Derbyshire County Cricket Club has teamed-up with the Stumps, Umps & Beer Pumps podcast to promote cricket at all levels across the county and wider region.

The podcast, which is run by volunteers from Winshill Cricket Club – based in Burton-upon-Trent – has continued to grow since its launch during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Derbyshire Chairman, Ian Morgan OBE, and the Club’s Heritage Officer and Photographer, David Griffin, have recorded specials in recent months, as the Stumps, Umps & Beer Pumps podcast aims to give focus to different areas of the game.

Upcoming episodes will include a round table discussion, featuring recreational clubs from across the local leagues, while Derbyshire’s Head of Cricket, Mickey Arthur, will also record an exclusive interview as the first-class season gets underway.
