Through its Clean Bowl Racism and Let’s Hit Racism For Six campaigns ECB is committed that cricket should be welcoming to all areas of society irrespective of colour, religion, creed or race.
The Clean Bowl Racism campaign was launched by ECB prior to the 1999 Cricket World Cup and has been supplemented by the Let’s Hit Racism For Six campaign.
These campaigns have been endorsed by senior England players from both the men’s and women’s teams and they will be the ambassadors who carry the message that racism will not be tolerated in cricket.
The Commission for Racial Equality has already recognised that ECB is one of only three sporting organisations to reach the Intermediate Level in its Sporting Equals initiative.
