Glamorgan Cricket is delighted to announce a partnership called `Tale-Enders’ with The University of Glamorgan as part of the Museum of Welsh Cricket project at the cricket club’s redeveloped stadium in Cardiff.

The Museum, located on the ground floor of The Really Welsh Pavilion at the club’s impressive new stadium in Cardiff, will celebrate the long, and rich, history of Welsh cricket, both at professional and club level. With this in mind, the `Tale-Enders` project – funded by a grant from the Arts and Humanities Research Council - will see research staff at the University gather and record the memories and artefacts of leading Welsh clubs and their members.

This archive material will form the heart of a series of displays when the Museum opens in the Autumn of 2008. The oral histories and digital images will also be assembled on a cricket heritage website which will support the activities of the Museum which has already received a generous grant of £516,000 from the Heritage Lottery Fund, especially the education and outreach programmes ahead of the Ashes Test Match between England and Australia at the Cardiff ground in 2009
