MAIDEN RISING STAR

Mary Freeman

Mary 

A young bowler from the West Midlands, training with Shelley Fields and a student at Merritts Brook Academy.

Mary is determined to find the right team environment and to play in a women only side as she develops her game. She works hard on her skills, enjoys the challenge of competition, and wants more girls to have clear, welcoming pathways into cricket.

She became a Maiden ambassador to change the experience for girls like her. Mary believes cricket should be promoted for girls with the same energy as boys, and that kit should fit properly so every player feels comfortable, confident, and ready to play.
