Presidents Report 2019 -20
I was honoured to be President of CHDCA in season 2019/20. Season 2019/20 was a very interrupted season for the CHDCA. Unprecedented challenges saw several early season matches cancelled as a result of local bushfires, mid to late season matches abandoned due to rain and the nightmare that is COVID-19. Unfortunately grand final matches were unable to be played as a result of Covid, but congratulations to those sides that were named premiers. Congratulations to Sawtell Cricket Club on being named CHDCA club champions after yet another strong season across all grades, junior and senior. Congratulations to all the individual players who received honours for their efforts this season.
Early in the season several matches had to be called off due to several large bushfires in the area which made play a potential health risk, much to the disappointment of several people in the cricket community. As expected in Coffs Harbour a number of matches were also called off due to seasonal bad weather. This, culminated with the bushfire scenario created a largely shortened regular season The covid crisis hit at finals time and resulted in grand finals needing to be cancelled as well as the 2019/20 presentation. Covid will continue to be a challenge in the upcoming season.
2-
On a positive note, working with Cricket NSW, CHDCA was able to fund several infrastructure projects that will benefit the whole cricket community in the district for many years to come. For me on a personal level, I had to face several family related challenges during the cricket season. The impact this has had means I will not be seeking re-election as President of CHDCA for season 2020/21.
It has been a privilege working with many great organisations and individuals throughout my time as President. I would like to thank all those who made my time as enjoyable as it was.
Kind Regards
Mark Don President

AN UNSUNG ASPECT OF THE GREAT GAME

AN UNSUNG ASPECT OF THE GREAT GAME with Phil Crofts
One of the joys of cricket is the all-important aspect that it is a team game. There is the one-on- one contest at each delivery, but that just blends into the mesh of the overall game, the ups and downs as the match progresses, and the build-up of tension as it heads towards a result.
Of course, cricket’s history is littered with that oft-maligned result, ‘a draw’, where neither side wins or loses. It has indeed been the target of much invective for allowing that situation; however, I like to think that it’s just another nuanced situation that cricket can cater for, in contrast to some of the sports of North American background that can only cope with a winner or loser. But maybe that’s just me.
Of course, beyond the ‘verdant green’ of the cricket oval, there are all the off-field dramas. There’s the selection meetings (think ‘fireworks’), the training sessions, both within and without nets; organising the umpies if possible, and such. Then of course there are the vital details of who is in charge of preparing afternoon tea: the catering officer. Perhaps now not so prominent as in days gone by, when the game was played only by men and boys, and the catering officer duties were given over to ‘the ladies’.
Another role that is not so prominent these days is the ‘gear steward’. There was a time, ah so long ago, when all the necessary gear was piled at random into the team kit bag, and one fellow’s job was to ensure a. it was all there, and b. get it to the ground each week. Ever so slowly, players started to have their ‘own’ gear: it started with ‘your’ bat, and from there, each player’s kit bag became bigger, and the team kit bag became smaller; perhaps, in fact, not required at all. It’s not for nothing that the word ‘coffin’ is used to describe the kit-trailers used by today’s first-class players.
And that brings me to another aspect of cricket that perhaps does not require as much attention as those ‘olden’ days. You see, these days at a local level, it is just assumed that once each player knows where he or she is playing next ‘Saturdee’ or ‘Sundee’, they’ll get themselves to the ground under their own steam. Oh, they might phone a friend for a lift (it will be the mobile phone, not landline) or send an email or text or Message to that friend, but they organised it themselves. If the match is further away, say inter-district or similar, and the travel is more significant, there may be an effort to car-pool. But the travel is still somewhat straight- forward.
Pictured at right: is a sample of modern day cars that are now the mode of travel for todays cricketers. What a difference this means to travel times to cricket compared to earlier days of cricket in the Coffs Harbour areas
But it most certainly was not always so. Just as all aspects of Australian society have seen a development in modes of transport in the last 100+ years, Coffs Harbour cricket has been a reflection of that development.
This is not the forum to examine every year, or indeed every decade. All we can do is look at -2- This is not the forum to examine every year, or indeed every decade. All we can do is look at some of the highlights from the records, the research results, and while we still can, the memories of the people who lived through some of those developments.
From the Coffs Harbour Advocate of March 1919 comes the report of the ‘Orara Cricketers on tour’. A party of 14 met at 8.30am at Mr W.H. Seccombe’s place, and rode their horses for a game at Brooklana.
They were on a road for half a mile, and then it was literally up through continuous scrub. The tracks worn by the timber cutters were of mixed benefit, and there were times when the riders had to dismount: ‘it takes something to make the average Australian get off and walk’. Imagine today riding horseback to cricket through Once on top of the range, ‘the track was like a the bush from Orara to Brooklana & back home tunnel through the forest’, although sometimes for a day of cricket. ‘there was no track at all that I could see, only a mark on a trunk here and there’. Finally, the horses ‘enjoyed a gallop for the last couple of miles, and the match began about 11.’
Highlights of the day were an excellent luncheon, and also excellent accommodation (no portable gazebos in those days), and in fact, our reporter was not worried about the result, because ‘who cares whether we won or lost? We….can promise them a good game when they come to Orara.’ Finally, ‘a little speech from each captain’, a cheer from each side to each other, and the Orara boys ‘started on the home track’.
In fact, they ‘struck a different route’, and ‘although the rain poured down, there was many a call and shout and song, that shortened the return journey considerably.’ Back at the Dairyville Post Office about 6pm, to then wend their ‘several ways homeward – wet and tired, but happy!’
That rain obviously became worse, because a week later, a scheduled match between Upper Orara and Coramba was threatened by flood damage. This time, our correspondent (‘Leg Stump’) had to go to Coramba, but his mention of ‘a pleasant drive of a dozen miles to Coramba’ does not specify the transport. Whatever it was, he had problems avoiding a few washouts along the road. However, it was the Coramba Bridge that impressed him: not only had it had ‘withstood the mighty rush of water’, but was able to hold fast against ‘a big tree trunk with an accumulation of driftwood’. The bridge was ‘not new by many years, and at least annually has to bear a flood, but (I) doubt if it has been tested so much before.’
Despite the recent rain, the ground was in excellent condition: ‘as clean as the Sydney Cricket Ground. ……… If we could not field well on this ground we could not field at all.’ The umpire was noted as a recently ‘returned man, welcome home Vic.’ Sadly, our correspondent failed to trouble the scorer, despite being given 2 trial balls: when you are batting, ‘Click is not nearly such a nice sound as bang. My bails and stumps had parted company.’ Orara went on to win by a dozen runs.
Orara Recreation Ground. The home side won comfortably, led by George Stanlan’s 57 (including 7 boundaries and 4 sixers). But looking at the match more than 100 years later, it is noticeable that -3- And just to finish with 1919, on Easter Monday there was a social match to support the Upper Orara Red Cross Society. A combined Jetty and Coffs Harbour team faced Upper Orara at the Upper Orara Recreation Ground. The home side won comfortably, led by George Stanlan’s 57 (including 7 boundaries and 4 sixers). But looking at the match more than 100 years later, it is noticeable that there were ‘quite 300’ people ‘present from Coffs, Karangi, Coramba and all Orara.’
And at last, a mention of the ‘dread disease’ (Spanish flu), ‘which is filling our towns with anxiety and bereavement…. (it) has so far been defeated in our district. We still can meet for social gatherings and sport.’
The best description however of travelling to cricket in those far-off days comes from a letter written in 1999 by Mrs Hazel Lucas (nee Secomb)), daughter of Lewin and Enid Secomb. Lew won the batting average award in 1932, when Hazel was a bonnie lass of just 13; her memories in 1999 were crystal-clear.
‘I can see a cricketer friend driving down the road in his horse and sulky to pick up dad,’ both men fully dressed in cricket whites, and dad’s parting words would be, ‘Get the cows in early Hazel.’ They ‘would get home at dark or after dark, or earlier if the match’ was at Orara. Milking twice a day, lots of other jobs on the farm for the kids (Hazel was one of 8 children).
The cricketers’ wives of course were
vital ‘to provide afternoon tea for which
they had a good name as cooks. All
visiting cricketers enjoyed that’.
Hazel’s letter was written at the time
that she was able to present Lew’s
medal (from his 1932 award) to the
CHDCA Historical Committee. When you
next look in that cabinet, you might get
a vision of 2 men in a horse and sulky,
on their way to cricket!
Off to cricket in the 1930s in a horse and sulky. Often having to travel from e.g. Sawtell to Glenreagh for cricket .
Jump forward now to the 1950s. Australia is still in post-war recovery, and Coffs Harbour produces around 95% of Australian bananas. The vehicle of choice for the banana-grower was a Willys Jeep, the legendary Ford product that played a crucial role in WWII. Its successes in that war made it perfect for the hills around Coffs Harbour, and in fact, during the 60’s and 70’s, Coffs was known as the 4WD capital of Australia. -4- So it’s no surprise to see Henry Ellem and Lionel Fowler, 2 well-performed cricketers, in that iconic photograph.
Pictured at right LtoR: Henry Ellem & Lionel Fowler
In the 60’s and 70’s, bus travel played an important role for matches involving longer distances. For CH teams, travelling to say Grafton or Maclean, Russ Lamberth’s school-bus was part of the day. Russ’s school run brought the children from Orara and surrounds into town, but on Sundays in summer, there would be 3 or 4 teams on board for the inter-distict competition. And it also included spectators. Don Tom and Laddie Hacking, 2 names etched in local cricket folklore, were generally on board. They would also join the cricketers for lunch at Grafton Services Club, although sometimes were not always back at the afternoon session of play on time. They would also adjourn to the club after the game with the cricketers.
There is also the story of Don and Laddie, actually driving to Grafton by car on this occasion, but on the return trip, had to pull up at Corindi to enjoy the remains of the standard fare ‘cooked chook’. The story was that they didn’t want to see it go to waste……. Good times.
And for determination in travel, it’s hard to go past the story of Arch Kay taking a team for a social game at Ulong. (Yes, ‘that’ Arch Kay, the one-armed umpire.) The Ulong cricket fraternity was crying out for a match, so Arch and a select band struggled to drive by car through the fog (referred to as an “Eastern Dorrigo special’) to Ulong. Only to have no play possible at all, as the fog refused to lift all day.
So, there you have it: some of the quirks and oddities of travelling to cricket over the years. It’s all ancient history now, but all part of cricket’s never-ending fables. Who knows what the travel will be like in another 100 years? And what will that generation think of how it all happened in 2020?

CHDJCA – A BRIEF HISTORY
Junior cricket competitions commenced in Coffs Harbour during the 1960's and the competitions were under the control of the Coffs Harbour District Cricket Association through until the early 1970's when we believe that the junior competition lapsed for a period of time.
The Coffs Harbour District Junior Cricket Association was formed during the 1975-76 season, under the direction of Rod & Lyn Harvey. Lyn Harvey was a teacher at Narranga Primary School.
A primary schools competition was conducted in the under 12's age division and a secondary schools competition was also conducted for the under 14’s age division.
The junior cricket competitions continued to be conducted under the control of the schools, and run in line with the school calendar year until 1994. Around this time there was a move to align the running of junior cricket with the senior cricket clubs rather than being aligned with the schools.
The junior cricket seasons were aligned with the senior summer season from 1995-96 onwards, and the clubs that became involved with fostering junior cricket were Sawtell, Northern Districts, Diggers Ex-Services, Nana Glen, West Coffs and Plantation Colts.
At the joint Annual General Meetings of the CHDCA and the CHDJCA, held on the 31st July, 2019 it was resolved that the junior association would fold and come under the control of the senior body once again.

Once again the Coffs Golden Oldies have had a busy season. Fortunately there were plenty of games on offer before the COVID restrictions led to an early end to the season with representative games against Queensland having to be abandoned. The club continues to grow as players from the local grade competition look to continue their enjoyment of the game by participating in Over 60’s and Over 70’s cricket. The membership has now extended to more than 20 players and weekly practice at the Leisure Park nets draws quite a crowd. Games were played against teams from Armidale, Tamworth, Quirindi, Lismore, Mid North Coast and Newcastle. The chance to play on some great grounds and to meet up with friends from all of these centres ensures that all club members are keen to participate. The club was led by an enthusiastic committee with Rob Lidbetter at the helm.
One of the highlights of the season was the team’s participation in the 1st Division NSW Veterans Cricket Championships held in Maitland. Four 40 over a side games over five days certainly was a test of the fitness of our group. The competition did not start as well as we had hoped with a loss to the strong Southern Highlands team. A great win on day two against Tamworth led to some hope of making the final. Unfortunately the Sydney side we met in the third fixture proved too strong for us as we battled with some injuries and our final hopes were dashed. A thrilling last over win against Mid North Coast on the final day had the team finish in the top four of the competition which was a pleasing performance.
AT LEFT: JOHN LEAHY (COFFS HARBOUR) WITH THE TOSS AGAINST SOUTHERN HIGHLANDS IN MAITLAND. - 1st Division NSW Veterans Championships -2- Quite a few Coffs players represented NSW at the Australian Championships in Adelaide in November. Eric Higgins, Bruce Mackie, Graham Doust, Terry Herbert, Laurie Newland, John Leahy, Terry Crossland and Bruce Lumb were our representatives in the State teams and all performed well at the championships. Eric Higgins’ continued selection in the Australian Over 60’s side came as no surprise and his participation in international tours to England and New Zealand as well as home fixtures in the Australian team playing against England is evidence of his outstanding talent. In late November four players were selected to play in regional teams against the visiting England Over 60’s touring team. Bruce Mackie travelled to the Central Coast to play in the team selected for that game and Eric Higgins, Terry Herbert and Graham Doust travelled to Tamworth to play a memorable game under lights.
Above: ERIC HIGGINS selected in Australian Over 60s side Left: ERIC HIGGINS & JOHN LEAHY In Tamworth
Several of our players played in the NSW Over 70’s State Championships held in Port Macquarie in February. John Lambert opened the bowling for Mid North Coast and Kevin Walker and Graham Doust were guest under age players for that team.
As Veteran’s cricket continues to expand some tournaments are being organised differently. There are now Over 65 mini tournaments being held to facilitate the ageing process. The big ticket item is the emergence of Over 50’s as a lead into Over 60’s and this gives players the opportunity to continue their cricket seamlessly. I would hope that the Coffs Cricket Association look carefully at this opportunity in its future planning.
Unfortunately the season ended all too soon with fixtures having to be cancelled. Several players were booked to play in the Golden Oldies Tournament in Harrogate, Yorkshire and Graham Doust was to be part of the NSW Over 60’s New Zealand tour. Both of these events were cancelled.
All players nearing that over sixty milestone are invited to join with us and enjoy the friendship and fraternity that Veteran’s Cricket offers. We train ALL YEAR on Wednesday afternoons at the Leisure Park nets and all are welcome. For those who are really enthusiastic quite a few of us train at the same venue on Fridays. Sessions start at 1.00pm. Anyone interested in playing veteran’s cricket can contact Graham Doust on 6658 1327 or 0414 711 951.
