The former Leicestershire wicket-keeper took up the role of Senior Coach in 2011 and also continues to run the Club’s Academy alongside Lloyd Tennant.

During his eleven years in the first team at Grace Road, prior to the emergence of Paul Nixon, he claimed 323 first class victims to put him eighth in the all-time list of Leicestershire wicketkeepers.

His best season was 1988 when he completed 73 dismissals, which is the fourth best in the club’s history, while he also proved to be a capable middle to lower order batsman, making one century in scoring 3,113 runs in his first-class career.

Whitticase then joined the coaching staff at Grace Road and was named as Head Coach from the 2001 season. He was also named Academy Director in 2003 and continued in those roles when Tim Boon was named Senior Coach in 2006.

Whitticase will still oversee the development and progress of the young players at the Club as well as conducting his first team duties.
