Along the way, many teachers have been very complementary about what we do:

“The cricket and rugby coaching sessions have been held both within curriculum time and as after-school clubs. The coaches have provided both fun and competitive games for several hundred children.

“I am sure Ilex has sown seeds of enjoyment and appreciation of sports which will be with many of the children for the rest of their lives.”

John Grubb, Head, Grove Road School:

“Our children have really benefited from the specialised sports coaching provided by Ilex. The coaches are knowledgeable and enthusiastic and provide the kind of expertise that encourages all the children to participate fully.

Janet Langdon, Head, Dundale School:

"Both boys and girls have enjoyed the rugby coaching and cricket has become a favourite sport. The children all look forward to the inter-school tournaments held every year."

Dylan Jones, Head, Cheddington School

“Cheddington Combined School is very grateful to the Ilex Trust. For the last two years two highly skilled Cricket coaches have visited us during the Summer Terms, and working mainly with our Year 5

and Year 6 classes,  have enthused many of our children to take up cricket, not just at school, but as an after-school activity. All our players also thoroughly enjoyed the Kwik Cricket Softball Schools' Competition at the end of the term. I have been hugely impressed with Extra Cover Cricket, and look forward to them returning this Summer Term.”
