Running alongside the young cricketer of the month award will be our popular player of the week competition.
Fearnley Factory Shop are offering a £30 voucher for the top-performing batsman or bowler every week between now and September.
The competition is open to all county clubs and schools but professional and overseas players are not eligible to win.
Both competitions begin this weekend and, in each case, normal Newsquest Midlands rules apply and the sports editor's decision is final.
