Durham Cricket Club saw turnover and profits jump last year as the sporting world began to bounce back from the Covid-19 pandemic.
The club, based at the Riverside in Chester-le-Street, has published accounts for the year ending September 30 2021 in which turnover rose significantly, from £4.649m to £7.109m as sporting events returned to the calendar following the lifting of Government lockdowns in the wake of Covid-19.
Operating profit saw a fourfold increase, from £320,226 to £1.298m, and pre-tax profit also rocketed from £343,696 to £1.055m.
