Birmingham Mail
|May 24, 2025
WARWICKSHIRE’S former cricket operations manager Keith Cook has been made an Honorary Life Vice President by the England & Wales Cricket Board (ECB).
‘Cookie’ retired on day one of the new County Championship season to call time on a Bears career stretching back an incredible 51 years.
He was recently made an honorary life member by Warwickshire in recognition of his outstanding service for more than half a century.
And he's now one the ECB's first Honorary Life Vice Presidents as part of a new initiative designed to celebrate exceptional contributions to cricket.
Cook is one of six recipients - three from the professional game and three from recreational cricket - who were presented with commemorative silver bats to mark the honour at the ECB's AGM in Southampton.
