LCCC welcomes further player sponsors

Leicestershire CCC is delighted to announce three further player sponsors ahead of the 2015 season.

Holiday Lounge, the independent travel agent who have branches in Lutterworth, Hinckley and Burbage, have been long-term sponsors of the club.

Holiday Lounge is sponsoring Leicestershire slow left arm spinner James Sykes this summer. The promising bowler broke into the Leicestershire First XI in all forms of the game last season.

We are pleased to welcome The Smith Partnership to the club as sponsors of pace bowler Ollie Freckingham.

The Smith Partnership is one of the largest legal firms in the East Midlands and has a branch in Leicester as well as Derby, Burton, Stoke and Swadlincote.

Freckingham had an outstanding first season for Leicestershire in 2013 before being unlucky with injuries last term.

We are also pleased to welcome Homecare For You Ltd, who are sponsoring young batsman Aadil Ali. Homecare For You has been providing community homecare services for children and the elderly for the past 13 years. They are contracted with several local councils in the Northwest as preferred providers and governed by Care Quality Commission.

Commercial Director Jim Overend said: “It is great to have Holiday Lounge rejoin as a player sponsor and we are also really pleased to welcome The Smith Partnership and Homecare For You to the club.

“We have a new era with Wasim Khan MBE as Chief Executive, Andrew McDonald arriving as Head Coach and experienced internationals Mark Cosgrove, Clint McKay and Grant Elliott joining us.

“It’s an exciting time to be involved with the club so please get in touch if you’d like to sponsor a player – or join our 1879 Club or Captain’s Club.”
