After a successful collaboration in 2024, Derbyshire will provide 250 pairs of tickets, across four of this summer’s Vitality Blast fixtures and England Women’s Metro Bank One-Day International against West Indies, which will be distributed to NHS Workers and families across Derbyshire, reinforcing the message that cricket is a game for everyone.

The 2025 summer is packed full of cricket, with Derbyshire’s Men’s team targeting success across three formats, including the exciting Vitality Blast T20 competition, and Derbyshire Falcons Women take a historic step into the new domestic structure, in which they will compete in Tier Two, with several games to be played at The County Ground and across the county.
