Worcestershire announce profit

Worcestershire have announced a post-interest profit of £225,009 for the year ending 30 September 2012.

Despite a disappointing campaign in which they suffered relegation, this is the third successive year that the club has made a profit.

A major factor in the positive figures is the money made from land leased to a hotel company.

The club are currently building new facilities which they hope to use to increase their revenue streams.

"This will create a truly 365-day-a-year business with a long-term viable and sustainable future, ultimately allowing further investment both on and off the pitch," chief executive, David Leatherdale said.

"As we head into 2013 it is hoped the visit by Australia on the 2-5 July, as they warm up for the eagerly anticipated 2013 Ashes series, will also give the club and city a boost at the height of summer."
