Cricket has gained popularity in the Netherlands through the Dutch national team's success and the Koninklijke Nederlandse Cricket Bond (KNCB) efforts. Supported by the government’s Talent Development Program, young athletes have been introduced to cricket in schools and sports clubs, increasing demand for youth equipment. Likewise, cricket’s rising popularity in Italy is partly due to a growing immigrant population with a passion for the sport. With government backing, the Italian Cricket Federation (FCI) has launched the Cricket in Schools program to integrate cricket into the Italian sports landscape. This program, funded by the National Sports Promotion Fund, supplies schools with cricket kits and organizes inter-school tournaments to cultivate interest among young Italians. Thus, combining government support, cultural integration, and community engagement has positioned Europe as a fertile ground for expanding cricket equipment market.
