I read a tweet about TITAN CRICKET (http://www.titancricket.co.uk/) wanting help to create and launch a new line of equipment and clothing specifically for women, so I contacted owner Naveed Khan to see what it was all about and his reply is below. If you are interested in getting involved then please contact him (& tell him it was through WCB).
"TITAN
is a new brand of cricket equipment and clothing that launched in January this
year. We currently supply a range of Men's products and our original intention
was to expand our range to include Colts & Juniors. However, since our
launch we have noticed a serious lack of products and clothing for Women
cricketers and we were shocked to learn that as little as 3-4 years ago the
England Women's team were still wearing "boys" clothing. In light of
the current situation many female cricketers find themselves in, namely having
to buy boys/youths clothing and forced to buy mostly pink equipment, we are
committed to launching a complete range of equipment and clothing that is
focused purely for women. It may not be as lucrative as the colt/juniors
market, which is probably why the more established brands have neglected it
thus far, but we believe that embracing this challenge fits into our company
ethos which is to ensure buying cricket equipment does not exclude people from
playing/joining the sport.
We
have spoken to a couple of cricketers that are local to us and have taken on
board their feedback but it would be great to get as much input as possible. We
welcome ideas/thoughts from cricketers at all levels and are completely open to
suggestions for styling, design, colours, fit, weight etc. We are not looking
to trade off anybody's name or snag a high profile player's endorsement, we are
merely committed to providing the best quality products possible.
If
you know of anybody who may be interested in taking part in this process then
please do not hesitate to pass on our details.
I
can be reached by email (sales@titancricket.co.uk) or by telephone on 07530 004 124.
Kind
regards,
Naveed

Good luck to Titan!!
