Cricket charity establishes website
Staff & Agencies - 8 January 2001

The Primary Club, which raises money to provide sports facilities for schools and clubs for the visually impaired, has established its own website.

The site (address primaryclub.org) has been set up to increase awareness of the Primary Club, and to encourage new members to join. Anyone who has been out first ball, at any level of the game, and all those who love cricket and support the Club's objectives are eligible to join.

One of the biggest projects run by the Primary Club in 1999 was to sponsor summer schools at Dorton House in Kent, run by the Royal London Society for the Blind. There were two residential courses, each lasting a week and attended by 22 youngsters aged between 11 and 17. Art, music, dance and drama featured, along with a variety of sports and games.

Primary Club members include Sunil Gavaskar (the only batsman in the history of the game to be dismissed three times by the first ball of a Test Match) David Gower and Patron Derek Underwood.

Members pay a joining subscription for which they receive a tie or ladies' brooch. Donations are voluntary thereafter. The funds finance projects at all levels of blind sport, and provide sporting and recreational equipment to over 30 schools and clubs for the visually impaired all over the United Kingdom.
