Smallman & Son rejoin 1879 Club

Leicestershire County Cricket Club are pleased that Smallman & Son have rejoined the club as a sponsor ahead of the new season.

Smallman & Son are sponsoring Leicestershire CCC seam bowler Richard Jones as well as continuing as members of our 1879 Club.

Fast bowler Jones has an impressive first-class record having claimed 157 wickets at an average of 32.15. He rejoined the Foxes having enjoyed two previously successful loan spells, including a five-wicket haul on his T20 debut.

Syston-based commercial building and refurbishment contractors Smallman & Son promise to deliver outstanding value and quality throughout all of their areas of expertise.

These include refurbishments, commercial joinery, shop fitting, public sector, residential and DDA projects. The Smallman & Son website is available here: http://www.smallmanandson.co.uk/

Smallman & Son will have branding around the ground and on the club website and have exclusive networking opportunities as part of their deal.

The company will also receive season tickets to the Fischer County Ground and the unique opportunity to attend the day-night test match between England and West Indies at Edgbaston.

Leicestershire CCC Commercial Director Jim Overend said: “Smallman & Son have become a great partner for us and are an absolute pleasure to work alongside.

“We are delighted that they have rejoined our 1879 Club and also as a player sponsor for Richard. We appreciate the support and look forward to welcoming Smallman & Son to the Fischer County Ground in 2017.

Alexandra Kowalczuk, Head of Business Development for Smallman & Son said: “We are delighted, once more, to join the 1879 Club, in addition to sponsoring  Bowler Richard Jones for the next Season. We found last year that being a sponsor was a great way to network with other businessmen and women in a more relaxed environment.

“We are really looking forward to an exciting season, and also to  the  Women’s Cricket World Cup which is also being hosted at the Fischer County Ground this year.”

* The club has a few players still available to sponsor for the 2017 season and membership of the 1879 Club is still available. For all player sponsorship and 1879 Club opportunities please call Corporate Sales Manager Tracey Branson on 0116 245 2464 or email traceybranson@leicestershireccc.co.uk
