Nick Folland

Nicholas Arthur Folland (born 17 September 1963) is a former first-class cricketer, who represented Somerset County Cricket Club between 1992 and 1994. He is now a school headmaster.

Life and career Nick Folland studied at Loughborough University, gaining a BSc and a PGCE. After graduating, he taught young deaf people for three years before joining the staff at Blundell's School in Devon. These turned out to be the only two first-class hundreds of his career. He left regular cricket midway through the 1994 season, deciding, according to Wisden, that "regular first-class cricket was not for him".

He was the Head of Blundell's preparatory school for ten years. He became Head of St John's on the Hill Preparatory School in Chepstow, Monmouthshire, in 2011. From 2015 to 2021, he was Headmaster of Sherborne Prep.

His brother, Neil, taught at Haberdashers' Aske's Boys School with his Devon teammate Doug Yeabsley.
