Edwards takes on Hampshire role
CRICKET: Former England captain Charlotte Edwards has been appointed as the director of women’s cricket at Hampshire.
Edwards will continue to captain Hampshire Women for a second season this year and will also be responsible for the management of the first team, player pathway and Southern Vipers sides at the Ageas Bowl.
The 38-year-old, who replaces former Hampshire wicketkeeper Bob Parks in the role, led the Vipers to the inaugural Kia Super League title in 2016.
