Testimonials

We’re very proud of what we do here at World Sports Exchange, take a look at some of our testimonials

Rob listened carefully to our criteria and budget for an overseas player and provided us with a choice of appropriate candidates… no unending list of players for us to filter through. We found Rob to be very efficient and professional throughout the recruitment process and having supplied us Rob kept in touch to ensure that both club and player were happy. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Rob again in the future.

I can say that this is the 1st season we have used an agency to secure our overseas player and we are delighted with the service we got from Rob. We are also more than pleased with our overseas player and would recommend any club to contact Rob at World Sports Xchange first when looking to recruit an overseas player. The most pleasing aspect of dealing with Rob is the friendly, nothing is any trouble service he offers, always only a phone call away and more often than not it was Rob contacting us to make sure we were happy. After contacting several agencies for a player for the 2010 season, Rob found us a very special player, for our limited budget. Thankyou Rob and we look forward to working with you for many years to come.

I want to thank you for all your hard work in such a short space of time to get us an overseas player on a tight budget. It was so refreshing to get a phone call from you on the same day rather than waiting 2 weeks for even a basic email response from other agents. Thanks again.

We used World Sports Xchange in the 2009 season and they recruited us a player from Australia. I think I can speak on behalf of the entire club in saying that he was one of the best overseas players we have ever had and were sorry to see him go. Robbie provided a great deal of support before and during the season and did an excellent job in recruiting the right player for us. Our offer wasn’t the best, and we were looking for a specific type of player, not only did Robbie provide us with someone who was well matched for the standard of our league, they were also a great guy to have around and mix in with everyone at our cricket club. All the relevant paperwork and visa applications were completed with the minimum of fuss and on time allowing the player to arrive well on time.

In short I wouldn’t hesitate in using World Sports Xchange and Robbie again, or indeed recommending them for other clubs.

I will be forever grateful for the opportunity World Sports Xchange gave me in my first venture in to playing in the UK. I had been let down in previous season by major agents but my patience was rewarded when I began to deal with Rob. I have been placed in a great club and have been completely satisfied with the service provided by World Sports Xchange.

We decided to use the World Sports Xchange service for the first time to recruit our overseas player for the 2010 season. From our first chat to the final exchange of contracts we found the service that Rob offered to be highly efficient, responsive and professional. Our requirements were very specific, and due to an original player pulling out during the process, slightly longer than we had expected, but eventually we were able to identify the right candidate and throughout the process we maintained in contact with the agent. Rob also played his part in helping the player to settle in to his new surrounds, and has continued to keep in touch during the season to check up on the players progress. We will be looking to use Rob again in future seasons

This year was the first year that Bradenham Cricket Club has used Rob Humphries to source an overseas player. The first attempts were unsuccessful although not due to any way to Rob’s input. Indeed, following the withdrawal of the players availability, this made Rob even more determined to find us the player we needed. He managed this well and we have a player who is currently performing well for us. There were a couple of teething problems early on but Rob maintained his interest and helped smooth these over quickly. We would not hesitate to use him again in future seasons.

We have used World Sports Xchange since its inception in 2008, we have had 6 players in all from WSX and do not hesitate to recommend them

Trevor Goddard
Chairman, Norwich & Coltishall Wanderers CC

In the 3 years that I have been responsible for locating and negotiating with overseas players and agents I have dealt with numerous agents. Their standard has ranged from appalling to excellent. I can honestly say that Rob Humphries has been the most professional and up front agent I have dealt with. The league we play in the North East Premier League is a very competitive league and I have found that other agents are very happy to recommend players that are not good enough to play within the league to ensure that they place their client. Whereas Rob gave excellent advice about whether he thought a player which he represented would be of the required standard.

I also found Rob extremely efficient in negotiations; it took 7 days from the club informing him that we were interested in one of his players to receiving the signed contract from the player. Rob was always willing to answer queries by emails or phone and always replied swiftly which is not always the case with other agents.
I would therefore not hesitate to recommend Rob Humphries & World Sports Xchange.

Formerly Captain of Newcastle Cricket Club

For the past two seasons Rob at World Sports Xchange has worked tirelessly to find our club a placement that is suitable for both player and our club. Despite the club being an ECB Premier club with few finances, Rob has continued to encourage players to join us and works very much with the values we have as a club. I would highly recommend his personal, professional and caring service to any club looking for a player, or any player looking for a UK club
