Gloucestershire County Cricket Club to rebrand as Bristol

Summarised from BristolLive's report · Updated 5 Nov, 22:04 · Archive

Gloucestershire County Cricket Club will be known as Bristol in the T20 Blast next season.

Gloucestershire County Cricket Club will adopt the name Bristol for the T20 Blast next season, the club has confirmed. The rebrand applies to both men's and women's teams in the short-form competition, as part of what the club describes as 'an exciting new chapter in our evolution'.

The club stated that the move is intended to grow domestic cricket, attract new audiences across the region, and drive commercial reinvestment into the sport. Gloucestershire Cricket will continue to serve as the overarching identity for the club. Members were informed of the plans at meetings at the County Ground in Bristol on Wednesday and in Cheltenham on Thursday. Full details of the rebrand and new visual identity will be unveiled in alignment with the ECB's domestic fixture release, traditionally towards the end of November.
