The government has announced £3m of funding, to be matched by the ECB, to build five all-weather cricket domes in areas currently without those facilities: Birmingham, Bolton, Derby, Newcastle and Nottingham.

The domes will be cricket-led but will support a range of sports and activities to keep people active. There are already three ECB-funded domes – in Willehall, Bradford and Darwen, Lancashire, with two more due to open in Luton and Faringdon.
