KFC Mini Cricket seminar

OUDTSHOORN CRICKET NEWS - South Africa's leading cricket development programme, KFC Mini Cricket, recently received a boost for SWD Cricket at the annual KFC Mini Cricket Provincial Seminar.

Coaches, volunteers, admini-strators, key stakeholders and coordinators gathered at the Makietie Venue in Volmoed (Oudtshoorn) to listen to how the season will unfold.

The 2021/22 KFC Mini Cricket Provincial Seminar was hosted in person for the first time in two years with limited delegates and guests.

Those who could not attend in person did so virtually. Virtual attendees were from Central Karoo, Hessequa, Knysna, Mossel Bay and Plettenberg Bay.

SWD KFC Mini Cricket coordinator, Genevieve Anthony, was beaming with joy at the opportunity to host the KFC Mini Cricket seminar as last year's seminar was hosted online due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.

"The seminars are important as they lay the foundation for our season," Anthony commented.

The overarching theme of this year's KFC Mini Cricket festival is "Imvuselelo" or "Recovery" as South Africa continues to recover and rebuild from the devastating impact of the Covid pandemic.

KFC Mini Cricket provides a platform for kids in South Africa to have fun and be active.

It is the biggest grassroots development sports programme in South Africa and is also an essential building block for learning cricketing basics and entrenching a love for the game.
