Andrew Moulding delighted with response to Young Cricketer's Patron Scheme

Andrew Moulding the Somerset Cricket Board Development Officer was busy at his desk in the Centre of Excellence at the County Ground this afternoon putting the finishing touches to a newsletter for the Somerset Young Cricketer's Patron Scheme.

The Young Cricketer's Patron Scheme was launched earlier this season in an effort to provide additional funding for youth cricket across the county and has received good support from all areas of the cricketing spectrum.

The Development Officer told me earlier: "We are absolutely delighted with the response so far to the scheme, and we have just received our first consignment of the specially designed Somerset Young Cricketer's Patrons ties which will dispatched to each patron along with the newsletter in the near future."

During the next few months Mr Moulding is hoping to recruit many more patrons for the scheme, and anyone who would like to sign up to help this very worthwhile cause should send a cheque for a minimum of £15 made out to the Somerset Cricket Board to Mr Moulding at The Centre of Excellence, The County Ground, Taunton, Somerset TA1 1JT.
