Dubai, UAE – Young cricket enthusiasts were treated to a day of learning, fun, and inspiration at the Sevens Stadium in Dubai as part of the ICC’s Cricket4Good clinic on Sunday, 29 September 2024. The event was held alongside the official warm-up match between New Zealand and South Africa, ahead of the much-anticipated ICC Women’s T20 World Cup.

More than 50 boys and girls, aged 8 to 14, participated in the interactive clinic, where they received valuable cricketing tips from players and coaches of both teams.

Players and coaches shared insights from their personal journeys, offering young fans a glimpse into the discipline, dedication, and values needed to succeed both on and off the field.
