Walking Cricket At Three Hills

Are you 50 or over and ever thought about having a go at cricket?

This lower impact version of cricket is aimed to attract past players, those who feel they are unable to continue playing cricket, through to those who would like to try a new activity or get active. We also aim to attract past players, those who feel they are unable to continue playing cricket, and those who would like to try a new activity or get active.

The sessions are run by Folkestone CC coach Malcolm Porter who has just won the:-
2023 KCCT Coach Of The Award.
Malcom supported the first KCCT ‘Cricket and Tea’ event that the Trust ran through his club Folkestone CC. Seeing the value in what the Trust was starting to develop in the community and the introduction of Walking Cricket, Malcom has gone on to coach most of the KCCT Walking Cricket groups and at various events across South-East Kent. He has also been a champion for those living with dementia and the positive benefits that not only cricket can have as an activity but the social element of ‘Cricket and Tea’ bringing people together to connect. Malcom is a great role model for Walking Cricket and his involvement has been a major part of the success of the growth of Walking Cricket in the last year.
