LGCC & SKECHERS: Partnering For Our Cricketing Community

22 Jul 2024


LEVERSTOCK GREEN CC is absolutely delighted to confirm a new community partnership with Skechers, the globally-renowned footwear brand.

Skechers is proudly partnering with LGCC to help ensure cricket can be enjoyed by all of the club's local community which it serves.

 LGCC's management committee has pledged to ensure the additional funds available are allocated solely towards enhancing the experience of all young people who connect with the club to play cricket, regardless of their background.

 It's an extremely exciting time for the club to have such a prestigious brand wishing to associate itself with Leverstock Green CC - a testament to the hard work that's gone into to making our junior section the heartbeat of 'the club at the heart of its community'.

 LGCC chair Mike Parkes said of the partnership: "We are extremely grateful to Skechers - and in particular Richard Parker, their UK & Ireland MD - for their amazing commitment in supporting everything we try to do for the young people in the club's care.

 "It places a welcome responsibility on the club's management team to keep delivering as we've been doing. Providing the best possible facilities and equipment for young cricket players means we're future-proofing the wellbeing of cricket at LGCC into the future."

 Added Richard Parker, Skechers UK & Ireland MD: "Skechers is proud to be supporting a fantastic local club whose continued support in making sport accessible is at the heart of all it does.

"I’ve seen first-hand the contribution given by LGCC’s group of volunteer coaches to encourage and develop youngsters in cricket. Our support will help to ensure this can continue to be built upon both now and into the future."

So please join the club's management committee in warmly welcoming Skechers as part of the LGCC family!
