Sarah Parker is a talented opening batter who bowls off-spin pushing for professional honours in New Zealand domestic cricket.
Parker, who opens the batting for Lancaster Park Premier Women's alongside former White Ferns international Frankie Mackay, has been involved with the Canterbury Development squad and was involved with the Otago Sparks training squad in the past. It seems only a matter of time till she earns full selection to play in New Zealand's Women's domestic competitions.
The daughter of a former professional cricketer, Parker has grown up around high-level sport, cricket, and netball, in particular. Unfortunately, her early career was hampered by injury but after two major knee surgeries (aged 15/16), she has returned to full fitness and is incredibly driven to break into professional cricket. In 2021/22, she topped Lancaster Park's Premier Women run charts so clearly has all the tools to progress in the game.
Holder of a British Passport, Parker has also enjoyed two stints abroad. During her gap year (2028), she worked in a PE Department in Stratford-upon-Avon delivering various sports at the school, including cricket. She even created a cricket coaching manual that the school still uses to this day.
Last summer, she returned purely for the cricket, and dominated for Lindow helping the club win the Cheshire Women's Cricket League (Div 2). Parker was a league stand-out, with both bat and ball and an all-round star for the club.
Parker is now open to for another UK stint in 2024 and given her UK Passport status, will be a sought after acquisition.
