Graeme Swann has stepped down from the General Committee of Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club.
\n\u00a0
\nThe former England and Nottinghamshire off-spinner served throughout the 2025 and 2026 seasons following success in the election results announced at the club\u2019s 2025 Annual General Meeting.<\/p>\n
Nottinghamshire CCC Chairman, Andy Hunt, said: \u201cGraeme is quite simply one of the best players, characters and ambassadors to have represented our club and our country and his contribution to Nottinghamshire is significant.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re obviously disappointed to lose someone of Graeme\u2019s calibre, but we respect his choice and wish him the very best for the future.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe will forever be a friend of the club, for his commitment and exploits both on and off the field over a number of years, and he will always be welcome at Trent Bridge.\u201d<\/p>\n
Swann, 47, made the decision to step away owing to competing demands on his time with his media and coaching commitments forcing frequent travel and periods of intense working.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis wasn\u2019t an easy decision to make, but it\u2019s one I feel I have to as my schedule has become particularly pressing,\u201d said Swann.<\/p>\n
\u201cI hold Nottinghamshire in extremely high regard and it\u2019s been an honour to serve on the General Committee.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Graeme Swann has stepped down from the General Committee of Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club. \u00a0 The former England…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":810693,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[18304,1721,18306,15257,18308,101,18303,18305,56,54,55,18307],"class_list":["post-810692","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cricket","tag-bridge","tag-cricket","tag-nottingham","tag-nottinghamshire","tag-outlaws","tag-sports","tag-trent","tag-trentbridge","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom","tag-west-bridgford"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/810692","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=810692"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/810692\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/810693"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=810692"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=810692"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=810692"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
