Metro Bank is the ECB's first-ever Champion of Women's and Girls' Cricket.
They share cricket's commitment to diversity, inclusion and community engagement.
A new Women's and Girls' Fund - made up of equal contributions from the ECB and Metro Bank - is at the heart of the partnership. The Fund will accelerate cricket's progress towards becoming a more inclusive sport, through community team programmes to attract and retain women and girls.
The shared mission is to break down barriers and help create inclusive local cricket communities who will empower more women and girls to reach their full potential in cricket and beyond, transforming the game for generations to come.
