Wiltshire Cricket celebrate Boys Talent Pathway performances from the 2022 season

On Thursday 20th October, in our latest Grassroots Cricket Awards event, Wiltshire Cricket recognised individual performances and Player of the Year awards from across our Boys Talent Pathway age groups.

In attendance as our special guest and to present the awards was Gloucestershire and Wiltshire Cricketer, Will Naish. Will is a current professional cricketer for Gloucestershire, having made his debut in 2022, and also represents Wiltshire in National Counties Cricket. Our thanks go to Will for giving up his time to present the awards.

The evening was split in to two parts with the first part of the evening being for the Under 10s through to Under 13s and the second recognising our Under 14s through to Under 18s.

As well as recognising our players, there were also thanks given to the following groups who are so pivotal in enabling pathway cricket to happen:

• Our Talent Pathway Coaches and Managers - we are so fortunate to have such committed and capable coaches and managers running our pathway teams. 
• Parents and Guardians - our players should be hugely grateful for the support that parents and guardians provide our young cricketers in so many ways
• Host clubs - without the support of clubs in making grounds available, pathway cricket simply wouldn't happen
• Officials - our thanks go to WACO and our team of umpires and scorers who help enhance the match day experience for our players
