Graham Howe Joins GCC

Graham Howe Joins GCC

Eddie Gibbs2 Feb 2013 - 16:09

As preparations continue for our debut season in the CSL we are delighted to announce that former Spanish ODI Captain Graham Howe has joined the club.

Graham relocated with his family to Scotland this year having lived and worked in the Costa Blanca region of Spain for several years.

Whilst in Spain he was one of the leading batsmen in the all conquering Sporting Alfas CC side which dominated Spanish domestic cricket.

His club performances gained the attention of the Spanish International selectors and he went on to both skipper and then manage Cricket Espana (ICC Affiliate Member).

Upon confirming Graham had joined GCC for the 2013 season, Club Chairman Eddie Gibbs stated; "Many of the GCC lads already know Graham very well from our annual end of season tour to Spain. On one occasion we played against a team from Madrid and fielded a combined team against them made up of players from SACC and GCC. I opened the batting with Graham that day and we enjoyed a quick-fire partnership of about 80; as I recall Graham got about 60 of them!"

"Upon hearing Graham had relocated with his family to Scotland we were obviously keen to get him involved with GCC and now that he's joined the club we couldn't be more pleased."

Graham Howe commented; "I've always found Glenrothes CC to be an incredibly forward thinking and pro-active club. I can't wait to get started at indoor training next week and I'm really looking forward to becoming part of the set up."
