Archie Houghton (21), an exciting bowling all-rounder from Northampton, England.
A Northamptonshire County Cricket Club pathway graduate, he represented the County from U9 through to U19, earning a place in the Academy for two years and featuring in the 2nd XI on multiple occasions. While he narrowly missed out on a professional contract, he has continued to thrive at a high level.
Since the age of 18, Houghton has represented Bedfordshire County Cricket Club in the NCCA Championship and Trophy and was the leading wicket taker for the County during the 2024 campaign.
Houghton moved north for his university studies at Leeds Bradford University, where he has been a key member of the MCCU squad for the past two years. He also played a crucial role in the BUCS National Championship final at Lord’s, where his side narrowly fell short against a strong Oxford team.
While based in Leeds, Houghton has been an integral part of Ossett Cricket Club, competing in the prestigious Bradford Premier League. A genuine all-rounder, the left-arm spinner has not only been a consistent wicket-taker but has also demonstrated his batting prowess, registering a highest score of 85 last summer.
Now in his final year of university, Houghton is ready for a season Down Under, looking to refine his skills, gain new experiences, and push for a return to County Cricket.
A high-class bowling all-rounder who will be a major asset both on and off the field.
