"As a club we have embarked upon a new commitment and vision to strengthen our role within the local community, both in cricket and beyond, to create a sustainable organisation for the long-term benefit of the town. “Our unique location, history and exceptional grounds provide us with the opportunity to support and inspire more young people and future cricketers. We are committed to developing pathways for local young people into senior cricket and building a club that is sustainable both on and off the pitch.
