CATCH Trust

Talent is Universal, Opportunity is Not.

Using Cricket as a Vehicle for Social Change.

For many young people, the lack of quality facilities and coaching is a barrier to their potential. The CATCH Trust is tearing down that barrier, creating safe, high-quality ecosystems where young talent can not only develop skills but also build character and a foundation for a better life.
