MEMBERS NEWS wood wades in to support flood appeal PCA Personal Development manager Matthew Wood put on his wellies to help flood-stricken Lancashire club. nutrient-rich Grant Hodnett, the former Gloucestershire batsman, has launched his own nutrition company. Hodnett, who is now based in Manchester, qualified as a personal trainer with financial support from the PCA and made such an impression that one of his clients suggested that he should pass on his expertise by running his own company. Grant Hodnett Nutrition has now been formed with James Taylor, Lauren Winfield and Lancashire’s Arron Lilley already enlisted as brand ambassadors for a range of fitness supplements. Hodnett’s double garage has now been turned into a warehouse for the tubs and bottles that contain the supplements and is rightly proud at having established the business himself. “You need to find a really clean and certified manufacturer for the supplements. Mine is based down in Cardiff they have 28 years of experience in terms of formulation and they do a lot of high end products that are available not just for professional sports people but those who want to use the gym,” Hodnett said “The powders start in liquid form and it’s amazing to watch the process which turns it into powder. “Packaging is very important, I have spent a lot of time making sure the products properly protected by having tubs which have a double safety seal. “It’s important to get the right information across in the image of the product and style of your labelling because there are a lot of products on the market that are over-loaded with information. “Apart from help in setting up my website I have done everything myself. It can be daunting at first but, with my background in cricket, it has helped to open doors for me away from the game.” Hodnett, 33, continued his first-class career back in his native South Africa for Kwa-Zulu Natal but he now plays as a professional for Oldham-based Moorside in the Pennine League as well as working as personal trainer and running his expanding business which he hopes will soon include protein bars and pre-exercise shots. Matthew Wood, one of the PCA’s team of Personal Development and Welfare Managers joined Lancashire players and staff including new captain Steven Croft, director of cricket Ashley Giles and former England wicketkeeper Warren Hegg in helping the Ramsbottom club recover from severe flooding on Boxing Day. Ramsbottom’s ground was submerged under several feet of water during the flood but Wood and the Lancashire contingent were among a team of volunteers who gave up their time to help remove mud from the outfield and square of the Lancashire League club’s ground. Lancashire had already set up the Red Rose Flood Appeal to help other stricken clubs which quickly reached its target of £10,000. “The lads jumped at the chance to do it, we all wanted to help. We have all come through clubs like this - and it beats a bit of running in pre-season training,” Croft said. 4 BtB issue 18 / thepca.co.uk
