Sponsorship
The increased popularity of cricket in Lancashire, due to various programmes
being delivered by our staff and through Focus Clubs, has enabled the LCB to

in workforce development. This sponsorship has come to an end and we thank them
for their valued support. As a result, we are seeking a new sponsor.
