Title: Sovereign Cricket Co.
Post by: Bat and Ball Cricket on August 07, 2014, 12:22:46 PM
Hi all,

I've recently come across a new start up (new this year) bat maker, Sovereign Cricket Co.

Website - sovereigncricket.co.uk

From what I can see, their stuff looks first rate.

Anyone had anything to do with them/know more than on their site?

Cheers.

I was going to ask about these. They look fantastic, but I presume they don't make them themselves?

They look like robinson sports.
Also as a cricket site, they need to give options for left/right handed batsmen.  Saves email time!!

Spotted them a while ago - I don't think the website is totally finished hence the RH/LH options (you'd hope not anyway). Softs are definitely Robinsons.

Always suspect when they're using the same bats pictured for both the 5* and 8* ranges, the kit looks nice enough - the bats look very similar to the ones Python were selling, Garrett what do you reckon??

One thing that does annoy is this though: https://www.facebook.com/sovereigncricket/photos/pcb.861637907183742/861637607183772/?type=1&theater (https://www.facebook.com/sovereigncricket/photos/pcb.861637907183742/861637607183772/?type=1&theater) - they blatantly don't make the bats themselves so why pretend otherwise??

Well that's another potential name for my company down the drain! :/

You need something unique mate. Stay away from initials and animals because they are too many already.

Good pick ups. I know their online store only launched in the last week or so, so I'm thinking the few improvements will come with the maturity of the site.
