Yorkshire jet off to Potchefstroom in South Africa for their second successive pre-season in the location next week.

Based at the NWU PUK Sports Village, the squad will train and play in some of the world’s best facilities as their preparations for the new season intensify.

Yorkshire CCC’s First XI Coach Andrew Gale said: “The thing I like about Potchefstroom is that everything is on your doorstep. You stay in the university surroundings. You’ve got the nets at the back, the Test ground there and you’re surrounded by Olympians training. The nutrition is top drawer, there’s an Olympic gym, there’s no travel time so you can use the nets as you wish.”

Embarking on Friday 8th March, the White Rose are set to play a 50-over fixture against Cardiff MCCU and two-day games against Nottinghamshire and Durham.
