The day, which takes place in the Aerotron Indoor School, gives the opportunity for anyone who believes they have what it takes to be a professional cricketer the chance to demonstrate their skills in front of the Sussex coaching staff.

Previous Open Trial Days have unearthed a number of cricketers that have gone on to play for Sussex, including seamer Billy Taylor and former England wicketkeeper, Tim Ambrose.
