Cricket Journey: Rachel Lynch has been playing for 11 years, leading both with the ball and as captain. One of her biggest achievements was getting selected for county — a reflection of her consistency and cricketing instinct. Her next goal? To captain her club’s 1st XI and coach the next wave of young talent coming through.

Why Maiden: Rachel grew up in a cricket environment where boys were the default. She wants to flip that script. Becoming a Maiden ambassador allows her to be a visible role model for girls just starting out — and to help normalise a future where girls don’t have to fight for space in the game. With Maiden, she’s not just wearing the kit — she’s representing change.
