Ford agrees new Kent deal

Posted on 09/14/2006 in Kent

Graham Ford has agreed a new contract to remain as Kent's coach until at least 2008.

Ford doesn't have any silverware to show for his time at Kent but has a crop of young players on the staff such as Joe Denly who made 86 in the current Championship match.

After taking the new deal Ford said: "There is still a lot to do. I am keen to add strength to our first team, build depth in our back-up squad and work to bring through some of our outstanding Academy talent.

"There are a lot of talented cricketers in Kent and I am quite sure that with the help and guidance of our coaching team, we can continue to ensure that Kent competes for success in all competitions.”

Graham Johnson, the chairman of cricket, added: “I am delighted that Graham has agreed to commit to the club for a further two years. During his time with us he has made a significant impact across all aspects of the club’s cricket development and this year has worked particularly well with our new captain, Rob Key. He is genuinely excited by the potential of the club both on and off the field."
