Following the successful rollout of Smash It and It’s Wicket! across the island in 2021, both programmes are returning to Clubs in 2022!
Smash It is for girls and boys aged 5 – 9 years and is all about kids being active, making friends and having fun. Developing Fundamental Movement Skills through cricked based games, Smash It is delivered over 6 – 8 sessions by Club Activators who receive training, resources, and programme clothing. Smash It Clubs will receive FREE a Club Kit full of all the equipment needed to run the Smash It sessions! Participants will receive a Smash It t-shirt, backpack, bat and ball once they register to participate at your Club. To find a Club near you and register to participate in Smash It, please visit www.smash-it.ie

It’s Wicket! introduces girls to cricket through skill-based activities and games and encourages girls to own their cricketing experience. It’s Wicket! is made up of 6 sessions that your Club can run in a way that works best for it with Activator training, resources and gear and full Club Kit provided (for FREE!) for those Clubs that register to host. Participants will receive an It’s Wicket! t-shirt, backpack, bat and ball once they sign up to the programme.
