While studying for his degree at Loughborough University,[1] Cope made his first-class debut for Loughborough UCCE against Warwickshire in 2008.[2] Injuries hampered Cope, with him missing the entire 2009 season. Returning from injury for the 2010 season, he was named captain of Loughborough MCCU (as it was now called following a renaming).[3] He made two further first-class appearances in 2010, against Kent and Yorkshire.[2] In his three first-class matches, he scored 84 runs at an average of 16.80, with a high score of 51.[4]

Alan now focuses his sporting attention on golf. He is a bandit and should be playing off a far lower handicap.
