This group of youngsters is the pride of Esher CC and the coaches and age group managers, under Duncan Pauline, are doing a fabulous job.

Full details regarding the achievements of the Colts in 2013 are given elsewhere in this report.

  • One of the Enduring Legacies of British Colonialism Has Been the Institutionalization of British Sports in the Former Colonies
    One of the enduring legacies of British colonialism has been the institutionalization of British sports in the former colonies. This is nowhere better reflected tfisn in South Africa. The British garrison which took control of the Cape in 1806 during the Napoleonic wars, and the thousands of administrators and settlers who follornd, brought with them sports like horse racing, hunting and cricket, and soon infl-d the indigenous people into adopting them. By the end of the nineteenth century sport had become an important social institution and, fitting in with the structure and relations of Empire, South Africa was emerging as a major international sporting nation. Today, as the front-page headlines of the national nevspapers regularly indicate, sport occupies a central position in South African life and has become a major issue in the country's domestic and international relations. The development of sport in South Africa during the nineteenth century was closely linked to colonial politics and reflected in many ways in microcosm the developing South African colonial society and social structures. This could be seen on the institutional level in the organizational structures that developed, in the value systems that became entrenched in sport, in African responses to colonialism in the role of sport in the process of African class formation, and in the way the devgelopment of sport closely followed the pattern of historical development in South Africa. This chapter aims to demonstrate the close connections between sport, politics and social class in South Africa during the first century of British colonial rule by means of a case study outlfning the, as yet, largely unknown early history of African cricket in South Africa.

  • South African Cricket, Imperial Cricketers and Imperial Expansion, 1850–1910 Dean Allen
    The International Journal of the History of Sport Vol. 25, No. 4, March 2008, 443 – 471 South African Cricket, Imperial Cricketers and Imperial Expansion, 1850–1910 Dean Allen It has become an accepted fact, declared one South African observer in 1915, that where Englishmen are banded together, either by reason of duty, self-advancement or force of circumstances, there cricket will be played. [1] Indeed, throughout the British Empire cricket had followed on the heels of exploration, military might and political intervention in establishing a British code of civilization in foreign territories. This article will explore the early development of cricket in southern Africa and investigate its symbiotic link to British imperialism and colonialism. The origins of the game in South Africa will be examined as well as its development up to 1910 (the date of Union in South Africa) as a site of a burgeoning imperial brotherhood between Britain and its most contested colony. Introduction By the time the Anglo-Boer War had broken out in South Africa in 1899, the total global area under British control was the equivalent size of four Europes and had a population of around 400 million. [2] expansionist policies had accomplished control and influence throughout large areas of the modern world and now the focus was upon achieving the same effect within southern Africa. [3] The decision taken in 1807 to outlaw the slave trade had, after all, initiated a new era in long-standing relations with Africa. Thereafter, there began a campaign to the continent by promoting the values of commerce and Christianity.
