Foundation restructures its Cricket Growth and Participation Team
Lancashire Cricket Foundation would like to issue an update following a recent staff restructuring
Lancashire Cricket Foundation has undertaken a restructure of its Cricket Growth and Participation Team, in order to rationalise the organisation and allow more focus on supporting the Regions' clubs while also continuing with the remit of inspiring generations to become involved in cricket.
In the current climate, the Foundation believes it is more important now than ever before to ensure that money is kept within our game and our team will be working diligently with clubs in their areas to do so.
In addition to this, profits generated by the newly launched Lancashire Cricket Regional Development Centres will be regenerated back into helping recreational and local cricket.
