Crosby Cricket Club fields demo bowler

by isleofman.com 9th May 2012

Crosby Cricket Club is opening this season with a new demon bowler designed to perfect the squad’s batting skills. Renewed sponsorship from Fairbairn Private Bank has helped the club purchase a slick new bowling machine which is capable of delivering anything from 95 mph bouncers to subtle spin bowling.

The machine will be an ideal coaching tool as it can bowl whatever delivery the batsman wants to practice against and is also versatile enough to be used for practicing fielding and wicketkeeping skills.

Cathy Cowin, senior marketing executive at Fairbairn Private Bank, said: “We are delighted to renew our sponsorship of Crosby Cricket Club for another year and we hope the new bowling machine will set the team up for a successful season ahead.”

The club continues to increase its membership and, alongside the junior teams, can now field three senior teams for midweek matches and one senior team in the weekend league.
