Soft Ball Cricket
Sussex Cricket Foundation
A summary
Softball cricket is a simplified and inclusive version of cricket that uses a soft, lightweight ball and adaptable rules to make the game safe and accessible for participants of all abilities. It is commonly delivered in schools and community settings, with flexibility around pitch size, equipment, and game structure to suit players’ needs.
For young people from the SEND community, softball cricket offers a positive introduction to physical activity by reducing fear of injury and pressure to perform. It supports the development of coordination, communication, and teamwork, while also building confidence, self‑esteem, and social connections. The adaptable nature of the game ensures participants can take part at their own pace, feel included, and enjoy being part of a team sport.

My experience consists of a leisure activity, on a specific date(s), and therefore the 14-day ‘cooling off period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 does not apply.
