Nice work Ayesha, In my opinion, having been part of grassroots cricket in Regina some years ago, (teaching kids and playing occasionally), the best way to promote and development womens' cricket in the province is to do it without the interference of the Regina Cricket outfit, an amateur, non-regulated body that has a checkered and dysfunctional past with cricket development in Saskatchewan. It was once funded, two times by the province, and had that funding revoked because of questionable governance. The development of women's cricket would do better to look at other supporting organizations to help promote the game; such as Girls In the Game for instance. HOWZAT!!
