The driving concept behind the programme is to start cricket at school level so that youngsters are exposed to the game at an early age. It seeks to adopt at least five schools every year as part of the programme implementation agenda.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family:trebuchet ms,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:1.6\">KCA will support the infrastructure and player development in the schools and be alert to spotting its available talent.Cricket seminars will be held in all districts of Kerala, where physical education teachers of schools will be invited to attend. They will be briefed by the Chief Research Development Officer about the activities of KCA and its plan to develop and nurture cricketing talent at school. As part of this initiative, cricket seminars have already been held in ten of the fourteen districts of Kerala and the response has been nothing short of overwhelming. &ldquo;Cricket@school&rdquo; identifies schools which are conducive to the idea of cricket development and helps to develop basic infrastructure facilities.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family:trebuchet ms,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:1.6\">It has also been decided to bring women&rsquo;s cricket into the fold. One, out of every five schools to be adopted in a year, will be a girl&rsquo;s school. There will be a review of the activities on a quarterly basis where any shortcomings and furthur development possibilities will be addressed. Kerala Cricket Association envisages that the future talent for our state will be tapped from this programme by broadening the cricket base in Kerala and developing a cricket culture that will pay huge dividends in the long run.<\/span><\/p>\r\n",
