At this moment in time the existing committee members are not prepared to reveal his identity other than to say, he knows his league cricket across Yorkshire and will be a major asset to them.
"We have had several meetings with him and we know what he wants for this club and one of his targets is to get players in between the ages of 17 and 22," said committee member Glyn Owen.
"He has already been talking to good players in that age bracket from the Aire-Wharfedale League and the Central Yorkshire League and several are virtually signed."
"At the moment there doesn't appear to be any Bradford League players on his list and he says he is looking to give these promising players a chance and a break in the game by putting them in the shop window of arguably the strongest league in this country.
"I also understand he is in touch with a Sri Lankan professional who is playing A Grade in Australia (Sheffield Shield) at this time. I gather he is a batter and slow bowler."
Owen also revealed that the first team commence their 2008 nets next week at Headingley Carnegie and that he and his colleagues were progressing nicely with their work on getting Brighouse CC a Club Mark award.
"We had Yorkshire Cricket Association chief Tony Bowery in two weeks ago and he came over again Wednesday evening for more work on it with us," added Owen.
LIGHTCLIFFE Cricket Club have re-signed opening bat Nick Pyrah after a five year absence.
In the meantime Pyrah, 32, has been playing Halifax League cricket with Copley along with another former Wakefield Roader, Neil Whittaker who retired at the end of the 2007 season.
Pyrah's return has coincided with the expected departure of last season's opener with Michael Brooke, Rod Hinch, who has moved to live in Beverley and looks like returning to the Costcutter York Senior League.
Pyrah, who came to Lightcliffe via Elland CC's Junior section and became highly successful before leaving in 2002, also has connections at the club via his father Alan who played for Lightcliffe.
In the meantime the cricket committee of chairman John Brooke, Bruce Lunn and skipper Richard Nichols have been talking to a couple of players sound in the knowledge that nobody apart from Hinch is leaving them.
"We have no names for you at this moment other than to say one is a Bradford League player and the other a Yorkshire League player," said Brooke.
"Depending on what we are signing from this country will decide on whether we look for an overseas player or not.
"The squad will benefit from Nick rejoining us and with two or three more additions we should do well."
Brooke also confirmed despite Division One interest their leading batsmen over the past couple of seasons, Jonathan `Jocky' Wilson was staying with them.
HARTSHEAD Moor's cricket committee chairman David Baldwin informed Echo Sport his club would not be re-signing Pakistani professional Adnan Raees.
"He will be out of our price bracket this time for they tend to come to us and do well and then the price goes up," said Baldwin.
"We could be looking for another overseas player by February but in the meantime we have lost nobody and will be progressing hopefully on the one or two names that we have spoken to.
"Matthew Evans is stepping down as captain after three seasons to focus on his cricket. It is a difficult post to hold down as with a small club and a small committee everything falls on the captain's shoulders.
"At bigger clubs they have a cricket chairman who has a bigger budget to work with and a selection committee to assist. Three years has probably worn him down somewhat and taken the gloss off his cricket, for he is a good player. He can now concentrate on his cricket while we look for another captain.
"We are also looking to introduce a younger element into the first team and with little to spend on players we have very much to bring our own on. To this end and also to bring in more members for we are somewhat out in the stickshere at Highmoor Lane and with no passing trade we need some bar revenue. Especially after that horrendous summer and to help finance our plans to refurbish parts of the clubhouse and the scoreboard.
"The latter is our priority right now and we have some re-roofing to do and keep this ground our pride and joy."
While Hartshead Moor currently run Under-13 and 15 sides they are looking for next season to commence with Under-9s and also add Under-17s, so if you are interested please call in at the clubhouse ( or ring 01274-861504) and see the committee of an evening or push your details through the letter box.
