The evening featured hundreds of women, girls and boys taking part in an All Stars Cricket session for local five- to eight- year olds, a girls-specific session as part of a programme funded by Active Sussex and a Women’s Softball Festival.
In attendance were representatives from local cricket clubs, the local council, Active Sussex, the England & Wales Cricket Board (ECB) and Sussex Cricket, including chief executive Rob Andrew, chair of the Sussex Cricket Foundation Jon Filby and fast bowler Abi Sakande, who is a trustee of the foundation.
