Sam Ferguson is an exciting batting prospect coming through the Central Districts ranks in New Zealand.
A schoolboy prodigy, British-born Ferguson enjoyed a glittering junior career for Lindisfarne College (NZ Junior Secondary Schoolboys), and both Hawkes Bay and CD age groups.
An attacking opening batter, Ferguson represented CD in two NZ Under-19 Tournaments (Dec 2019, Dec 2020), either side of his prolific Under-17 Tournament (Jan 2019).
During the latter, he became one of the only cricketers to register a double century in New Zealand provincial age-group history, hitting 200* against Otago U17s. He would go on to top the tournament run charts (418 runs at 83.60) to include another big century (144) against Canterbury U17s.
Courtesy of his junior exploits, he was selected for the New Zealand U19 World Cup training camp but was unfortunately overlooked for the tournament team.
Nevertheless, despite his exclusion, Ferguson has continued to excel in cricketing circles, making a successful transition to senior men’s cricket in the Hawkes Bay playing Premier cricket for Havelock North Cricket Club.
In recent seasons, not only has Ferguson been his club's top run scorer, but he has the ability to bowl spin and keep wicket. He is also a keen, and active coach within the club, and has led the social side in recent seasons.
The dual Passport holder also enjoyed a strong stint abroad last season (2023) playing for Dutch club Sparta 1888. He was a great success throughout their Topklasse campaign and is now open to a return, whether that be to Holland or the UK next summer.
