Cricket #2 : Where Players Find Their Place

Disability cricket is still relatively unknown and yet tens of thousands of people now take part across the UK, with the Disability Premier League and the ECB’s support England is leading the way. Talking with Richard Hill MBE who has been a pivotal figure in the advancement of disability cricket, we explore how cricket is becoming a place of belonging, opportunity, and ambition for players with physical, learning, and sensory disabilities.
From grassroots community teams to county pathways and elite competition, disability cricket is growing fast. The biggest barrier isn’t opportunity, it’s awareness. This isn’t adapted cricket, but a structured, competitive system where players are valued and challenged.
We look at the impact this has on players’ lives, the rise of the DPL, and the role cricket is playing in opening doors and changing perceptions, proving that when inclusion is done properly, players don’t just take part… they find their place.
