Josh Cobb - Leicestershire

Born - Leicester, August 17, 1990 Joined - Leicestershire 2007 Role - Right Hand Batsman, Leg Break Bowler Family Links - Dad Russell played for County (1980-89) Teams Represented - Leicestershire Honours - England under-19s tour to South Africa Highlight of Career - 148* at Lord's and becoming Leicestershire's youngest-ever centurion Players Admired - Shane Warne, Darren Stevens, Paul Nixon Relaxations - Reading, socialising with friends, listening to music

 Cobb became the County’s youngest centurion in 2008, making a majestic unbeaten 148 against Middlesex at Lord’s.
The teenager shared a 270-run stand with HD Ackerman at the home of cricket - the highest for any wicket against Middlesex in history - which showed instant progression from promising knocks against both Warwickshire and Gloucestershire.
Cobb continued that good form by topping the club’s Championship averages, adding a further two half-centuries along the way in a most promising season after finishing his studies.
Son of former Leicestershire batsman Russell, Cobb is a top-order batsman who can also bowl useful leg breaks, proven by the fact he took four wickets in just 19 Championship overs last season.
Made his first-class debut for Leicestershire towards the end of the 2007 season shortly after his 17th birthday.
Cobb also appeared at Lord’s for club side Kibworth in the Cockspur Cup final of 2007 and is a former student of Oakham School, like former County all-rounder Stuart Broad and current batsman Matthew Boyce.
Cobb made his second-XI debut in 2006, and also represented the club’s academy against Victoria Emerging Players in 2007, scoring an unbeaten 102. After a successful 2008 campaign with County, Cobb gained his first international recognition by being selected to tour South Africa with England under 19s, where he came second in the one-day averages at an excellent 42.00.
Signed a new three-year deal with County to see him through to the end of the 2011 season.

About Febluary
Expect to see a lot more blue on the oval this season as cricketers pitch in to help spread the mental health message far and wide.
The Febluary campaign aims to raise awareness of depression, anxiety and related mental health disorders for beyondblue: the national depression initiative.
It is an initiative of the Southern District Cricket Club and is supported by the South Australian Cricket Association (SACA).
An official launch of Febluary will be held at the Adelaide Oval on Sunday February 1 with club representatives.
Thirteen of SACA’s Grade Cricket Clubs are taking part in Febluary by wearing blue at matches on February 7 and February 14. Around 1400 Grade cricketers and umpires will celebrate SACA’s Febluary Round.

What is beyondblue: the national depression initiative?
beyondblue is a national, independent, not-for-profit organisation working to address issues associated with depression, anxiety and related substance-use disorders in Australia.
beyondblue is a bipartisan initiative of the Australian, State and Territory Governments with the key goals of raising community awareness about depression and anxiety and reducing stigma associated with the illness.
beyondblue works in partnership with health services, schools, workplaces, universities, media and community organisations, as well as people living with depression, to bring together their expertise.

Health messages
 One in five people will experience depression at some time in their lives.
 Depression is more than just a low mood – it can be a serious illness that requires attention; seeking help early is a good first step.
 With the right treatment, most people recover from depression.
 Men are often reluctant to seek help for themselves, but they go to great lengths to help a mate.
 Be aware of how your mates are travelling. If you notice any changes in the behaviour of a mate, be there to offer support. If your mate doesn't seem to be coping, help them to get an appointment to see a GP or other health professional.
 For more information about depression, anxiety and related drug and alcohol problems visit www.beyondblue.org.au or call the beyondblue info line on
1300 22 4636 (local call from a landline).

 Peter Sleep appointed as TTGDCC Coach

“Peter Sleep was born in Mt Gambier and moved to Adelaide to play under age and club cricket for Kensington who identified his talent and competitive nature through country carnivals.  He played grade cricket for Kensington from age 17 and quickly was identified through SACA talent squads as having the technique / ability / mental toughness to play State cricket.  He made his senior state debut whilst still playing at Kensington.  He played a major role in their premiership in the early 80’s, making an outstanding 100 in a semi final on Adelaide No. 2, chasing a large Salisbury total, against a quality attack. 

The following year saw him playing for the Salisbury club, adding further depth to a side that had players such as Bishop, Bradbrook, Causby, Jolly, Prior, Zadow and later Lehmann, Fielke, Opperman, Heindrik, no wonder they dominated grade cricket for 16-17 years, winning 9 grade premierships.

His contribution to cricket in South Australia was outstanding as a player and competitor. Playing for Kensington, Adelaide and Salisbury in Grade cricket he made 6220 runs at 40.92 and took 409 wickets at an average of 21.23.    His First Class statistics (1976 -1994) make outstanding reading, playing 175 games, taking 363 wickets with his leg spin and making 8201 runs.  He made his test debut in1979 and played 14games, taking 31 wickets and making 483 runs at an average of 24.14 .  His approach to cricket was exactly the same, whether playing a grade game at Salisbury Oval or a test match on the MCG.  He was an intense competitor, who took great pride in his performances.  

He was probably the best all round grade cricketer I have had the pleasure to see, impacting on a game with his batting, bowling or outstanding fielding.

He has coached at Salisbury and with Lancashire in the English country scene as well as specialist coaching with many of the English under age teams.  He brings a wealth of knowledge, experience and a competitive desire to be successful to TTG. “
