DARWEN Cricket Club has gained a new sponsorship deal with Bowker BMW and Mini.
The Blackburn-based firm is set to provide vital funds to help the club raise the profile of the sport within the local community.
The club, which plays at Birch Hall, has recently enjoyed a good run of form in both league and cup competitions.
The first XI finished third in the Northern Cricket League Division One and picked up their first piece of silverware after winning the county's Twenty20 trophy against Lancaster in a final held at Birch Hall.
The side have also made the finals of both the Lancashire Cup and the Thwaites League Cup.
Paul Bowker, chief executive of Bowker's Motor Division, said: "We are delighted to become a sponsor of a club which is doing so well."
