Today I share a success story.
One of our own Calvin a 14-year-old hit 66 runs to grant his team a win in the ongoing qualifiers.
This is a milestone for Cricket2Nurture in Uganda.
Calvin was among our first trainees when we started and only had one bat between 20 kids and used bricks as stumps.
It is really inspiring to see one of our participants reach such a stage and we have been fueled to do more.
On this note talent awareness is on. At C2N we believe that it's more than just cricket.
The world should get ready to receive responsible, caring, happy, educated, and happy men and women by using cricket as a masterpiece.
At the end not all will become professional cricketers but rather instil a spirit of togetherness in society that sport brings.
As a virus, Cricket to Nurture shall spread the love, joy, passion, engage, equip and empower the younger generation.
Join our cause with kind words, donate equipment, sponsor a kid, sponsor programs.
We believe many more lives can be changed under Cricket2Nurture.

Sport has the power to transform communities and individuals. There is a wonderful movie based on a true story, The Grizzlies, available on YouTube, about how the sport of lacrosse impacted a First Nations community in the far north of Canada.
But sport is also essential for maintaining healthy communities and individuals.
