Hi! I'm Noel and I am hoping to raise some money to support my upcoming trip to play in the Junior World Series for England indoor cricket in South Africa,in September this year! As well as this, you will be helping me to support a children's charity in South Africa!

Cricket has been my passion since I was 12, playing for my local club Bradford and Bingley, where I now captain the U18 team and also play for the Men's second team. In 2024 I also started playing indoor cricket, training and playing each week with TCA. I was lucky enough to play for England last year in India in the emerging stars tour, where I was award the MVP trophy for my age group! After a difficult season this year, including an injury which kept me out for nearly 3 months, I was thrilled to be selected to represent my country again, this time in the Junior World Series in South Africa.

As well as other fund raising events, I, along with the support of my Mum, Dad and little brother, will be running a family 5k a day from 8th June - 8 July, to raise money to support my trip. I realise that I am extremely lucky to be given opportunities like this, and that some children around the world are not so fortunate, therefore I will be donating 25% of everything I raise through this page to the "SOS Children's Villages South Africa",

a non-governmental, non-profit organization that provides family-like care for orphaned, abandoned, and vulnerable children.

Thank you for your support and encouragement! Wish us luck!
