Time to nominate your club's heros...

The 2023 Cricket Awards are now open for nominations. In Wales, we will have a series of winners across the categories that you see below, leading to a Welsh Cricket Awards Ceremony in early September 2022.  From this, the Wales winners will be forwarded to the England & Wales Cricket Board as nominees for its own awards. 

Without volunteers to make our game happen, keep it safe, sustained and growing, we have no sport. Please do take the time to nominate the special people at your club.  As a reminder of last year's winners in Wales, please see here.
