Children, aged 8-12, from the Lord’s Taverners Wicketz projects in Leeds and Manchester came together for a day of competition and life skills workshops, to celebrate all that is good about playing cricket.

The day included a tour of Emirates Old Trafford, and the opportunity to quiz Lancashire fast bowler Saqib Mahmood, before enjoying their own Unity of the Roses clash on the cricket field.
