Colin Graves, Chair of YCCC, said: “The board would like to thank Andy for his loyalty, commitment, and expertise during his time at the club. I brought Andy in during 2012 to help grow our revenue streams and that is exactly what has been achieved. Andy remains a friend of the club and is welcome back any time.”

 Andy, said: “It has been an absolute privilege to serve The Yorkshire County Cricket Club. I would like to thank the members and all our commercial partners for their support during my time at the club, I have made life-long friends amongst their number and look forward to watching cricket with them in the future.

I would also particularly like to thank my whole team for their dedication and selfless support during my tenure as we have grown the revenue streams to be the highest they have ever been in the club’s history (2023).

“I am passionate about The Yorkshire County Cricket Club and will miss the people immensely but after 12 years feel it is the right time for me to seek a new adventure.

 “I wish all the YCCC all the very best of success, both on and off the field of play”.
