The Lancashire Cricket Club Website said;

Lancashire Cricket is pleased to announce this year’s Emerging Players Programme (EPP) intake for boys and girls from Lancashire including players from Cheshire and Cumbria.

This group of talented young players have been selected from the County Age Group squads as players that have shown the scope for improvement to reach the next level look to take the next step in their development.

Players from the EPP may progress in future on to the next tier of the talent pathway, which is the Lancashire Cricket Academy.

The programme has provided support to many players over the years including many former and current players including the likes of Haseeb Hameed and Emma Lamb.

The current crop will partake in a winter training programme which is based at Emirates Old Trafford, using specialist coaches with an opportunity to improve their Strength and Conditioning alongside cricket.

The boys programme has been selected from players aged between 13 and 16, while the girls are selected from ages 12 to 14.
