Purpose

We use cricket to enrich lives and communities across Yorkshire.

Vision

By 2030, YCF will be recognised as a force for positive change using cricket to inspire healthier, happier and more connected communities and create lasting social impact.

Mission

We bring people together through cricket - enriching lives, supporting wellbeing and ensuring everyone in Yorkshire can access and enjoy the game.

Move from Regions to Areas

Stronger Local Relationships – Areas allow our teams to work more closely with community partners, clubs, leagues, schools and local groups. This means greater responsiveness, deeper
understanding of local needs, and enhanced collaboration.

Better Alignment with Communities – By changing to an area model this allows us to focus on need, accessibility, and opportunities leading to better alignment with our communities.

More Consistent Support Across Yorkshire – The move enables us to reduce duplication, streamline delivery, and ensure that every part of Yorkshire receives the same high-quality support and opportunities.

Clearer Communication and Engagement – Areas provide clarity so people know who their YCF contact is and how to access support. This means clearer pathways for clubs, leagues, volunteers, and community groups.

Focus on Social Impact – Our purpose is to enrich lives and communities, and this structure ensures we can measure, understand, and grow the positive impact cricket has across Yorkshire.
