Good to know about Gray-Nicolls
Gray-Nicolls grows its own English willow and says it is the only company in the industry to do so, with a plantation at Etchingham that has remained in the company’s hands since the 1920s and operations at Robertsbridge. Each cleft is air-dried for around six weeks, graded by master graders, shaped by Master Bat Makers, pressed and struck with a traditional Lignum Vitae mallet before the bat carries the Gray-Nicolls name. The brand offers a concierge service on certain bats to choose a desired weight, size guides across clothing, footwear, protective equipment and bats, bat sizing from size 0 to 6 through Harrow, Short Handle and Long Blade or Long Handle, and a loyalty programme where points are redeemed as vouchers through the account loyalty hub, with one voucher allowed per order.
