A superb informal Q&A with England paceman Dean Headley opened our 2023/24 programme.  Dean is the third generation of the famous cricketing family. He 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-).
