Volunteer with Cricket Without Boundaries – Spring 2027

Cricket Without Boundaries (CWB) is seeking passionate volunteers from across the UK to join our Spring 2027 volunteer projects. Spend two unforgettable weeks using cricket as a tool for education, inclusion and positive social change while working alongside inspiring local partners in Africa, Asia and South America.

Around the world, cricket is often described as “more than a game.” But what does that really mean in practice?

Keere Cricket Academy in Kumi, Uganda continues to grow as a vibrant community cricket hub, with recent support from Cricket Without Boundaries (CWB) helping to accelerate this progress. Regular coaching visits over the past month have increased awareness and participation, particularly among girls, who remain central to the academy’s development approach. Continued funding will allow this momentum to translate into lasting impact for children and families in the Keere community.

Cricket4WASH was created to answer a simple but powerful question: can cricket help young people turn WASH knowledge into everyday healthy behaviour? In Karjanha Municipality, Nepal, this idea was tested through a new Cricket + WASH Playbook.

Two years ago, the Marylebone Biratnagar Jwala Cricket Ground was nothing more than open fields.

In the late 1990’s three friends at university, Ed Williams, Chris Kangis and Andy Hobbs had a dream that one day they would travel across Africa on local transport and coach cricket in the townships.

After close to a decade of volunteering with CWB Gary has now taken over as Chair of Trustees so we thought it would be good to catch up with him and ask a few questions about why he is still involved and his journey so far.

Cricket Without Boundaries is a volunteer-led organisation. We’re really proud of the volunteers in our partner countries who, following training from our Tutors and Ambassadors, keep inspiring children through cricket.

One of CWB’s three main goals is to link the game to messages and action on health and social issues. That’s why we’re pleased to share our new COVID-19 health education flashcards and activities pack.
