We are told English cricket is about to put serious money into counties, cricket facilities and recreational club support, but the tougher question is whether the game has the leadership capacity to turn that into a genuinely thriving ecosystem?
On 21 May (2-3pm) Cricket Research Network is hosting a webinar discussion on “Beyond cathedrals and congregations: building leadership for cricket’s ecosystem”, using the article in this month’s The Cricketer as a springboard to ask what kinds of leadership, at club, county and ECB levels, are needed for the long‑term growth and sustainability of the whole game.
Ex Leicestershire CEO Sean Jarvis and leadership expert John Neal – former ECB Head of Coach Development – will respond to a short introductory proposition from John Swannick of Cricket Club Development Network orchestrated by Rafaelle Nicholson , Guardian cricket correspondent and chair of Cricket Research Network.
If you’re concerned how cricket will be running in the next 5, 10 or 20 years, this session is for you.
