\n\tFundraising<\/strong>: £635 so far www.JustGiving.com\/Martin-Fears<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tUnique Fundraiser<\/strong>: a complete stranger on www.cricketweb.net donated $150 [£100.29] – now that's generous
\n\tReason for Getting Involved<\/strong>: Cricket has been a major part of my life, one way or another. This is an opportunity to spread the game of cricket to new parts of the world.
\n\tDay Job(s)<\/strong>. I have 2 jobs, from Sep-May I work in IT as a contract project manager [explains my obsession for planning and being organised]. During the summer months I switch to cricket coaching – [Shropshire] county boys u13, club [Wellington CC] u14\/15\/16 and Chance-2-Shine + summer camps.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tUnusual Fact<\/strong>: Rejected Sussex u14 cricket colt so switched to motorbike racing [10 years] and raced against <\/span>Barry Sheene and Damon Hill.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tCricket Experience: <\/strong>Have played cricket for 45 years for a couple of clubs in Sussex and Shropshire at <\/span>various standards – 1sts to 4ths. Toured Cape Town with the Shropshire over 50's in 2007 [as an <\/span>under age pup], still playing for Wellington 4ths helping to bring the youngsters into adult cricket. <\/span>I gained my club coach [level 2.5] award in 2011 and hope next year to go on to do level 3. Video <\/span>analysis and fast-bowling is my specialist areas.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tReason you got involved with the charity<\/strong>:
\n\tEmily: I want to share a skill whilst spreading a message that will make a difference to both children and adults. I want to be more globally responsible. I realise that my way of life has an impact across all continents. This is may way of "paying" something back.

\n\tClive: Financial consultant
\n\tInteresting\/Unusual\/Gross(!) fact about yourself:<\/strong>
\n\tEmily: I am proud to be the only Belgian in the world who is cricket crazy (because I am the only Belgian who knows there is a difference between cricket and croquet) and the only Belgian who hates Belgian chocolates (cadburys all the way!)
\n\tClive: I once was the top ice-cream salesman in Oklahoma (a long time ago but still!)
\n\tCricketing Experience:<\/strong>
\n\tEmily: I play (badly) for a small village club, coach cricket to primary school children and have been a general cricket fan since the 2005 Ashes.
\n\tClive: both my sons and my wife are cricket crazy, have been supporting my sons in all their cricketing endeavours since they were 4-5 years old. They are now 15 and 19. I have just been brainwashed.\n<\/p>\n
