In August 2020, Tim and I would go out onto the cricket pitch and work on our cricket skills in preparation for the upcoming games.

As we were hitting balls a number of kids joined in to help return the balls and were so eager to know more about what we were doing.

Tim and I started to learn more about cricket at the age of 14 or 15 and these kids were much younger. We reflected on how much time it took us to develop our talents that bring us so much joy and how we can’t go a day without talking about cricket.

We started to provide coaching sessions 3 days a week and apply the coaching tips we received from mini cricket.

This was in Nakanyonyi, Jinja, Uganda. We had to improvise by using bricks as stumps and sticks to especially teach how to grip the bat.
