It promises to be an exciting season for Ballymena, who will be hoping to add more silverware to the Eaton Park cabinet as the season begins.

South African all-rounder Glenn Adams joins along with Ryan McKenna and Mark Stinson.

"We are excited about this year with Ryan McKenna, Mark Stinson and Glenn Adams (our professional) coming into the team we are looking forward to their affect on our growth and that of our returning predominantly young team," skipper John Glass told CricketEurope.

"We have high hopes for Owen Dick who bowled excellently last year. Stevie Bristow, Michael Glass and Sam Glass had standout performances as well last season and I see no reason why we shouldn’t see more from them.

"This is always a competitive league and we are ready for the challenge."

Ballymena begin their season Saturday (April 22) with an away game at Donacloney Mill.
