Dortmund CC Youth Development
Dortmund CC was established in 1987 group of young people who shared a passion for cricket. This small team of youths, all under 21 years of age, quickly grew to a club of almost 50 budding cricketers and eventually produced 2 of Germany’s national cricket team’s players.
It’s clear to see the benefits clubs such as Dortmund offer to youths and the wider community, yet without the security of having our own grounds, our youth development activities are severely impeded. Currently, we rely on cricket pitches in Bochum, Koln and Bonn, leaving opportunities infrequent and unreliable.
As a result of the significant publicity and recognition our club has earned over the years, more and more schools, universities and independent youths are eager to join our club and engage with our activities. Unfortunately, we do not have the necessary resources or facilities to support such rapid growth in membership.
Yet we still hold hope that we will gain the support from and that we can work in alliance with sports verbande in Dortmund to create a strong cricketing community for the betterment of our youths.
