About the FDSO
The Federation of Disability Sports Organisations (FDSO) was formed in 1993 to create and provide sport and recreational opportunities for people with disabilities in the Yorkshire and Humberside regions.
The FDSO is a Benevolent Organisation (not for profit) and is run by a volunteer Executive Committee made up of members from the four regional Disability Sports Organisations.
They are the Blind Sport Advisory Group, Disport (representing people with a learning disability), Yorkshire Deaf Sports Council and Disability Sport Events (who represent people with Physical Disabilities).
Can you help?
In order to carry out the many sporting events and coaching sessions, the FDSO is reliant on a great many volunteers who provide specialist coaching, support, first aid and administrative functions.
BLIND CRICKET ENGLAND AND WALES
NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT EVENT
SAT.11th / SUN.12th SEPTEMBER 2010
This event, the biggest of it's kind, will bring together new and developing visually impaired cricketers from all over the country for a festival of blind cricket.
The weekend is open to players of all ages and abilities, from those trying the game for the first time to players looking to break into their county first teams.
There will be qualified V.I. cricket coaches on hand to teach both domestic and international blind cricket, as well as plenty of opportunity to play short matches against other development teams.
It will take place at York Universitys Heslington campus, situated in a quiet location, ideal for the playing of V.I. cricket, and just a 10 minute taxi ride from York railway station, which takes trains from all over the country.
Accommodation will be provided on the Saturday night on a B& b basis and all cricket pitches , coaches, umpires etc. will be paid for.
The only cost to participants will be their travel costs to the venue.
This is a unique opportunity for new and developing V.I. cricket players to get together in one place to swap ideas and get professional coaching and advice about our great game.
