Testimonial - Steffan Jones:
Director of Sport - Wellington School Fast Bowling & Throwing Specialist Rajasthan Royals IPL 20-21 Wellington school has been taking part in the Mersey Cup since the beginning. It's the highlight of our school fixture calendar and 4 days that determine the success of our summer programme. We pride ourselves on the professional approach to preparation and coaching methodology at Wellington school and we feel this tournament provides our players with the appropriate challenge to aid them in their cricketing development. We will continue to attend the tournament and Brad does a brilliant job in organising the event. Over the past 4 years the tournament has also provided the school programme with a great shop window and a consistent talent identification opportunity for us. 6 Mersey Cup players have earned a well earned and respected cricket scholarship at Wellington school based on their performance in the tournament.
