Meanwhile, Aylesbury Cricket Club, along with Bucks County Cricket Board and Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust hosted a tournament last week and hope it will lead to the development of a new league next year.
The aim of the tournament was to make a commitment to develop opportunities for players who have experienced mental health difficulties and aims to assist them to develop their interest in cricket and facilitate moves into local club games.
A spokesman said: “It is about a commitment to inclusivity and developing a community club accessible to all.”
