Glamorgan Cricket is delighted to announce that seamer Andy Gorvin and off-spinner Tegid Phillips have signed contracts with the club.
Gorvin has penned a one-year professional deal, while Phillips has signed a one-year rookie contract.
Gorvin initially joined on a one-month short-term contract during the summer and played four List A matches during the Welsh county’s winning Royal London Cup campaign.
The 24-year-old is a product of the Cardiff UCCE set up and has also featured for Wales National County, while he plays his club cricket for St. Fagans in the South Wales Premier League.
Phillips, 19, has come through the Glamorgan Academy system and won the Academy Player of the Year award at the recent Player Awards for his performances for Wales National County (WNC) and the Glamorgan second eleven.
He took 3/39 for WNC against Berkshire in the semi-finals of the National Counties Trophy and 6/56 for Glamorgan against Northamptonshire in the Second Eleven Championship at Newport Cricket Club earlier this season.
On signing for Glamorgan, Andy Gorvin, said: “I've had a good year in the second team and enjoyed being part of the one-day squad, so it's great to be a full-time pro.
“When I started the season that was the end goal and I'm looking forward to having a good winter and taking that into next summer.
"I've got a lot of hard work to do and I just hope that if I get the opportunity next year I'll take it."
Director of cricket, Mark Wallace, added: “Andy has impressed everyone at the club with his attitude over the summer, while his performances in the second eleven, league cricket and during the Royal London Cup show he is a talented cricketer who deserves an opportunity at this level.
“He fitted seamlessly into the squad when he arrived and plays with a lot of desire and we look forward to working with him over the next year.
“Tegid is a very talented off-spinner who has performed well at every level he’s played at this season. He spins the ball hard and is definitely one for the future.”
