• To train coaches and teachers to expand “in school and after school” youth cricket programs which are tailored to providing a positive experience for students and youth, while making a positive impact in the local communities of the youth that participate.

• To sponsor, local, national and international cricket sporting events for all age groups of junior cricket players as well as national awards, status, rankings and recognition events and statistics on US and national youth cricket programs.
