New 'Kids at Lord's' pages

Date released: 16 October 2007

There have been many additions to the lords.org website over the recent weeks and months. One of our new sections is the 'Kids at Lord's' pages.

MCC is always trying to encourage the next generation of cricket players, coaches and spectators.

The 'Kids at Lord's' pages bring together many of the initiatives, activities and facilities available to younger visitors to the 'The Home of Cricket'.

The MCC Indoor School runs coaching classes for various age groups as well as hosting the London Youth Games, Table Cricket and Blind Cricket tournaments.
