About Us
AT BLUE TONGUE SPORTS (BTS) WE ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT CRICKET. WE LIVE CRICKET 24 HOURS A DAY
The blue tongue name is proudly traditional to the Australian culture and is easily recognisable around the world. Our plan is to make our product available to anyone who loves this great sport.BTS is the brainchild of Dennis Papworth & Craig Bayldon both cricket tragics who have an unrivalled passion for the game. Even today with their ageing bodies feeling the pinch they still manage to play at a decent level. The difference is we don’t have to pay large endorsements to players and can pass the savings directly on to our customers.
BTS evolved as the boys couldn’t believe the monopoly the big players have in controlling the market and how hard it was to get products off them for their sporting goods company. As a result they decided to start there own brand. They have been actively sourcing the best products from around the globe. Our batmaker is one of the best in the world and his bats speak for themselves. He has worked in England and served his apprenticeship under the guidance of arguably the greatest batmaker Julian Millichamp.
OUR PRODUCTS ARE EQUALLY AS GOOD OR IF NOT BETTER THAN THE MAJOR BRANDS.
The difference is we don’t have to pay large endorsements to players and can pass the savings directly on to our customers. As a result we are producing custom made cricket bats that are comparable with the big companies. All of our custom made bats are manufactured using grade one English willow.
