A cricket club has a new digital scoreboard thanks to a fund backed by former England player Darren Gough.
Bicester and North Oxford Cricket Club received funding from the £75,000 Gigaclear Rural Sports Club Fund, aimed at supporting rural sports clubs across 26 counties.
Club chairman Gary Sansome said: "We’re really grateful to Gigaclear’s Rural Sports Club Fund for helping towards our new digital scoreboard.
"It’s a great asset for the club and has enabled us to deliver an enhanced and professional experience to all our members who play at the ground.
"With this modern electronic scoreboard, we now have an integrated scoring and live YouTube streaming platform."
Fund ambassador Mr Gough added: "Since launching the fund, it has gone from strength to strength, providing valuable support where it is needed most.
"It’s great to see so much kit and equipment being sent out to rural sports clubs such as Bicester and North Oxford Cricket Club and I wish them every success in the coming season.
"I believe the fund is helping make a difference to players now and to the rural sports teams of the future."
The club was established in 1996 and plays its home fixtures at its ground in Akerman Street, Chesterton.
Its first XI play in the ECB Home Counties Premier League, and the club is keen to attract players of all ages and abilities.
