Howzattt Cricket is passionate about making cricket inclusive to everyone, giving those who never had the chance, the opportunity to play and dream of cricketing stardom one day. Our “Howzattt - A Beginner’s Guide to the game of Cricket”, available as a paperback or a downloadable digital E-book, aims to bring cricket to a whole new audience and generation of cricket loving boys and girls.
At Howzattt, we firmly believe in the transformative power of education and empowerment. Our commitment and mission is to create a profound impact on communities and individuals, by unlocking new realms of opportunity for all through playing and getting involved in cricket. The triumph of our South African Over 40s Veterans in the 2024 World Cup serves as a testament to the boundless possibilities of cricket, and that age and circumstance should never be a barrier!
Our vision extends beyond boundaries, as we strive to democratize access to cricket across our nation and throughout the African continent, by making it accessible to everyone. We firmly believe there is endless untapped potential out there and we want to be a part of discovering and helping to cultivate new cricketing stars.
Yet, we cannot achieve this vision alone. It is through collaboration and support that we can truly nurture the grassroots of cricket. We invite both individuals and corporate entities to join us. By sponsoring and promoting grassroots cricket, you not only invest in the future of the sport but also in the development and enrichment of communities.
Together, let us embark on a journey of empowerment, fostering talent, and building a legacy that transcends generations to come, and shows the rest of the world that South Africa and the African continent are overflowing with tomorrow’s cricket stars.
