Warwickshire County Cricket Club have signed wicket keeper/batsman Alex Mellor on a one-year contract.
The 24 year old who was born in Stoke, has played five second eleven games for Warwicks and Dougie Brown, Warwickshire CCC Director of Cricket, said: “Alex has impressed with bat and gloves during his time with the second team and we hope that he can develop in to a top class keeper/batsman by working closely with Tony Frost and our coaching team at Edgbaston.”
Alex Mellor said: “I have had a fantastic welcome from the coaching team and players since joining the Bears and I’m very excited to be joining such a great Club.
“Whilst the current season is coming to a close, I can’t wait to get started again in November and hopefully developing my game further.
“I have received great support in reaching this point in my career, in signing my first professional contract, I would like to thank my family for all the support they have given me over the years.”
