Worthingtons and White Park Capital will jointly sponsor the team.

Huw Worthington, senior partner at Worthingtons Solicitors, said: “Worthingtons have a long tradition of supporting community sport, whether it be football - Ards FC, showjumping - Gransha Riding Club, or Newtownards girl Lucy Oldfield who has been selected to compete in the World Karate Federation Championships in Italy.

“With its strong community presence and commitment to youth development, we are delighted to add Holywood Cricket Club to our sporting roster; hopefully they will have a fantastic season with plenty of centuries and no ducks.”
