Big day to return again at Hove

The Sussex Cricket Foundation is delighted to announce that DISCOVERABILITY Day will return once again to the The 1st Central County Ground on Friday 10th May 2024 and will proceed back-to-back disability cricket fixtures on the hallowed turf at Hove.

Last year, another recordbreaking DISCOVERABILITY Day saw over 650 participants from 32 organisations, as well as 145 volunteers take to the field at The 1st Central County Ground for an action-packed day of batting, throwing, catching and bowling challenges, designed for all abilities and led by Sussex Cricket Foundation coaches.

For the first time ever the spectacular disability sport event, one of the largest in the southeast, will be followed by two amazing fixtures of disability cricket.

The first match will take place on Saturday 12th May and will see the Sussex Sharks VI (Visually Impaired) team take on Northamptonshire in a rescheduled cup final from 2023.

That will then be followed by a D40 Quest League fixture between Sussex D40 and Lancashire on Sunday 13th May. The flagship weekend will take place during the Foundation’s Disability Cricket Month, which will showcase the players, teams, volunteers, and programmes which help to make up disability cricket in Sussex.

Tom Belcher, Disability Cricket Manager for the Sussex Cricket Foundation is looking forward to an amazing weekend: “I am absolutely delighted to not only be able to announce DISCOVERABILITY Day, but to be able to announce DISCOVERABILITY Weekend, three days of fabulous fun and some highclass disability cricket.
