Howzattt caught up with some extremely enthusiastic young cricket players/fans from the JP21 Foundation who are watchig the final of the International Masters Cricket Over 40s World Cup today between South Africa and New Zealand. They were all thrilled to get their Howzattt - A Beginner's Guide to the Game of Cricket from us, and were soon busy collecting autographs from the South African team.
Named for the well-known South African all rounder cricketer, J.P. Duminy, who saw a need to bring cricket to the underpriviliged communities and schools of the Western Cape, and give them hope of fulfilling their dreams.
According their mantra online (https://lnkd.in/dX9UhpYY) "the JP21 Foundation is based on a sincere commitment to reigniting the passion and enthusiasm for the game of cricket in underprivileged communities and schools, particularly in the Western Cape areas of Mitchells Plain and Strandfontein. Our long-term objectives are to promote a positive and healthy lifestyle and allowing learners to have fun at the same time, all while playing cricket".
Howzattt is so pleased to have been able to play a part in inspiring the children from this amazing foundation. Our mission is the same as the foundation- bring cricket to as many as possible, and find new stars, wherever we can!
We hope to be able to partner with them in future projects as well, and we urge companies and sponsors to help make their dreams come true.
