cricket NSW is committed to working together with schools to help promote a healthy, active lifestyle amongst school-aged children. Whilst aimed primarily at a K-6 audience, our school-based programs ensure cricket can be used as an effective vehicle to drive a whole school approach towards this outcome, whilst simultaneously aligning with the movement skill and physical activity strands of the reformed 2027 syllabi for both K-6 & 7-10.
