Lucy is the first ever female chair of any recreational cricket league in Wales.   She is one of two women who have been appointed as chairs of ECB accredited premier leagues. Helen Ross has taken the helm of the Surrey Championship, while Lucy leads the North Wales Cricket League.

She talks about her initial contact with the game through her father and her initial involvement with Buckley Cricket Club supporting both her sons in their cricketing development.

As part of the committee at Buckley she was responsible for improving the club adding new facilities and creating new interest around the game in the town.  Following on from this, Lucy got involved in the local Junior cricket league before becoming vice chair of the North Wales Cricket League and progressing to become the chair of the organisation in late 2022.

Lucy tells us a little about the league and outlines some of the issues that the league and the game of cricket face in North Wales.  She also outlines the issues for cricketers, in particular those making their way in the game, who live in the North Wales area.

We talk about the success of girls and women coming into the game and she reinforces the need to have diverse opinions at all levels of the game.

She finished by outlining her hopes for the game of cricket, the North Wales League and herself.
