Cricket Journey: Sophie Weekes has been on the cricket field for eight years, recently earning the Women’s Bowling Award at her club. As a bowler, she delivers with both pace and precision — but her true impact goes beyond stats. Sophie is a quiet force driving change in the women’s game.

Why Maiden: Sophie has spent nearly her whole cricket life in kit that wasn’t made for her — baggy, boxy, and uncomfortable. Maiden was a revelation. She became an ambassador to help make female-specific cricket gear the norm, not the exception — and to inspire women to stick with hardball cricket and play with pride.
