Last year, the club welcomed 23-year-old Indian prospect Mairaj Khan who performed well for the team and they are again looking to the sub continent to recruit an overseas player.
Assistant secretary for the club, Luke Bannister, said: “He came as a bowler but he was second highest run scorer in the league.
“He was also a very good slip fielder. Unfortunately, he is doing his masters degree so he can't come back this year. We were hoping to have him for two or three years.”
The club is looking for accommodation for their pro for the new season.
Any new pro the club recruits will have to find a place stay between April and September. Mr Banniser said: “We are hoping someone may have a place or a spare room to rent in Evenwood or the surrounding villages.”
Anyone who can help can contact Mr Bannister on 07522 456640.
Meanwhile, the club is looking for new youngsters to sign up for their very successful junior teams.
The club wants young people between the ages of six and 15 to join because many of their young cricketers have moved up with age.
Mr Bannister said: “We had a good under 11s team but they have got older so we need some more.”
Any young people from Evenwood or the surrounding villages keen to get involved in the sport can contact Mr Bannister.
