Dr Ravi Badge, Upper Limb Consultant at Warrington and Halton NHS Foundation Trust is the National Sports Co-Ordinator for BIDA. He said:
“It is a great pleasure and honour to have been selected to this post and I recognise I have big boots to fill following 17 years, under Dr Hammady.
I have been involved with BIDA for that same time period, and played cricket for Wigan BIDA. I have witnessed first-hand the excitement and competitive spirit generated by our annual cricket tournament. Building on this success, we have broadened our offer to reach out and engage with more sports."
We are examining subtle rule changes to allow greater participation in our cricket tournament from across the regions.
A participating team from one of the divisions will be allowed to field three non-BIDA members.
We will be hosting an online meeting to ensure greater diversity and inclusion, through the divisions.
Following our success last year, we will be organising another golf tournament.
We will continue to work with the BIDA family, to ensure greater diversity and inclusivity.
