We are delighted to announce Pete Free as our next Director of Cricket. Pete will be taking the reins from Grant Morgan, who will be returning to South Africa after two successful seasons.

Pete is no stranger to Norfolk and Schools cricket, and brings many years of experience in coaching young people and developing cricket programmes for the Norfolk Cricket Foundation.

“I am incredibly excited to be joining Gresham’s as Director of Cricket. There is a great tradition at the school of producing some incredibly talented players, and I intend to carry on that tradition, working with the players and dedicated staff. It’s a fantastic opportunity to help shape future players on their individual pathways in such an inspirational environment. In an exciting new chapter of my own and Gresham’s future, I will bring real energy, fun, passion and drive for the next generation of Gresham’s cricketers.” 

We look forward to welcoming Pete in September and we are excited for him to get started right away, building on what has been a fantastic season for us. This year, our U13 boys and girls, U14 boys, and U15 girls all won their respective County Cups.

Cricket is a major sport and passion at Gresham’s, with a significant number of pupils playing throughout the year. They benefit from excellent coaching and outstanding facilities.

We are continually reviewing and improving our cricket programme and look forward to enhancing it further under Pete’s leadership.
