ANNUAL 2016 / 2017 REPORT Page 1 of 71 Page 2 of 71 PRESIDENT’S REPORT What an interesting season! For the first time we had a weekend called off not because of rain but because of heat only then to discover the mens final series thrown into chaos with the wet weather. We had 189 players in the junior competition, 209 senior players and a girls team making us one of the largest Clubs in the Sutherland Shire. In terms of on field performance we won 4 premierships (3 in mens and the girls summer competition) there were 13 centuries scored, 22 Michelles and 3 hat tricks. A great feature of the season were the presentation nights for the seniors at our good friends down at Boyles following the conclusion of the mens finals and the new format for the junior presentation held after the conclusion of the junior finals. Overall I believe that the idea of having the presentation at the conclusion of the season is the right way to go albeit it does require a bit of work from the hard working committee. Special thanks to all the committee members this year. Whilst it is a small group of people they work very well together to get almost 30 teams on the paddocks each season. A number of the committee are looking to retire so I would encourage anyone who would like to assist in the Club to step up no matter how small the contribution. One of the success factors the committee has achieved is produce a policy and procedure document which outlines what needs to be done, by whom and by when. With the advent of BBL and WBBL, time pressures on families and the increasing competition from other sports and activities over summer, the game of cricket cannot rest on its laurels and must continue to develop to be fresh and appealing for both juniors, parents and seniors. Recently Cricket Australia has released some proposed modifications to the junior game which is aimed to increase the participation, enjoyment and skill base of our future cricketers. The Club was again supported by our friends at the Tradies and we thank them for their continued support. Hope everyone enjoys their winter activities and look forward to seeing you back with St Pats in the 2017/2018 season. Page 3 of 71 TREASURER REPORT 2016 / 2017 St. Patrick’s Cricket Club remains in a strong financial position after the 2016-17 season with a season profit of around $4,500.00, this is a good result considering the double up (2 years outlay) on some of our expenses. (see below) Around $500.00 (Presentation Day expenses) still to be paid for this financial year, Premiership Caps (approx. $2,00.00) & Annual reports (approx. $1,800.00) will come into next years expenses as usual. Both income & expenditure are down this season due to a team decrease (seniors) with clothing sales costs also stabilized.

Mitchell has been hard toiling energetic player with a never give up attitude which he shares with all he’s teammates. He is has been great clubman over the past 9 seasons with St Patricks Cricket club and a privilege to coach. Mitchell has played at representative level with Sutherland for 3 seasons and was selected in the Watson Shield for the 2016/17 season. He has amassed 83 Wickets for the club from 456 overs putting him in the top ten wicket takers for the St Patricks club. This season Mitchell took 12 wickets at 17.00 despite playing a majority of the season with back complaints. Mitchell has also demonstrated an ability to swing the bat in the lower order and showed that with a few lusty late innings cameo’s. Mitchell amassed 497 runs for the club over he’s 9 seasons. Mitchell has a training and playing work ethic that is second to none, he is a courteous and honest young man who is a worthy recipient of the 2016/2017 St Patricks Cricketer of the year. Martin Mood Page 7 of 71 Junior Cricketer of the Year - Richard Nolan Richard Nolan commenced playing for St Pats in the 2010/11 season in the under 8’s. Since then he has played A grade in each season in the under 10’s, under 12’s and under 14’s. He was in the premiership winning 12A team of 2013/14, and played in the final in the 10A’s in 2011/12 and 2012/13, the final of the 12A’s in 2014/15, and the final of the 14A’s in 2015/16. Not a great winning strike rate in finals but at least we got there! Richard is a very talented all round cricketer. He has consistently opened the batting each season, taking on the new ball and the best bowlers in the competition week in, week out. He has always had a very good technique, great levels of concentration and puts a high price on his wicket. His stroke play has developed really well in recent years as he got a bit bigger and stronger, and his is a prize wicket for any opposition team. He has now scored 1,226 runs in his career to date for St Pats, all of them in A grade apart from 75 runs in his first season in the under 8’s. Richard has also been a very good leg spin bowler with great control and variety. In the under 10’s and 12’s he was unplayable at times with the bounce and spin. As the batsman have now started to physically get bigger and the bounce from spinners is less of a factor, he has continued to improve his bowling by having a flatter trajectory whilst still maintaining his control and spinning the Page 8 of 71 ball. He bowled some great spells against good players this year and in my view is still the best leg spinner in the competition. All up he has taken 71 wickets for the club. This year in the 14A’s was his best season with the bat. He started slowly with a duck in the first match of the season, but got going in round 2 with a score of 90 not out against Bangor. He finished the season with 362 runs, the 3rd most in the competition. If Richard missed out with the bat in any game we tended to struggle, and with some injuries to other players during the season there was a lot of responsibility on Richard’s shoulders to score runs and he handled that with ease.

    14 May: CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY V AJ WEBBE

    1 January: AUSTRALIA v ENGLAND (Second Test) (See scorecard at Cricket Archive, www.cricketarchive.co.uk/Archive/Scorecards/4/4921.html) Day 1 (report from Monday 3 January) Melbourne, Jan. 1 The second of the five test matches between Mr Stoddart’s team and All Australia began here to-day under the pleasantest conditions. Large at the start, the attendance went on increasing, till late in the afternoon there were 24,000 people on the ground. It was feared at first that owing to a small abscess in the throat Ranjitsinhji would have to stand out of the England eleven. However, after consulting a doctor, he found himself able to play, so Stoddart made way for him. The other player left out was Board. With Stoddart away Maclaren captained the side. Trott won the toss, and such a fine start was made by Australia that at the end of the day 283 runs had been scored for the loss of only three wickets. McLeod and Darling opened the innings to the bowling of Richardson and Hirst. The early batting was slow and marked by great caution. Richardson bowled four maiden overs in succession and the fielding was superb. With the total at 17, Briggs went on in place of Richardson, off whom only one run had been made. Darling scored eight in Briggs’s first over, and then, at 25, Richardson bowled at Hirst’s end. Darling did nearly all the hitting, getting 23 runs out of the first 27. As the game proceeded, the play became freer in character, Darling’s cutting being very clean and neat.

    Women's Cricket, Pioneers and Unsung Heroes

    Women’s Cricket, Pioneers and Unsung Heroes The important contribution made to women’s cricket by former students of Dartford College of Physical Education © The Ӧsterberg Collection Jane Claydon 2021 Unsung Heroes A great deal of publicity has been given to women’s cricket in the last decade and yet, some modern authors, in their histories of the game, have not included the names of many talented international cricketers with links to Dartford. Perhaps this is because the authors were not taught by members of staff trained at a Specialist College of Physical Education and are unaware of the heritage of Dartford, Bedford, Chelsea, Dunfermline and other later foundations. As a result, they have missed out on a rich history of women cricketers and administrators. I am sure Mary Duggan would be surprised to find that her lengthy and significant career is not highlighted in one recent publication. I have attempted to redress the balance and introduce the reader to many other players who trained at Dartford College. They may not be household names, but during their careers they influenced the development of the game for women and the outcome of many significant matches. Information about the history of women’s cricket is easy to find. Several books of interest have been published in the last half century. Perhaps, Nancy Joy’s Maiden Over, published in 1950, is overlooked by younger researchers, but it is a source of interesting details about the 1948/49 tour to Australia and New Zealand in which the author participated. The Cricket Archive can provide details of the performance of all England women cricketers, the WCA year books are available to view online and many of the players feature on the pages of Wikipedia.

E-mail : [email protected] Distinguishing Incentive from Selection Effects in Auction-Determined Contracts ∗ Laurent Lamy† Manasa Patnam ‡ Michael Visser§ September 20, 2019 Abstract This paper develops a novel approach to estimate how contract and principal-agent characteristics influence an ex-post performance outcome when the matching between agents and principals derives from an auction process. We propose a control-function ap- proach to account for the endogeneity of contracts and matching. This consists of, first, estimating the primitives of an interdependent values auction model - which is shown to be non-parametrically identified from the bidding data - second, constructing control func- tions based on the distribution of the unobserved private signals conditional on the auction outcome. A Monte Carlo study shows that our augmented outcome equation corrects well of the endogeneity biases, even in small samples. We apply our methodology to a labor market application: we estimate the effect of sports players’ auction-determined wages on their individual performance.

    THE PETERITE Vol

    THE PETERITE Vol. LXIII OCTOBER, 1972 No. 387 EDITORIAL We are told by Jean Gimpel, author of 'The Cathedral Builders', that by the sixteenth century 'the builders were no longer those of the great epoch, that the people no longer had the faith which had motivated men during the rise of Christianity'. It took nearly two hundred and fifty years of 'the great epoch' for the present York Minster to be completed, and it was rededicated on 3rd July, 1472. In the five hundred years that have passed since that rededica- tion, what has happened to 'the faith which had motivated men'? There is a simple story told by Bernard Feilden, writing about the restoration of York Minster in the new book 'The noble city of York'. He recalls how he took the late Earl of Scarbrough, the High Steward of the Minster, 'up circular staircases and along galleries without much handrailing' to see for himself the extent of the Minster's troubles in January, 1967. Then he tells us: 'When Lord Scarbrough had seen enough we returned to the Deanery, and after getting clean from this dirty expedition, and while waiting for a cup of tea, Lord Scarbrough turned to me and said, "What would it cost to restore the Minster?" 1 replied that it was difficult to give a firm estimate because there were so many doubtful factors, but that I thought it would cost between £1.67 and £2.5 million. He looked me in the eye for what seemed like a minute and then simply said, "It can be done".' It has been done.

We had some great feedback from the first edition at the start of the season, so great to know that you enjoyed it. We plan to produce the newsletter four times throughout the year, so do let us know if there’s anything specific you’d like to see in here in the fu- NICKY ISON - FIRST XI CAPTAIN ture, or indeed if you’d like to become a contributor. For this mid-season edition, we are also producing some physical copies so keep your eyes out for those! As you can read about in here, it’s been a hectic social calendar so far this season helped by England’s success in the World Cup. There’s certainly been lots happening and the best thing for me is that we’ve had a much wider range of our members all getting more involved in the various events. There’s nothing better than seeing the clubhouse being well used and enjoyed by so many people, and my thanks go to all of those who have worked hard to make these events happen. On the playing side, there’s everything to play for in the second half of the season at both ends of the table! There’s a great summary of the story so far for all of our league teams, and let’s hope we can get some more wins under our belt in the coming weeks.

    An Analysis of Visual Discriminatory Skill of Baseball Players During the First 200 Milliseconds of a Pitch

    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Randy Hyllegard for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Education presented on September 18. 1987. Title: An Analysis of Visual Discriminatory Skill of Baseball Players during the First 200 Milliseconds of a Pitch. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: Dr. Michael Maksud The primary goal of the study was to determine if and howbaseball players discriminate the rotational direction of an approaching pitch during the first 200 milliseconds of the flight of the ball.In addition, college-level baseball coaches were surveyed to assess the level of agreement between coaches relative to what are the most useful cues in batting. Pitches thrown in six professional baseball games were also analyzed to determine the frequency of different types of pitches, and to measure how successful professional batters are in hitting the ball. Sixty subjects viewed film of pitches and recorded whether the pitch was thrown with overspin or underspin. The independent variables were direction of rotation, viewing time, seam type, and pitching agent. Thirty college-level baseball coaches were surveyed to establish their opinion'son the importanceof the different perceptual cues available to a batter in making a swing decision. First, the coaches rated the usefulness of cues in pitch identification during the early flight of the ball. Second, they rated which cues are most useful in making a swing decision. Finally, they rated the relative importance of perceptual versus conceptual cues in batting. The following results were noted:

The first is in relation to the wonderful architecture on our island site. The ongoing programme of refurbishing the original Butterfield buildings has continued and for Old Members who return to the College after a period of time I imagine that one of the most striking revelations is the area around the porter’s lodge, with the recently cleaned brickwork on Parks Road, the tunnel restored so that its creator’s intentions can be properly understood and the lodge itself made much more attractive to students and visitors alike. Such is the impact of the brickwork that at Encaenia the Orator, referring to a number of building projects across Oxford, mentioned Keble with the observation that, as in a number of other places, the scaffolding had come down, in Keble’s case to reveal “Keble - like the old London buses always redder than one had remembered”.
  • Annual 2018 / 2019 Report

    Annual 2018 / 2019 Report

    ANNUAL 2018 / 2019 REPORT Page 1 of 55 PRESIDENT’S REPORT Season 2018/2019 saw St Pats field 4 Master Blaster teams, 13 junior teams and 10 senior teams. Collectively this represents nearly 450 players in the Club. There were further changes to both junior and seniors’ formats. One would say with mixed results. The Club will continue to work with both Associations to ensure that the game remains appealing to all ages and skill level. Whilst each junior team had a coach and manager this season and each senior team had a manager, the Club desperately needs more people to join the committee to assist with either the Master Blaster, Juniors or Seniors programs. We also want to explore the feasibility of improving the net facility with steps from the carpark and general improvement to seating and access. However, we need people to assist in getting quotes, grants etc. The Club was again supported by our friends at the Tradies and we thank them for their continued support. Adam Young Hope everyone enjoys their winter activities and look forward to seeing you back with St Pats in the 2019/2020 season. Page 2 of 55 TREASURER REPORT 2018 / 2019 St. Patrick’s Cricket Club remains in a strong financial position after the 2018-19 season with a season profit of just under $9,000.00, this is a very good result with increases in registration & shirt sale on the Income side, on expenditure side, Association fees increased but we didn’t buy any shirts (saving of $9,900.00 on previous year) Unfortunately we have no “Premiership Team expenses” this year, so the only outstanding amounts that will come into next years expenses are AGM & Annual report expenses.
