Most of the School Cricketers selected as Schoolboy Cricketer of the year, have gone on to represent the country.

Current Strength of the Association

Over the years the number of schools have grown from strength to strength and today there are approximately 670 cricket playing schools from the 25 Districts round the country. The break-down of the number of Cricket playing schools in 2019 is as follows –
First XI – 250,
Under 17 – 250,
Under 15 – 300,
Under 13 – 500 played across three Divisions in all age groups
We are confident that with the backing of the three big brothers, namely
The Ministry of Education
The Ministry of Sports,
Sri Lanka Cricket
We could lead a revolution in Cricket in the Country and bring back past glories.
