Cricket Gear Reuse

Cricket Gear Reuse (CGR) is a project that aims to catalyse and support the acceleration of cricket gear and clothing reuse projects and behaviours.

Tools, Resources & Good Practice Guides

A series of tools, resources & good practice guides can be downloaded below to help set up cricket gear reuse schemes in clubs and/or leagues. It is recommended that the video on ‘How & Why To Run A Cricket Gear Reuse Scheme’ is watched first to give an overview of the issues in setting up a scheme & then the forms are reviewed.
