Mike Siddall, Chief Executive of Leicestershire County Cricket Club

"Leicestershire CCC is delighted to have De Montfort University as our cultural partners. By joining forces with us, DMU has reached out to the whole community of Leicester in these tough economic times.

"Their help has allowed a number of students to receive cricket coaching, as well as giving them the opportunity to attend our matches. DMU has also provided the Club with much-valued support."
