Leicestershire Launch Exclusive Sixes Social Cricket Leicester Partnership

Leicestershire CCC is excited to announce the launch of a new partnership with Sixes Social Cricket Leicester.

The collaboration will create a host of exclusive opportunities for Foxes fans and Sixes customers alike, while Leicestershire’s stars will make regular appearances at Sixes Leicester throughout the 2024 season.

The franchise’s Halford Street-based home, located in Leicester’s Cultural Quarter, is also set to receive the ‘Leicestershire look’, with the venue to be adorned with Foxes memorabilia and a dedicated LCCC-themed batting cage.

As part of the partnership, Foxes fans can enjoy a 20% discount on batting net sessions at Sixes Leicester, while players also have the chance to win a collection of signed Leicestershire CCC keepsakes and luxury Sixes experiences by topping Sixes’ weekly leaderboards.

Sixes Leicester, which launched in December 2022 with Leicestershire CCC players in attendance - combines a traditional cricket nets session with the essentials of a perfect hospitality experience.

Through Sixes’ precision virtual technology, players can test themselves against some of the game’s all-time greatest bowlers, before relaxing with a drink of choice and a rich menu of fresh-from-the-oven plates.

The engrossing batting experience allows players of any ability to face the likes of Jofra Archer, Shane Warne and Jimmy Anderson on a difficulty suited to their cricketing capability “ cheered on by friends, family and colleagues who can watch net-side in Sixes’ vibrant social setting.

Josh Carpenter, Ticketing and Marketing Manager at Leicestershire CCC, said: “We have drawn up some incredibly exciting plans in collaboration with Sixes Leicester for the season ahead.

“This partnership will enhance the matchday experience at Uptonsteel County Ground and the social experience at Sixes, and we encourage our supporters to keep an eye out for the many exclusive opportunities we are set to announce shortly.”

Katrina Daley, Operations Manager at Sixes Social Cricket Leicester, said: “We are thrilled to announce that we have partnered with Leicestershire County Cricket Club.
