Europe Cricket Day
Spirit of Cricket Day, Skwierzyna, Poland - May 1st 2004
Magdalena Pospieszna and Marcin Pospieszny of the Polish Cricket Association organised and ran a one day 'Introduction to Cricket' event in the town of Skwierzyna in the west of Poland on May 1st 2004. This event, like the similar event in Gorzów held a day later, was part of the ICC European Development Program’s Spirit of Cricket Weekend initiative, and was aimed at introducing cricket to children in Poland. The event in Skwierzyna was attended by around thirty children between the ages of 10 and 13. The day began with a brief talk on the history and general idea of the game by Magdalena Pospieszna (the Vice President of the PCA), and was followed by a number of cricket related activities, a drinks break and ended with a series of kwik-cricket matches. All participants were rewarded with a surprise present of a cricket t-shirt, kindly provided by the ECC Development Office.
