Everyone at Himley is delighted with his appointment and he will be available for junior coaching and private 1-1 coaching assisting in the further development of Himley's junior section which now boasts 21 boys and girls teams including 28 players playing representative cricket this season. The club is not resting on its laurels and is actively launching a recruitment drive for under 10 players for the forthcoming season.
To aid this development the club will be embarking on some major projects on Saturday 27th March 2010 as part of the ECB Natwest cricket force day.
