Middlesex Cricket is today delighted to announce that Disability Head Coach, Andy Hill, has signed a new contract to lead the Club’s three Disability squads through until at least the end of the 2025 season.

Previously running the Disability programme at Northamptonshire, Hill took the reins of Middlesex’s Disability set-up early in 2024, and in his first season in charge steered Middlesex’s D40 First Eleven to their first National Championship title, winning the Quest League after going unbeaten the entire 2024 campaign.

The D40 Second Eleven almost doubled up the silverware, going all the way to the final of the Pursuit League competition, before losing out to Cheshire in the final.

The Super 9s squad finished third in their league, rounding off a brilliant season for the Club’s three Disability sides.

Hill has arranged open trials for the three Disability sides in mid to late November, already focussing on improvement of his squads for the 2025 season.

Speaking of Hill committing to leading the Club’s Disability programme in 2025, Angus Fraser, MD of Middlesex in the Community, commented:

“We are enormously proud as a Club to have won the National Disability Championship in 2024. Having come close for the last two seasons it’s good to finally get over the line and be able to lift the trophy.

“Andy has done an exceptional job at the helm since taking over in early 2024 and we’re really looking forward to seeing the D40 First Eleven defend their crown next season, with high hopes that the Second Eleven and Super 9s sides can also challenge for silverware.”

On signing a contract to lead the Disability programme for the 2025 season, Andy Hill, commented:

“I would like to thank Angus Fraser and all those at Middlesex for their warm welcome and support since I joined the Club. The backing that Middlesex Cricket gives to its Disability Programme makes us the envy of all other counties and I am extremely grateful for the support we receive.

“I’m extremely fortunate to have stepped into a Disability set up here that was already very well established prior to my arrival, but to have been able to steer the first eleven to their first national title this season is something that I am enormously proud to have achieved.

“All the credit has to go to the players, who commit so much of their time and passion to improving. The group are hugely motivated, play for each other, and are a real pleasure to work with.

“With the trials we’re holding in November, we’re hopeful that we can discover some more talent, which will take us to the next level and provide competition for places and even greater depth to the three squads.

“Having won the national title, we won’t be resting on our laurels. The hard work starts here, and we’ve got our sights set on plenty of improvement in 2025.”
