The Tackling Climate Change Fund (TCCF) aims to support ECB affiliated Cricket Clubs to mitigate the impact of Climate Change with particular regards to flooding, drought, energy saving and water management.

TCCF 2026 is intended to run as a pilot to inform future investment. The design of the scheme will be reviewed for 2027

Clubs can apply for funding towards the purchase of relevant products or materials (new only), and associated professional labour costs, under the following project themes:
• Flood Resilience – building protection / targeted drainage* / ditch or culvert clearance
