Volunteers and Coaches Required for Cricket Without Boundaries

Cricket Without Boundaries is a community development and HIV / Aids awareness charity operating in Africa. Since its establishment in 2005 the charity has coached over 15,000 children and trained 1,500 new ICC coaches across Africa with an additional emphasis on raising Aids awareness.

Based on our success since our Trust was established, we are now looking to recruit volunteers to deliver projects in Kenya, Rwanda, Botswana and Uganda.

We are looking for general sports enthusiasts, qualified and unqualified, for these projects taking place in September, October and November 2011 . We are specifically looking for Project Leaders, Coaches (all levels), Coach and Umpire Tutors, photographers and general volunteers who have no coaching experience (training will be given to bring non coaches up to Introductory Coach level) who are:

  • Motivated by helping others
  • Able to work on own initiative
  • Good communicators
  • Able to complete an ECB Criminal Records Bureau Enhanced Check
  • Able to raise funds to support the project
  • Interested in working in Africa

Each project will require 2 weeks to be spent in Africa and attendance at a training weekend in the UK leading up to departure.

The projects will include working with local schools, delivery of HIV / Aids awareness messages, training local people as coaches, umpires and scorers and acting as a representative of Cricket Without Boundaries within local communities.

Closing date for all applications is Friday 11th March, 5pm.

Interviews will be held for all shortlisted volunteers on Saturday 2nd April 2011 at The Oval. More
