SOUTHOWRAM-BASED Leicestershire County Cricket Club CEO Sean Jarvis is this week celebrating landing a major sponsor for his club after joining them last year from his post as Commercial Director at Huddersfield Town.
Jarvis, a good friend of Brighouse Town AFC chairman James Howard and club sponsor and leisurewear supplier Paul Ramsden, sales executive of Heckmondwike company Tog 24, has landed The Melton Building Society as sponsors of his academy team and also the family stand at Grace Road.
He is thoroughly enjoying his new role chartering the way off the field for The Foxes after several successful years at the Terriers alongside former chairman Dean Hoyle and Ramsden who is also the club’s PA announcer after a busy sporting career with the Old Brodleians and Lightcliffe CC, where he captained both.
Messrs Jarvis and Ramsden have both said in the past 48 hours that England’s outstanding win over India is a great boost for the country right now and also for the game of cricket and especially with it being seen live on terrestrial television following Channel 4 landing the rights ahead of BT and Sky Sports.
