The Derbyshire Cricket Board - About us

The Derbyshire Cricket Board is responsible for all aspects of recreational cricket throughout Derbyshire.  It has a number of strategic partners in this effort.  These comprise of:

bulletThe England and Wales Cricket Board
bulletDerbyshire Sport
bulletThe local Schools Sports Partnerships
bulletThe local Councils and any other organisation whose interest lies in the Development of cricket as a 'sport for all'.

The organisation has what is effectively a corporate structure to assist in this process.

The Executive Operations Group meet with the England and Wales Cricket Board to determine and implement the strategies set by the ECB in the best interest of Derbyshire Cricket as a whole.  To enable its work there is currently a team of 6 people covering:

bulletPerformance

This team is based at the County Ground in Derby and is heavily involved in all aspects of the day to day running of the DCB.

Sitting directly beneath the Executive is a large Management Board to monitor, guide and offer advice and assistance to the Executive on all matters involving cricket.  This panel is drawn from all aspects of cricket in Derbyshire and includes representatives from (in no particular order):

bulletGroundsmen

In addition all 7 Districts of Derbyshire are represented together with our strategic partners.

The DCB has two main committees, Performance and Club Development that meet regularly to discuss matters within their remit.
