OVER one hundred youth cricketers from Cricket South Africa’s (CSA) RPC and Hubs programs will enter into this season’s National Age Group Youth Week tournaments with a full set of new cricket equipment courtesy of New Balance South Africa. Today New Balance South Africa proved their commitment in developing the underprivileged youth in the game of cricket by making a R.1.4-million investment. CSA’s official technical partner made the announcement at the Khayelitsha Hub in Cape Town today. A total of 119 players – boys and girls - from the RPC and Hubs programs have been selected to represent their provincial teams in age group cricket and the timely investment from New Balance serves as the perfect confidence booster for the children ahead of their respective tournaments.The first set of kit was officially handed out today to 19 players from the Western Cape area that have been selected to play for their province at the various National Age Group Youth Weeks.Last season, New Balance also assisted with kit handover to deserving players from the RPC and Hubs program. However, this season’s handover is a major contribution to CSA’s development program and entrenches New Balance’s commitment to cricket development.
