Supporting your community sport

We’ve teamed up with The Cricketer to sponsor the Voneus Village Cup, the world’s biggest amateur cricket competition.

This historic tournament, which has been a staple of village cricket since 1972, gives amateur clubs from across the country the chance to compete for a place in the final at the iconic Lord’s Cricket Ground.

The partnership reflects our ongoing commitment to championing rural communities by celebrating local talent, fostering community spirit, and shining a national spotlight on the vital role village cricket plays in the heart of the UK’s countryside.
