Dean Headley: match report

Dean Headley – former England, Middlesex and Kent paceman and the third generation of a famous cricketing family – opened our 2023/24 programme with a superb informal Q&A. 

Dean retired early after a first-class career (1991-2001) cut short by a chronic back injury and is now an ECB match referee. 

He is also heavily involved in coaching young cricketers, as Director of Cricket at Stamford School (2018-23) and now as Head of Cricket at Blundells School, Tiverton (2023-).
