Ancestry of Sydenham Cricket Club at Papers Past by Flagon Park ANCESTRY OF SYDENHAM CRICKET CLUB AT PAPERS PAST BY FLAGON PARK ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SYDENHAM DISTRICT CRICKET CLUB 1905-1920 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ As also in the case of Sydenham & Addington United, the story of the Sydenham (District) Cricket Club is well told by Dick BRITTENDEN in his centenary history of the Sydenham Cricket Club. Sydenham Cricket Club 100 Years : Centenary 9th-12th November 1995 District Cricket 1905-1918, by Dick BRITTENDEN. http://www.sydenhamcricket.com/Joomla/index.phpoption=com_wrapper&view=wrapper&Ite mid=59 The newspaper articles further below are a vey small sample of what is available at Papers Past concerning the Sydenham club between 1905 and 1920. I haven't looked hard at this part of the history of our club at Papers Past except to discover how it was affected by district cricket and the war, or note articles encountered in a semi-random way when I was investigating other topics. Separate articles will be written about district cricket and the war. Those interested in the more intricate details of performance of club teams, draws and makeup of sides from Saturday to Saturday in the 1905-1920 period can feed their obsessive desire by checking out each week's Monday editions of the local newspapers, exactly as one does today). Regular columns by cricket writers can be sought on other days of the week. Papers Past does not have Christchurch newspapers after 1920 so that anyone wishing to explore later editions will have to try the public library newspaper archives and so forth. At the AGM in 1905 the Sydenham & Addington Cricket Club disbanded and a new Sydenham District Cricket Club was immediately formed under guidelines established by the CCA. Sydenham was one of the six brand new clubs formed to take part in the CCA's new district competitions in all grades. Each new club had a geographical boundary defined by the CCA and one had to play for the club within whose boundaries one resided. This was a big break from the previous club system which since its start in 1882-83 had concentrated the best players in a very small number of clubs year after year, in fact decade after decade, making it hard for new players of ability to break into established combinations. In establishing the district format, the CCA was following the lead of successful district competitions developed in Australia and Auckland. District cricket was highly successful in Christchurch for a number of seasons but became untenable during the Great War due to the massive loss of players to the front, forcing the CCA to relax the residential requirement for membership of clubs in in 1915. East Shirley had already been allowed to become a more open club from 1911 due to boundary issues resulting from the industrialisation of its catchment area. In 1920 the CCA voted to officially abolish district cricket. Many cricketers had always disliked being unable join a club of their own choice, or the continuing tinkering with club boundaries, and in any case the district scheme was seen to have successfully completed its core task of breaking up the virtual closed shops of the pre-1905 club system. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ http://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/cgi-bin/paperspast?a=d&d=CHP19050721.2.41 Press, Volume LXII, Issue 12251, 21 July 1905, Page 6 THE CANTERBURY ASSOCIATION. DISTRICT SCHEME ADOPTED. A meeting of the Canterbury Cricket Association was held last night. Present— Messrs A. E. G. Rhodes (chairman). H. C. Ridley, J. C. Clarkson, A. E. M. Young, A. Costelloe, H. Whitta, W. C. H. Wigley, R. Vincent, J. Young, R. L. Bush. W. J. Walmsley, E. Jenkins, O. Caygill, F. C. Raphael, J. H. Williams, J. N. Fowke, J. E. Todhunter, J. D. Lawrence, A. Wilson, and D. H. Thomson (hon. secretary). The balance-sheet of the Association for the year ended May 31st, 1905, was submitted. It showed receipts amounting to £1205 10s 4d, leaving a credit balance of £175 18s 4d. The following items were shown on the credit side:— By football £377 8s 8d, fireworks £6 4s 3d. cycling £109 15s, cricket £507, athletics £153 2s, swimming £25, hockey £3 10s, debenture interest £10, sundry receipts £13 10s. The balance-sheet was adopted. Mr Caygill moved that a system of district matches to take the place of Cup cricket should be inaugurated. Most of the criticism levelled against the proposal had been against the partial district scheme. He could not agree with those who asserted that New Zealand was too small for district cricket; it was reasonable to suppose that the 60,000 inhabitants of Christchurch should be able to find players enough for six districts. It was a progressive scheme which had proved a success in Sydney, and would induce the public to take an added interest in the game. Mr Ridley seconded the motion, remarking that, though the prospects of the scheme did not appear to him so rosy as to the mover, he thought it well worthy of trial. Mr Vincent said he would prefer a partial scheme to the out-and-out scheme, as he thought there would be difficulty at first in the way of arranging grounds. He considered, however, that district cricket would cause more public interest to be taken in the game. The motion was then put and carried by 15 votes to 5. It was then unanimously resolved that the out-and-out district scheme be adopted. On the motion of Mr Caygill, it was decided that district clubs should be formed for St. Albans, Riccarton, Linwood, Sydenham, Christchurch East, and Christchurch West. The following rules were considered and adopted:— (1) A club shall be composed of members who have resided within the boundaries of their district not less than four months prior to the 1st October in each year. Any player changing his residence on or after 1st June shall play for the district in which he was residing on that date. Nothing in this rule shall prevent a resident or any district from becoming an honorary member of any other district club. (2) Any player arriving after 1st June may be allowed to play for the district in which he is residing upon satisfying the Competitions Committee that he intends to become a bona fide resident. (3) That all Association matches in which district or school club teams are engaged shall be played under this Association's rules for Cup matches. (4) That grounds be allocated to the various district clubs as follows: Lancaster Park: Christchurch East and Linwood; Hagley Park: Christchurch West, Riccarton, and St. Albans; Sydenham Park: Sydenham. (5) That players residing in the St. Albans district use their best endeavour to obtain suitable cricket ground within the boundaries of that district, at as early a date as possible, and that this Association gives all assistance in its power, both financially and otherwise, to further such a project, (6) That, boundaries of districts, as suggested, be subject to revision at the close of season. A sub-committee, consisting of Messrs Caygill, Raphael, and Thomson was appointed to interview the Hagley Park Ground Committee in reference to the appointment of trustees, in whom pavilions and other property should be invested. A further committee, composed of delegates from the various clubs, was set up to consider and report in regard to the fixing of boundaries. Press, Volume LXII, Issue 12269, 12 August 1905, Page 4 THE DISTRICT CRICKET SCHEME. BOUNDARIES OF THE DISTRICTS. The establishment of a scheme of district cricket is now an accomplished fact in Canterbury, and hopes are entertained that under the new system marked improvement will result in local cricket. At Thursday's meeting of the Canterbury Cricket Association, the boundaries of the districts were agreed to, and below are given the details of the limits of the districts:-- SYDENHAM DISTRICT Commencing at the termination of Hills road, thence northerly along the said road to Wilson's road, along Wilson's road to Shakespeare road, along Shakespeare road to Falsgrave street, along Falsgrave street to Moorhouse avenue, along Moorhouse to Selwyn street, thence southerly along Selwyn street to Selwyn road, along Selwyn road to Milton street, along Milton street to Wilderness road, southeasterly along Wilderness road to Port Hills, including Port Hills between the lines of Wilderness road and Hills road.

    Christchurch City Council (Lancaster Park) Land Vesting Bill Local Bill Explanatory note General policy statement The purpose ofthis Bill is to facilitate the redevelopment ofLancaster Park as a modern sports stadium for the future. Lancaster Park opened in 1881 and has been the venue for many im- portant sporting moments in Canterbury's history. From its opening until the First World War, the Park was owned by a private company. In 1919 Parliament passed the Victory Park Act which vested title to the land at Lancaster Park in the Crown to be used for cricket, rugby and other sports, amusements, entertainments, and events. The Act recorded that Lancaster Park was to be held in trust for those purposes in commemoration ofthe Canterbury soldiers who died in the service of New Zealand in the First World War. The Act established the Victory Park Board to control and manage the Park. Although the Act was called the Victory Park Act, the Park continued to be known in Canterbury and New Zealand by its original name of Lancaster Park. In 1997 it was realised that the facilities at Lancaster Park were not coping with demands. The public and sporting codes were increas- ingly demanding better facilities that were more appropriate to the 21 st Century. With the international growth of rugby and cricket in the 1990s, it became apparent that only facilities of a high standard 196--1 Christchurch City Council (Lancaster 2 Park) Land Vesting Bill Explanatory note would be used by those sports.

  • The Stadium Broadcast, a Radio Memorial Author: Dr Zita Joyce, University of Canterbury
    “We’re looking out through a window to a field of weeds and sand and stones”: The Stadium Broadcast, a radio memorial Author: Dr Zita Joyce, University of Canterbury Contact: Dr Zita Joyce [email protected] Media and Communication, University of Canterbury, Private Bag 4800 Christchurch 8140 New Zealand 1 “We’re looking out through a window to a field of weeds and sand and stones”: The Stadium Broadcast, a radio memorial Abstract: This paper explores the scope of small-scale radio to create an auditory geography of place. It focuses on the short term art radio project The Stadium Broadcast, which was staged in November 2014 in an earthquake-damaged sports stadium in Christchurch, New Zealand. Thousands of buildings and homes in Christchurch have been demolished since the Februrary 22, 2011 earthquake, and while Lancaster Park sports stadium is still standing, it has been unused since that date and its future remains uncertain. The Stadium Broadcast constructed a radio memorial to the Park’s 130 year history through archival recordings, the memories of local people, observation of its current state, and a performed site-specificity. The Stadium Broadcast reflected on the spatiality of radio sounds and transmissions, memory, post-disaster transitionality, and the im-permanence of place. 2 The Stadium Broadcast Introduction A long sequence of earthquakes affecting Christchurch city and the broader Canterbury region began on 4 September 2010, with the most damaging aftershock on 22 February, 2011, a magnitude 6.3 quake located under the hills on the southern edge of the city (Geonet, n.d.).

  • 2Nd Addington 1880-1895
    ANCESTRY OF SYDENHAM CRICKET CLUB AT PAPERS PAST BY FLAGON PARK -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE SECOND ADDINGTON CRICKET CLUB 1880-1895 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- John HOPPER, the president of the Hagley Oakleaf a.k.a. Christchurch Cricket Club, resigned from that position at a special meeting held a week after the 1879 AGM. In 1880 he called a meeting to form the second Addington Cricket Club and moved the motion at that meeting that the club be formed. The motion was seconded by William Thomas BURLEY who about a month before had been re-elected as Secretary at the 1880 AGM of the Christchurch Cricket Club! Other people at the meeting to form Addington had also attended the Christchurch AGM. By 1880 the Sydenham Borough acquired from the government the relatively small market reserve of 5 acres on the margin of the borough, named as the Sydenham Recreation Reserve by the borough and these days known as Addington Park. The reserve was previously the site of the city abbatoir having been set aside for that purpose in 1869. The second Addington Cricket Club formed ready for the 1880-81 season gained the use of the reserve but wanted a more suitable ground, and by the following season had gained a ground from the Domain Board of the City Council at the Lower Ground in Hagley Park roughly opposite St Asaph Street, which we know these days as Hospital Corner. Due to the heavy expense of renting, establishing and then maintaining the ground over several seasons, Addington eventually took up an offer to make its home ground at Hagley Oval.
