The 13th annual Irish Cricket Awards – being held on 6 March in Dublin – are to be supported by DMG Media, through their Business Plus brand. This will be the second year the media title will feature as the title sponsor.
DMG Media, Cricket Ireland’s Official Media Partner, is continuing to build close ties with the Irish cricket community and views the 13th Business Plus Irish Cricket Awards 2025 as an important statement in achieving this aim.
“The team at DMG Media is excited to deepen our partnership with Cricket Ireland by supporting the key event that honours the players, coaches, match officials, and volunteers who contribute to making cricket one of the most vibrant and welcoming sports on this island,” said Fintan Gavigan, Group Head of Marketing for DMG Media Ireland.
“Our brands are all about engaging audiences through great content.”
“Cricket helps us achieve this ambition. We enjoy telling the story of Irish cricket and we hope to be supporting the growth of the sport across Ireland for many more years to come.”
“The team from DMG Media Ireland have been a delight to work with over the last 12 months and I’d like to thank CEO Paul Henderson, Fintan Gavigan, and their broader team for their support of Irish cricket,” added Cricket Ireland CEO Warren Deutrom.
“Business Plus is a trusted and much-respected title that we are delighted to associate with this important annual event. The DMG team produced some exceptional content last year that brought our event alive for those following online in particular. Those from across the Irish cricket family that we celebrate deserve no less, and I look forward to another great Awards event in March.”
The 13th Business Plus Irish Cricket Awards 2025 will feature sixteen award categories that recognise players, coaches, volunteers, groundskeepers, officials, and clubs for the contribution they make to the game in Ireland.
