On behalf of the Board of the NCU we would like to thank Paddy for his leadership of the Union during a period of considerable change over the last 3 years. He has overseen tremendous growth in the local game, particularly in women’s and girls’ cricket and the transition of the Union into a fully professional organisation. His tenure has also witnessed terrific success for our representative teams and culminated in Stormont hosting the first ever test match in Belfast. Paddy has been at the heart of all these achievements and we wish him well in his future ventures.
