Switalskis signs two-year deal to sponsor cricket club’s ground

Law firm Switalskis has become the new naming rights sponsor of Grimsby Town Cricket Club’s ground at Augusta Street, which is now named the Switalskis Cricket Ground for the next two years.

The sponsorship, which runs from this month, follows Switalskis’ opening of its full-service Grimsby office earlier this year and is the firm’s latest step in embedding itself further in the town.

Switalskis marked the start of the two-year partnership by attending the final of the club’s 90th Knockout Tournament on Monday 20 July. Switalskis’ joint head of residential conveyancing Ed Atkin presented the trophies to the winning team, Cleethorpes Cricket & Squash Club, following their win over Scunthorpe Town CC.

Ed Atkin says: “Opening our Grimsby office was never about a new location, it was about becoming part of the community and building relationships across the region and making our full range of legal services accessible to local people. Presenting the trophies at Monday’s final was a brilliant way to start this partnership, and it’s clear how much this club means to the players, families and volunteers who make it what it is. As someone who was born and raised in Grimsby, it means a lot personally to support a club with such deep roots in the town.

“We’re looking forward to working alongside the club over the next two years and playing a small part in supporting everything it does for local people.”

Emma Wigham, spokesperson for Grimsby Town Cricket Club, says: “As a community club, partnerships like this are incredibly important. The support from Switalskis will help us continue providing opportunities for people of all ages, genders and abilities to enjoy cricket and ensure the club remains a welcoming place for players, volunteers and supporters.

We’re delighted to welcome Switalskis as the naming rights sponsor and are looking forward to working in partnership over the next two years.”

It opened its full-service Grimsby office at Fisherman’s Wharf in March 2026.
