This year’s Get Set Weekend (formerly CricketForce) will take place on the weekend of 26/27 March. Click here to register.
The weekend is designed to bring clubs and local communities closer together, and ensure grounds and facilities are ready for the new season.
The ECB has added some digital assets to the ECB Resource Hub to help you promote your Get Set Weekend.
If done well, your Get Set Weekend will encourage cricket supporters, their friends, and families to give something back to their cricket club by volunteering to undertake small or large renovations to clubhouses and grounds. It is a great way to bring the club together and make sure that the club is ready for the new season. How large the project is does not matter, it’s about bringing the club together at the start of the season and finding new volunteers while carrying out jobs that are needed.
You may choose to run your Get Set Weekend on a different weekend to the national initiative. The most important thing is that you use the idea of getting your club together as a means of completing key pre-season tasks and harnessing the benefits and impact of bringing your membership together in a sociable but productive way.
