    Firstly, I am very thankful to my parents who helped me as they bought some useful stationary items for my project work. I am also thankful to my PHYSICAL EDUCATION subject teacher MR.VIJAY SIR who provided such a nice topic to make a project on it. I had taken reference from “ENCARTA EDUCATIONAL SOFTWARE and also from INTERNET”. INTRODUCTION:- Cricket is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams of 11 players on a field, at the centre of which is a rectangular 22-yard long pitch. One team bats, trying to score as many runs as possible while the other team bowls and fields, trying to dismiss the batsmen and thus limit the runs scored by the batting team. A run is scored by the striking batsman hitting the ball with his bat, running to the opposite end of the pitch and touching the crease there without being dismissed. The teams switch between batting and fielding at the end of an innings. In professional cricket the length of a game ranges from 20 overs of six bowling deliveries per side to Test cricket played over five days. The Laws of Cricket are maintained by the International Cricket Council (ICC) and the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) with additional Standard Playing Conditions for Test matches and One Day Internationals. Cricket was first played in southern England in the 16th century. By the end of the 18th century, it had developed into the national sport of England. The expansion of the British Empire led to cricket being played overseas and by the mid-19th century the first international matches were being held.

  • EACF Case for Support Overview2
    “CHARACTER THROUGH CRICKET” Programme EACF’s mission is to transform the lives of disadvantaged young East Africans through cricket and education. Focussing on 12 primary schools in slum areas of Nairobi, Kenya and 4 state secondary schools, our dual-purpose Cricket and Character Education programme aims to develop young, disadvantaged people through an educational programme delivered by the coaching and playing of cricket and to effect systemic educational and social change. We aim to achieve our objectives by consciously and intentionally nurturing through our programme those values, skills and attitudes that matter most so that young people can reach their potential at school, at home, in their communities and in the workplace. We aim to achieve long-term educational and social change by helping schools to develop a broader educational ethos, by creating new pathways into secondary and tertiary education (currently denied very many young Kenyans) and by creating new urban community cricket clubs to operate outside of schools with much wider social and educational purposes beyond cricket. 1: The importance of character If young people are to lead successful lives, their educational experience must give them much more than academic qualifications. Research in USA by Dr. Martin Seligman and Dr. Angela Duckworth at Pennsylvania University identifies seven key character traits that, they argue, serve as the very best predictors of personal and professional success. These are: ENTHUSIASM - PERSEVERANCE - SELF-CONTROL - OPTIMISM - GRATITUDE - SOCIAL INTELLIGENCE - CURIOSITY. These are the values, skills and attitudes – all of which combine to form our characters - that matter most if young people are to become well-integrated, good citizens and effective performers in the workplace.
