We have a nice venue at Broadstairs Cricket Club with a full agenda of support items and input from James Moss, Senior Manager from Kent Community Cricket, who will be sharing information about the Chance to Shine and Dynamos Cricket programmes, including free teaching resources. Please let me know if you will be joining us so that I can ensure we have enough cake and biscuits! Don't forget that cover for your attendance counts as eligible expenditure from your PE and Sports Premium money.
