Cricket Assist - Mary Brooksbank Match

March 2007, 14 Degrees organised a one-day match at Bradman Oval, Bowral, under its Cricket Carnival program, to benefit Mary Brooksbank School.

Mary Brooksbank School was established in 1987 to provide individual educational programs for students with moderate to severe intellectual disabilities. A large proportion of the students also have a physical/sensory impairment and many students have challenging behaviours.

14 Degrees was proud to be able to support, for the third year running, a mechanism to raise funds for the works carried out by this School.

14 Degrees coordinated the event and provided an opposition team to play against the Mary Brooksbank XI.  The School raised funds by seeking sponsorship to play in the positions in its team.
