London, UK, 19th August 2025 – Zodia Markets, the digital asset platform reengineering how institutional capital moves, has announced its sponsorship of the girls’ and women’s teams at St Peter’s Cricket Club Brighton. The initiative is part of the firm’s Cricket for Her initiative, a commitment to helping female grassroots cricket thrive.

To mark the partnership, Zodia Markets hosted a friendly T20 match last week at Blackheath Cricket Club. The mixed-gender, all-ages, all-abilities fixture brought together players from across both teams to celebrate inclusivity and the shared love of the game.

The Cricket for Her programme is dedicated to making cricket more accessible and inclusive, ensuring every player has the opportunity to realise their full potential in the sport.

Bharvi Hadani, Chief Operating Officer, Zodia Markets comments, “Grassroots sport plays a huge role in building confidence, connection and community, values that resonate deeply with our culture at Zodia Markets. Our support for St Peter’s Cricket Club is about opening more doors for girls and women in cricket, ensuring they have the same access to opportunity, resources and encouragement as any other player.”

St Peter’s Cricket Club Brighton has a strong history of developing young talent and providing inclusive cricket for players of all ages and abilities.

Bibi Lees, Women and Girls’ Cricket Development Manager, St Peter’s Cricket Club Brighton added, “Zodia Markets’ three year sponsorship is a game-changer for our girls’ and women’s teams. It allows us to invest in coaching, equipment and playing opportunities, helping more players fall in love with the game and take their cricket to the next level.”

The partnership reflects Zodia Markets’ broader commitment to fostering diversity and inclusion, both in sport and in business, by providing the support and visibility that can help underrepresented communities thrive.
