Law firm Clarke Willmott has renewed its long-standing partnership with Somerset County Cricket Club.
Clarke Willmott will remain one of the club’s preferred legal partners for 2026, continuing over 30 years of providing legal advice and support to the club, which is based at the Cooper Associates County Ground in Taunton.
Clarke Willmott will also act as match sponsors for both the men’s and women’s teams and continue as valued members of the 1875 Club. Clarke Willmott’s branding will also be displayed on the big screens for every boundary in this season’s Metro Bank One Day Cup competitions. 
Peter Swinburn, CEO of Clarke Willmott, said: “We are delighted to continue to grow our relationship with Somerset County Cricket Club.
“Having recently moved back to the area (and having been a member of the Club when growing up), it is amazing to see the prestige of SCCC and what it means to the county and the wider national cricket community. The performance and success of the last few years is astonishing, and we are proud and privileged to be a key partner standing side by side.”
Kirill Bingham, head of Clarke Willmott’s Taunton office, said that with over 30 years of involvement in Somerset cricket, the firm remains closely connected to the club and its community initiatives.
“I am sure we share the same ethos of hard work, dedication and a winning mentality and can’t wait to support all the playing staff during the season,” he said.
Somerset CCC Commercial Director, Caroline Herbert added: “Everyone at Somerset County Cricket Club extends their sincere thanks to Clarke Willmott for their support over the past three decades.
“For more than 30 years, Clarke Willmott has played their part in the Club’s journey, establishing themselves as a valued and trusted Commercial Partner. Their long-standing commitment has made a significant impact both on and off the field, and we are proud of the strong relationship we have built together.
“We look forward to continuing this successful partnership for many years to come as we build on our shared ambitions for the future.”
