In memory of Alex Miller
We provide suicide prevention resources to help prevent suicide in the UK

Story

In December 2012 our friend and team mate Alex Miller tragically died. In his passing we are now without our greatest competitor and most enthusiastic player as well as a great friend to many. We've teamed up with CALM to create a legacy for Alex that promotes the work of the charity to prevent further instances of suicide as well as promoting wellbeing in cricket.

Moving forwards Opening Up Cricket has been set up, a project which promotes mental wellbeing and suicide prevention through cricket. Check out details of their work here www.openingupcricket.com

X10 Alex Miller 6-a-side tournaments (2014- 2023)

X6 Quiz Nights (2017- 2020 & 2022, 2023)
