Over 100 children participated in the kid's cricket clinic at Richard Presser Park , Central Ave, Hartsdale on Sunday, August 25, 2019. Greenburgh is the first locality in Westchester to promote cricket. The cricket field opened in June- a few months after many residents requested the opportunity to enjoy the sport. A cricket committee organizes practice games every Sunday morning. It's my hope that county and other local officials as well as school districts around the county will recognize the demand for cricket and will create additional cricket fields. There is definitely a demand.
IF school districts would allow cricket to be played on their fields - they will prepare children to enjoy one of the world's most popular sports. It's a worthwhile sport to learn. There could also be scholarship opportunities.
