Leighton Shuttleworth, a dedicated all‑rounder and respected coach from West Yorkshire, England.
A dependable right-handed top-order batter and clever off-spinner, Leighton has been a First XI stalwart for Sandal Cricket Club in the Bradford Premier Cricket League (Division One) the past five seasons, and in 2025, stepped confidently into the opening role. While renowned for his stability with the bat, he continues to make crucial breakthroughs with the ball, regularly contributing in both league and cup competitions.
Leighton’s cricketing foundation was laid at Queen Elizabeth Grammar School (QEGS), Wakefield, where standout performances for the First XI earned him county age-group recognition, setting him on the path to senior cricket success.
While completing his studies at the University of Nottingham, he trained with the university’s cricket programme for three years, refining his game in a high-performance environment alongside aspiring professionals. This experience has enhanced his tactical awareness and all-round cricketing intelligence.
Off the field, Leighton is a passionate advocate for youth development. He currently manages and coaches an U15 side at Sandal, running training sessions and mentoring emerging talent. His Level 2 coaching qualifications and hands-on involvement underscore his commitment to contributing to the wider club community.
Now ready to expand his horizons, Leighton is eyeing a season in the Southern Hemisphere for 2025/26, with aspirations to immerse himself in a new club culture, contribute to coaching structures, and make a valuable impact both on and off the field.
