The Mzansi Super League Future Stars Store, an initiative created to benefit deserving young cricketers through the donation of cricket kit, visited the Langa Cricket Club this weekend.  The Initiative, which formed a part of the inaugural Mzansi Super League, called on cricket fans to bring any unused cricket equipment to tournament host stadiums to be donated to this worthy cause.  Ahead of the tournament final, deserving young cricketers were invited to the Cricket South Africa (CSA) Langa hub to be the recipients of the kit donated by South African cricket fans.On the day, the kit was delivered to the Langa hub in a pop-up shop installation, giving underprivileged cricketers from around the Western Cape the chance to select gear and be fitted and inspired by Cape Town Blitz players, Anrich Nortje and Malusi Siboto (who grew up in Langa). Throughout the tournament, fans were encouraged to donate cricket equipment through an amnesty set-up which saw the Future Stars pop-up store visit all six stadiums.  Fans visiting the store could swap their donations for a limited-edition team supporters’ shirt.  From bats, to pads, helmets, balls, boots and shirts, the set-up saw fans donating gear in their numbers.
