Sussex D40 batter Alfie Pyle recently made history when he became the first player to go from a Super 1s programme, through the County system and all the way up to the top of the game, making his international debut for England in a victorious tri-series in South Africa last month.
Fresh from making his England debut, Alfie was straight back into coaching a Super 1s session in Crawley, right where it all began for him.
Many would have forgiven him for taking a rest after such a special and busy year, however Alfie was back doing what he loves, inspiring the next generation to pick up a bat and ball.
Hear from Alfie about his whirlwind journey, from Super 1s to Sussex and England.
The Sussex Cricket Foundation's Super 1s clubs provide access for young people with additional needs to regular cricket.
They give participants the chance to compete against peers as well as opportunities to build friendships and develop independent life skills.
With the support of leading disability sports charity, Lord’s Taverners, we run clubs in several Sussex locations throughout the calendar year.
