CRICKET SOUTH AFRICA (CSA) today launched the School in the Box initiative at the Nelson Mandela Sports Complex in Hammanskraal as part of the Standard Bank RPC/Hubs Programme. The project will be rolled out as a pilot ahead of the 2018/19 season, functioning at three Hubs in Langa, Dobsonville and Hammanskraal. School in the Box is an interactive, tablet-based education tool that is designed by exceptional teachers across the country, using the very best informative content available. Learners log in and select the subject, section and lesson in which they need assistance or reinforcement. This tool is aimed at providing an added value to the existing RPC/Hubs Programme, which culminates in the annual Standard Bank RPC U17 Week featuring the very best RPCs from around the country. The objective of the programme is to improve the quality and the number of cricket matches played within the previously disadvantaged areas and, in doing so, will create and nurture the love of cricket among the black communities. It is aimed at helping to develop quality black African cricketers who will contribute positively towards the CSA pipeline and create more parity in the number of matches played in comparison to that of the former model C & private schools. CSA has adopted a three-prong approach in developing the country’s future Proteas, focusing on cricket, education and nutrition.
