Robeco sponsors speedster Edwards

Sydney Sixers and NSW Rookie fast bowler Mickey Edwards has been sponsored by Robeco for the 2015/16 season.

Robeco came on-board as Mickey’s sponsor at a time when he was just about to have the biggest year of his career, haviong just signed contracts with both the Sixers and the Blues. Unfortunately it hasn’t turned out that way as Mickey is currently recovering from a back injury. However, in a great sign, Mickey has returned to the bowling crease and should be back with the Tahs sometime in the 2nd half of the season.

We are hopefuly that Robeco’s parternship with Mickey will help his recovery. The partnership has come through Brett Penprase who is well known to the club, having previously been assistant coach for 2 years. “BP” as he is effectionatly known had a long playing career at Northern Districts and stil follows both clubs very closely. It’s great to have former grade cricketers and coaches still involved and interested in grade cricket.

Robeco offers investment solutions and is a global leader in sustainability investing. Robeco has EUR 238 billion in assets under management. They offer their clients a unique advantage – local presence and specialist investment capabilities combined with the global support and expertise of Robeco Group, their parent company headquartered in the Netherlands.

“I have a real soft spot for Manly having been involved with the club for a couple of years” said Brett.

“There are some great people involved and it seems to be run so well.

“But I was mainly drawn by supporting Mickey. He was coming through the lower grades when I was coaching at the club so I had a fair bit to do with him. It’s been great to see his progression over the last 2 or 3 seasons into a top class bowler.

“I am very hopeful that he will come back bigger and better from his injury”.
