Tamsin comes with a lot of experience in all facets of the role, so it is an exciting time for us and we know a difference will be made where there has been a previous gap in our development. Through this role we intend to raise the profile of the good work that is carried out across the network as well as raising much needed funds to support the growth and participation in the game. I am sure Tamsin will be met with support from the cricket and business community.”
