About Us.

CABK (Cricket Association for the Blind in Kerala) stands as a distinguished thread in the tapestry of sporting organizations, woven with dedication and commitment. Registered under the Indian Societies Act on 28 December 2012, we proudly affiliate with Cricket Association for the Blind in India (CABI) and the World Blind Cricket Council, upholding a commitment to excellence. Beyond cricket, CABK is a beacon of hope and empowerment, believing that blind cricket offers holistic development for visually impaired individuals. Our mission is to uplift individuals, celebrating their resilience through cricket. Join us in championing inclusivity, dignity, and relentless pursuit of excellence on this extraordinary journey. The association stands as a catalyst for profound transformation in the lives of its members, an institution whose impact extends far beyond the cricket field. Approximately 500 individuals have been touched by its guiding influence, experiencing a metamorphosis in their social standing and career trajectories. Through their association with this venerable institution, many have ascended to a higher social echelon, finding their identity as players celebrated above their visual impairments. Their achievements have transcended the boundaries of mere sport; they have earned respect and admiration for their exceptional abilities. In times of adversity, such as the trials brought by the COVID-19 pandemic and devastating floods, the association’s unwavering support provided not just financial stability, but a lifeline of hope. It ensured that its members weathered these storms with dignity and resilience.

Moreover, the association has nurtured educators, guiding some members toward the noble profession of teaching. These individuals, armed with the knowledge and values imparted by the association, now inspire others with their wisdom and dedication. In every endeavor they undertake, these transformed individuals carry with them the indelible mark of recognition, a testament to the nurturing and training they received at the association’s cricket academy. The association has not merely honed cricketing skills but has instilled a spirit of unwavering determination, excellence, and resilience that reverberates throughout various walks of life, encompassing not only cricket but also leadership in sports, management of fitness facilities, and the noble art of teaching. The association’s profound social impact stands as a beacon of inspiration and hope for all. At present, the Association boasts 160 registered players under the esteemed leadership of Rajanish Henry, supported by a committed board of 10 members. Among these, 8 are Executive members, with an additional 3 serving in other vital roles.
