Newly promoted to the York Senior League Premier Division, Selby Cricket Club have been given a double boost ahead of a season which promises great things.
They have received sponsorship from estate agents York Property Shop, which also has an office in Selby and whose co-partner Richard Mustill is a keen member of the club.
And they have been awarded their club mark accreditation for another three years by the Yorkshire Cricket Board for meeting the high standards of the ECB with their up-to-date facilities, excellent coaching arrangements and having a thriving junior section.
“It’s quite a stringent process involving a lot of documentation,” said club chairman Mick Pearce, who added: “The Premier League is going to be a big undertaking for us. We will have predominantly the same team but it’s been a long time since a Selby district club has competed at such a high level.”
