England women’s cricket team’s wicket-keeper Tammy Beaumont started playing cricket at a very early age. All of her family members were quite supportive and played a vital part in her cricketing journey. There was a time when Beaumont along with her brother and father were playing for the same team.

Beaumont was born on March 11, 1991, in Dover, Kent. The journey of Beaumont was not smooth at all. She started her career at the age of eight, but she faced food allergies which slowed down her body growth. Beaumont could not make it to the Kent U-11 side because of the very same reason.
Beaumont’s mother advised her to join Gymnastics in order to build muscles. She followed her mom’s suggestion and went on to win the National Gymnastics Championships. Talking about her education, she completed her graduation in Chemistry and Sports Science at Loughborough University.

Tammy Beaumont Family Members
Kevin Beaumont is Tammy’s father and he is a research scientist. Julie Beaumont is Tammy’s mother. She also has a brother named Michael. Michael also played cricket and was the captain of a U-11 side coached by Kevin. It is quite an interesting story that Julie convinced Kevin and Michael to select Tammy for their team when she was just eight years old.
Tammy once revealed how she used to keep the wickets and her brother used to field at the cow corner. Kevin was an off-spinner and all three of them made their names on the scorecard quite a few times.
“Michael was a very good fielder, so he’d be at cow corner and I’d be keeping … The number of times it was ‘stumped or caught Beaumont, bowled Beaumont’ was ridiculous.”
England won the ICC Women’s World Cup in 2017 and Tammy was the leading run-scorer. She was then appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 2018 New Year Honours list.
