Kent Cricket Board Annual County OSCAs

The NatWest OSCAs; ECB's Outstanding Service to Cricket Awards were presented today at The Spitfire Ground, St Lawrence.

The Awards are aimed at recognising and rewarding those volunteers who give so much of their time to the game of cricket. It's fair to say that cricket could not survive without its huge army of unsung heroes. The Kent Cricket Board holds an annual County Awards event whereby cricket clubs can nominate volunteers to be recognised for the work that they do in supporting the game. From the nominations that are received, seven county winners are selected and are then put forward to the ECB National NatWest OSCAs.

We would like to congratulate and thank the following county winners for 2013 OSCAs for the hours they have volunteered and have given up to support the game of cricket in Kent:
