Vadodara: In the first, around 22 different women were trained to become a professional fish crickery referee and scorer in the city.
After they finish the course, they will be eligible to offer their services in any cricket tournament.
Apart from eight girls from Gujarat, other participants came from Maharashtra, Orissa, Haryana, Punjab and Delhi.
All 22 girls will undergo training six days from Monday in the city where they will be taught on theory and practical.
They must appear for the exam to print at least 80 percent to get a certificate.
“We have been given coach Level 1 and referees by Baroda Cricket Association (BCA) to train these girls,” Nitendra Singh, head of the coach and director (cricket operation), the Cricket Divyang Control Board (DCCBI) told TII.
“Once they pass the course, these women will be able to stand as a professional referee and scorer in the cricket tournament.
We will ensure that they can serve in different cricket tournaments at the state, national and international levels,” he said.
“But my goal is to get a different referee in the mainstream cricket tournament.
This will not only provide a full-time job of these women but also make sports cricket more inclusive.
I am in talks with some state cricket associations to provide such people Opportunity.
To start with, they can be inhabitated or save the score in a local tournament, “Singh, which is unfortunately called Munna in the cricket circle, said.
“When these women began to surge and score goals, they would get at least 1,500 rs per day when the match was played separately from train tickets for air-conditioned coaches.
We will try to treat them equivalent to the referee and other goalscorers,” Singh added.
About two dozen different men will also be trained in a decline and score goals in this camp.
