HARRISON Clark Rickerbys, the law firm based in Deansway, Worcester, has been announced as the official legal partner of Worcestershire County Cricket Club.

Jon Graham, business development director at Worcestershire CCC, said: “It’s great to have Harrison Clark Rickerbys on board as one of our official partners and we chose the firm as they have carried out legal work on behalf of the club for a long time now, particularly over the past two years in which they oversaw all legal aspects of the multi million pound development here at New Road. Strengthening our connection with another major business in the city shows what we are all about and having Harrison Clark Rickerbys commit to the club is another example of the great strides we are making as a business."

Heath Thomas, partner and head of hospitality, leisure and sport at HCR, added: "We are delighted to be appointed as the official legal partner of Worcestershire County Cricket Club. Hospitality, leisure and sport is one of our firm's key sectors and we are very proud of our long-standing association with sports organisations.
