Active Families, Strong Communities
Play with your entire family and see who wins!
Active Together

Our Family Cricket sessions bring children, parents and grandparents together to play, laugh and stay active. Each session is free to attend — funded by partners such as Sport England, the North East Combined Authority and local councils.

Whether you’re a parent looking for active fun with your kids or an organisation seeking to host or fund meaningful family activity, we’d love to talk. Join our next event or partner with us to bring one to your area.

Testimonials

I have two kids coming here - an eight-year-old daughter and a six-year-old son, they love coming to play cricket. It helps them to connect with others better.

Aniela, mum of two, Family Sessions, Byker

We've been coming for a year. It's really fun, and it's a great time to spend with my son. It's something new for him to learn at a really young age.
