Since 2008, the Marylebone Cricket Club’s scholarship has helped rising sports stars from rural Sri Lanka to reach their full potential! Many of these students are unable to pursue their sporting talents due to financial constraints and this scholarship plays an integral role in providing them with the opportunity to follow their dreams and some of the scholarship recipients have even gone on to play Premier League Cricket or even represent Sri Lanka as members of the National Cricket Team.
