Middlesex Cricket is today delighted to announce that Marc Broom has been appointed to the role of Women’s head coach with immediate effect.
Broom takes on the role having most recently worked as Assistant head coach from Sunrisers between 2022-24, which ended with Sunrisers lifting the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy in the final year of the Elite women’s regionalised structure.
Having represented Middlesex age-groups from U-11 to U-19 and as a second Xl player for two seasons, Broom began his coaching career at Eastcote Cricket Club over two decades ago, where he remained actively involved over many years, in numerous coaching roles and as Director of Cricket between 2018 and 2022.

Marc Broom said, “I am genuinely honoured, privileged and excited to have the opportunity to be a part of the new phase of Middlesex Women’s cricket as Head Coach.
“It’s a fantastic time to be involved in Women’s cricket and the game is developing so quickly in all areas, and to have the responsibility of supporting the talented group of players through what is going to be a challenging but ultimately rewarding journey is one I’m going to relish,” said Marc Broom.
“The last three years with the Sunrisers have been unbelievable, and I’ve learned so much from both the coaching staff and players, especially Andy Tennant whose knowledge and experience as Head Coach have highlighted the processes needed to achieve the success possible.
“I can’t wait to get going and seeing where this team can go and what they can achieve,” concluded Marc Broom.
Alan Coleman, the club’s director of cricket said, “We are absolutely delighted that Mark has accepted our offer to become our new Women’s Head Coach. He stood out from an extremely high-quality list of candidates who applied for the role, and we are delighted to be working with him moving forwards.”
“This is an incredibly exciting time for the Women’s game, and whilst Middlesex begin the journey as a Tier Two side, we are already taking the first steps to securing Tier One status at the earliest opportunity, and Marc’s appointment is a significant step towards us getting there.
“The experience Marc gained with Sunrisers, with whom he has been on the same journey that Middlesex Women are now embarking on, will prove invaluable to us, as we look to professionalise the Women’s set-up here at Middlesex.
“He has a proven track record as a Coach at all levels and joins us fresh from having lifted two major trophies in the Women’s game in 2024. We are excited about what Marc will bring to the role and wish him every success with the Women’s playing group,” concluded Alan Coleman.
