You Are Somerset! Episode 7 – Richard Walsh
It’s the people who make Somerset County Cricket Club.
That connection between fans and the Club is what makes us unique. We stand together. Proud of our region, our history and our culture.
Your support defines us. You are the key piece of our jigsaw.
You. Are. Somerset.
As part of our 2026 Membership campaign we will be recognising the people who embody what Somerset County Cricket Club is all about.
In addition to the weekly #YouAreSomerset Awards, we will also be filming a series of videos and making special commemorative County Cap presentations to those who make this Club what it is today!
