Super 1s is a community cricket programme for young people with disabilities aged 12-25 which has access and inclusion at the heart of it. It provides an opportunity to have fun playing cricket with friends every week and experience competitive sport with peers.
The programme goes beyond cricket – it helps individuals develop vital life skills that enable them to realise their potential. As our participants’ skills develop and friendships flourish, we see a growth in self-esteem, social skills and importantly, an increased awareness of what they can do, not what they can’t.
People living with disabilities who want to be active say that accessibility is a huge barrier – too often there is little on offer. Providing free and accessible Super 1s sessions in a familiar and welcoming setting is making all the difference.
