Hi, my name is Chloe and I have been playing cricket for 7 years, since I was 9 years old! Cricket has become my passion and I play for Notts and Arnold cricket club, Nottinghamshire County (U17 and ladies) and indoor at ladies national level and in the Nottingham indoor senior mens league.

I was awarded the counties bowling award, for most wickets last season at Trent Bridge and I am proud to be part of the ‘emerging player programme’ for Nottinghamshire women’s team. I am left handed spin bowler and wicket keeper (indoor).

I have met some amazing people and made many friends along my cricket 'journey' at various indoor centres and outdoor cricket clubs throughout England.

I am in the final trials for Action Sports England U17 girls indoor cricket. This will involve playing in a tournament in New Zealand starting 24th September 2018 for two weeks. The tournament is a junior world series and will include teams from a variety of countries including Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.

I am hoping to raise money to help me fund this amazing opportunity and would be grateful for any donations.

Thank you so much for reading my story
