The Beyond Boundaries initiative has finally reached African shores.
This global mission intends to advance the game of cricket, especially in poorer communities, by distributing 50 repurposed shipping containers to grassroots cricket clubs around the world, each one kitted out with much-needed equipment.The Beyond Boundaries initiative began in India in October last year, just before the Men’s Cricket World Cup – with the iconic legend of the game – Sachin Tendulkar, its global ambassador.
Wanderers CEO Jono Leaf-wright says, “It’s significant for our players for Johannesburg for South Africa we try and drive and level the playing fields within the Lions franchise and certainly to get 250 kids in the hands of those in need and to see these little kids’ faces when they open them and receive them was something ill have in my mind forever and it certainly inspires us to continue driving change within our communities and the province.
Former Proteas bowler Allan Donald says, “What we do what we love doing is never done seeing a Kwena Maphaka, seeing a Kagiso Rabada; back then Makaya Ntini. It’s our job to make sure like these kids here today that they might well be a young Maphaka waiting in the wings or a young lady for that matter. It’s brilliant; it’s a magnificent initiative from DP World to take it this far and make such great effort and inroads into unearthing more young talent.
