It’s a huge honour to be appointed to the Lancashire Cricket Foundation Board of Directors: Cross
“It’s a huge honour to be appointed to the Lancashire Cricket Foundation Board of Directors. The Foundation is a fantastic charity, which I’ve seen first-hand over the past 10 years as an ambassador, and I’m excited to see what we can continue to achieve together to make a real difference to people’s lives.
“Having come through the system at Heywood Cricket Club, I’m hugely passionate about the growth and development of grassroots cricket and that we get as many young girls and boys as possible involved in the game. I’m looking forward to working with the wider Lancashire Cricket Foundation team in the coming years, to ensure we inspire the next generation of cricketers across the North West and beyond,” Cross said.
