The Council is a true memorial of the International Club of Great Britain which was formed in 1924. Since that time the IC movement has expanded world wide with International Clubs now numbering 38 nations. And the ideals that were formed then have not changed since that time. Players who have played internationally can form friendships for life and with programmes that enable clubs to engage socially and competitively it enhances cementing international relationships. Activities within their own clubs also keep the spirit of past achievements alive and it is very important that the history of our great game is not lost. It is hoped the young players of today carry on the tradition the members of all the ICs have worked so hard to maintain.“ Frank Sedgman, President of the IC Council, at his 80th birthday Virginia Wade: Vijay Armitraj: Michael Stich: “I have always had very fond memories of “The IC is a very special body that I am “I am happy that I am able to address you my experiences with the IC.

  • Undies and Arthur Marshall
    The All-Rounder: a memoir of Fremantle sportsman Arthur Marshall by Roger Underwood The champion sportsman who excels in several sporting disciplines is a well-known phenomenon. Don Bradman, for example, was also the South Australian squash champion and a scratch golfer; Test fast bowler Ray Lindwall also played first grade rugby league in NSW and was a top sprinter. Western Australians who were multi-disciplinary champions include Keith Slater, who played Test cricket and football, cricket and baseball for WA, Derek Chadwick who played football and cricket with distinction for WA, and Rick Charlesworth, an Olympic hockey player and also a State cricketer. Fremantle all-rounders of note include John Baguley, who was an Olympic long and triple-jumper, played rugby for WA and league football for East Fremantle, and Merv Cowan who was captain of the Fremantle A Grade cricket team and the East Fremantle League football team, a State water polo player and State breaststroke swimming champion. The phenomenon is easily understood. Champion sportsmen share key physical and mental attributes: they are naturally athletic, they have exceptional hand-eye coordination and lightning reflexes, are highly competitive, and they have that special inner strength known as “the will to win”. This is best demonstrated in the champion who ‘wins ugly’ – sporting lingo for the ability to dig deep and find a way to win even when injured or having an off-day. The champion who performs at the elite level in several disciplines is rarer today than in earlier eras. Modern sporting champions tend to specialise. They choose to become a full-time AFL footballer, a Test cricketer, or a swimmer or golfer, and they do this while still a teenager.
