The latest round of Sport England Lottery Fund Awards to East Midlands projects, announced today, provide a welcome funding boost to Milton Cricket Club, near Tuxford in North Nottinghamshire. The Club, founded in 1949, has been awarded £68,311 towards a total project cost of £127,311 to upgrade and extend their pavilion facilities, allowing them to dispense with their ageing Portacabin changing rooms. Joe Goodman, Trustee of the Club, who also led the Lottery bid said "Milton Cricket Club is extremely pleased to receive this award from Sport England. It will allow the club to move forward with plans to promote junior cricket through all local schools, and operate a 3rd team, hopefully in the Bassetlaw League. With more girls now playing at the Kwik Cricket level, our plans for the future look very good! Our sincere thanks to Sport England for all their help and support.” Sport England’s Regional Director in the East Midlands, Tim Garfield, commented “We are delighted to be able to confirm Sport England's Award to Milton Cricket Club. We originally offered them our support some time ago, in the relatively early stages of their development, and we have been working hard with them since then to develop their project through to today’s confirmation. We are confident that the investment of Sport England Lottery funding will help the Club to develop further, generating many ‘home grown’ cricketers through their already thriving junior development programme, for many years to come." concluded Mr Garfield. This latest Sport England Lottery Fund Award brings its overall investment in Nottinghamshire to more than £44.4 million, and investment in club cricket in the county to £850,000+ since March 1995. The Artificial Wicket is Sponsored by a £4,000 grant from the Foundation for Sport & Art and £1,000 from Lords Taverners.
