Berkshire Cricket encourages and supports clubs to achieve Clubmark which is a recognition of best practice for cricket clubs.
Clubmark
is the ECB's national accreditation and is used to create a
benchmark for high quality community club cricket.
There
are a number of people and organisations who will support
your club through the ECB Clubmark process; including your
County Cricket Board, County Sports Partnership and Local
Authority Sports Development.
County Development Manager,
Mark Roche is the
first point of call for support and questions.
ECB Clubmark gives your club an opportunity to write and
implement new procedures as well as acknowledge existing
practices within your club. Cricket clubs are required to
present evidence and demonstrate implementation across four
different themes, and to have an endorsed Club Development
Plan.
How
does my club work towards and achieve ECB Clubmark?
ECB Clubmark intends to build upon the current practices
within your club. Each cricket club that registers to work
towards ECB Clubmark will approach the process in a
different way and be embarking on the process from
different starting positions. ECB Clubmark takes this in to
account allowing you to work through the process at your
own pace utilising existing polices and procedures within
your cricket club.
The emphasis of ECB Clubmark is self help. It is like
anything else in life, if someone else does it for you, you
never learn or change your ways. The support resources in
ECB Clubmark are intended to provide as much information as
possible to cricket clubs, to use, amend and adopt within
your individual club circumstances.
There are many templates and guidance notes that can be

Clubs
Throughout
Berkshire we have several clubs accredited with Clubmark
status. Alongside these many more are registered and
working towards it. Clubmark has been awarded to these
clubs in recognition of the professionalism and their
excellent conduct across many different areas of junior
cricket. Clubmark, once achieved, can help open up several
doors in terms of funding opportunities, subsidies and
other such benefits
