EMC client MKK bags a fifth county deal

Nottinghamshire is the latest county to sign up to wear kit supplied by EMC client MKK Sports for the 2012 cricket season.

Notts will join Surrey, Sussex, Middlesex and Worcestershire in turning out for this year’s County Championship First Division matches in MKK-supplied sportswear. 

As part of the two-year deal, Nottinghamshire will launch three new match shirts in 2012 in addition to a training and leisure range.

Eastbourne-based MKK Sports is run by former Sussex and England fast bowler James Kirtley and sports marketing professional Roger Myall. EMC’s Nik Askaroff is the company’s chairman and Simon Partridge its operations director.

James said: “Having another first class county cricket side on board is very exciting news for MKK. I’m very happy to be working with Nottinghamshire because I have special playing memories of Trent Bridge.

“I’m looking forward to working with the team and helping to enhance their performance in the summer.”
