A wicket-keeper-batsman, Coverdale won four blues at Cambridge University, and made 46 first-class appearances, scoring 1,245 runs at 18.04, with a top score of 75. He took 41 catches and 10 stumpings, and took a wicket in his only first-class over, which was also a maiden. He had a distinguished career in cricket administration, before joining a hospitality firm, European Events, in 2005. A qualified solicitor, Coverdale joined the BBC as a broadcaster and Head of Department, before being appointed as Chief Executive of Northamptonshire County Cricket Club in 1985, a post he held for a record nineteen years. His broadcasting career included a spell during the early 80s as anchorman for the BBC Radio Leeds Saturday sports programme during the winter months. He is the father of Paul Coverdale, a cricketing all-rounder who was, until 2007, on Northamptonshire's staff. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stephen Coverdale」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
