2025 Overseas Player/Coach Signing

We are pleased to share that Sebastian Lauderdale-Smith will be joining us at Swindon Cricket Club in 2025.

Seb is a talented batsman originally from New Plymouth, New Zealand but is now based in Dunedin on New Zealand’s south island. He is known as a clean-striking Left-handed Batsman that has been in and around the New Zealand pathways system and has an impressive club and national reps record. He had a successful year in the UK in 2024, showing he can adapt to UK conditions. Away from batting he is adept with the keeping gloves and also took a few wickets bowling last year.

In line with our commitment to developing cricketers, Seb is also a Cricket New Zealand Level 1 (ECB Level 2 equivalent) qualified coach, that will form part of our coaching team in 2025. This will include him aiding senior training sessions, junior training on Friday evenings and being available alongside Wayne for 1-2-1 and small group coaching sessions.

The club were very impressed by Sebs statistics, but in getting to know him we are also impressed with him as a person and feel he will be a great fit at Swindon Cricket Club. We are sure all members will join us in welcoming Seb to Swindon CC.

We are currently exploring accommodation options for Seb. If you have a spare room or property that may be suitable, please reach out to Daniel Harris, any committee member or drop us an email at swindoncricketclub@gmail.com (note accommodation funding is available). Seb will also be available for sponsorship through our player sponsorship scheme. If any business, group or individual is interested please see https://www.swindoncricketclub.co.uk/news/2025-player-sponsorships-now-available-2897203.html for more details.
