Ashmole & Co Ammanford are sponsoring local cricket player, Owen Davies, as he heads to South Africa.

Owen lives in Ammanford and plays for Ammanford Cricket Club. He has been selected for the South Wales Cricket Association’s 100th anniversary tour to South Africa.

The landmark tour represents a century of organised league cricket across south Wales – built on dedication, volunteerism, community spirit and a shared love of the game.

Laura Craddock, Partner with Ashmole & Co in Ammanford, said:

“It is a pleasure to be able to sponsor Owen for his upcoming tour of South Africa. It is a fantastic achievement to be picked to represent his team abroad. As a local business we are always happy to support local sports teams and individuals to help them achieve their goals.”

Owen is currently studying his Masters in finance and financial technology at Cardiff University and has previously done work experience with Ashmole & Co in the Ammanford office during his summer holidays.

Owen said:

“I am so grateful to Ashmole & Co for supporting me. Without sponsorship it would have been impossible for the team to even dream of heading to South Africa to play cricket.”

Neil Hobbs, Honorary Chair of the South Wales Cricket Club, said:

“As we mark 100 years of South Wales Cricket, this tour to South Africa is more than just a celebration, it’s an opportunity to honour our heritage, showcase our values on an international stage, and reflect on how far we’ve come as a cricketing community.”

Ashmole & Co Chartered, Certified Accountants are one of the largest accountancy and auditing practices in Wales, operating from 13 offices throughout south and west Wales including Swansea, Carmarthen, Llandeilo and Haverfordwest.
