He was awarded due to his First XI performance at Malvern College in 2022. Olly scored a total of 1,392 runs. This averages 69 runs per innings, including four centuries.

Last June, Olly signed a professional contract with Worcestershire County Cricket Club.

Former Malvern College pupil Tom Kohler-Cadmore has also won the award in 2013.

Mark Hardinges, Master of Cricket, said: ‘Oliver is an exceptional sportsman and this accolade not only recognises his skill as a sportsman but his commitment to a sport that he showed so much passion for during his time at Malvern.’
