Nestled in National Trust woodland, the picturesque Outwood is home to a growing cricket section, and a successful women’s section founded in 2019.
Lacuna Sports was delighted to collaborate with the MCC Foundation to provide tops for their 2024 Regional Springboard programme, which offers their most talented players the chance to train with elite coaches and compete in regional tournaments.
“MCCF are proud to be partnering with Lacuna Sports as part of our 2024 Springboard Programme. Lacuna’s commitment to supporting women and girls in the game means that we can provide our female participants with kit which is designed for them. Ensuring everyone feels comfortable when they take to the field is paramount in breaking down barriers that exist for girls in cricket. We are delighted to be working with such an innovative partner and look forward seeing how we can continue to make the game more inclusive.”
Angus Berry, Operations Director MCCF
Based at Lord’s Ground in London, the MCC Foundation is a cricket charity delivering projects across the UK and around the world. They provide free coaching and match play in order to empower all boys and girls to reach their full potential in the game, to unite and inspire communities, and to promote physical and mental wellbeing.
The purpose of the Foundation is to encourage and promote the playing and understanding of sport by promoting, educating, inspiring and providing access to sporting opportunities.
“The kit is great, fits fine and working with design team was relatively simple and easy.”
– Marianna, Outwood CC
The club left the decisions to the girls themselves, and they selected their favourite design and pieces to suit the various ages (11-16) in the programme.
Both Spin and Pace designs in tops and trousers were provided, so each girl has their perfect fit. A Ponyflo cap with a club logo patch made a nice option for some of the younger girls who wanted a piece of kit but didn’t quite need teamwear yet. A lovely turquoise cotton hoodie was offered as well as a piece of training wear, and girls of all ages have loved the colour.
“IT’S SO MUCH MORE COMFORTABLE FOR BOWLING THAN THEIR PE KIT… THE TROUSERS FIT BEAUTIFULLY”
