Isle of Wight Cricket Board Structure
|
The Isle of Wight Cricket Board was created in April 2000, replacing the Isle of Wight County Cricket Association which was formed in 1948. The aims of the Board are:-
To encourage and promote the game of cricket at all levels on the Isle of Wight.
To be a channel of communication between member clubs and the England and Wales Cricket Board.
To organise and provide the facilities for the playing of representative cricket matches.
To organise competitive cricket between member clubs and organisations.
A Cricket Development Officer was appointed in February 1997, funded by the ECB, to promote and develop the policies contained within the Isle of Wight Cricket Board Development Plan.
This appointment has provided the opportunity for the Board to actively encourage and organise the introduction and continuation of cricket in primary and secondary schools, and establish links between schools and clubs by the introduction and extension of club junior sections.
