Never the Gentleman: Caste, Class and the Amateur Myth in English First Class Cricket, 1920s to the 1960s Abstract This article analyses the near-impossibility, for the duration of the amateur-professional divide, of cricketers born into working class families being admitted to amateur status, and, thus, to county captaincy, in the English first class game.

Steve Smith Perspective
STEVE SMITH’S LAST 18 MONTHS FROM HIS CLUB’S PERSPECTIVE The events of day 3 of the 3rd Test against South Africa in Cape Town on 24 March 2018 and the week that followed have been well documented. The club received many messages of support for Steve from members and followers, starting as soon as the punishments were handed down by Cricket Australia. On 31 March 2018, we posted a statement in support of Steve on our website and Facebook page. It finished “Steven is a strong character who we have no doubt will come back from this setback. We will support Steven in any way we can to ensure he returns to international cricket where he belongs.” On Facebook, we had around 3,500 likes for our post – far in excess of anything we had ever posted before. Typical of the comments we received was this very prophetic message from one of our Life Members: “Whilst I don’t agree with and share the astonishment of virtually all about what took place, I just want to say that Steve can bounce back from this. In many respects 12 months will give him time to gather himself, time to reflect on the enjoyment his family and friends will provide for him and allow him to heal. Not many in this world will be challenged by such an occurrence and I am sure that he will rise and provide Australians with a cricketer who we can rightly claim as one of the greatest. In the end it will be up to him and I’m looking forward to the day when I will see him again playing in the baggy green.

The Cricketers of Hampstead Hockey Club the First 20 Years; 1894 to 1914
THE CRICKETERS OF Hampstead and HAMPSTEAD Westminster Hockey Club HOCKEY CLUB The Men of the Eyre Arms and the first 20 years 1894 to 1914 The Cricketers of Hampstead Hockey Club The first 20 years; 1894 to 1914 The Cricketers of Hampstead Hockey Club The first 20 years; 1894 to 1914 Written and Produced for Hampstead and Westminster Hockey Club 2015 by Ian Smith The Cricketers of Hampstead Hockey Club The first 20 years; 1894 to 1914 Note This account is an attempt to throw light, predominantly from a cricketing perspective, on the circumstances in which Hampstead Hockey Club evolved and the key individuals who oversaw its transformation from a hockey-playing section of Hampstead Cricket Club into a leading hockey club in England within a little more than a decade. It is certainly not intended as a record of the first twenty years of the club, as that has been covered more skilfully by club historian, Colin Greenhalgh. More is known of some of these individuals than others. The contents may therefore appear out of balance. Much is taken up with the exploits of Andrew Stoddart but without apology, as his was a remarkable sporting record that has remained virtually unparalleled and was a life that, like several of his sporting contemporaries, ended in tragic circumstances. His story was itself recorded in part in his own albums of cuttings that were thought to be preparatory to a memoir. That never materialised but the contents were taken up by his biographer, David Frith, who felt compelled to write because “here was a wonderful cricketer who has been piteously neglected by historians”.

Can there ever have been a more enchanting name for a cricket ground? It might just as easily Mhave served as a title of a sonnet by Keats or the subject of a lyrical ballad by Wordsworth. But no, it is a cricket ground located in north Hampshire, donated by Lt Col John May, a member of a famous Basingstoke brewery family, to the local community for the purposes of sporting activity. Cricket has been played there since the mid-17th century and it is currently home to Basingstoke and North Hants Cricket Club. From 1966 to 2000, Hampshire played a couple of their home games there every year. A number of counties had similar festival weeks away from headquarters. Scarborough, Harrogate, Tunbridge Wells, Hastings, Eastbourne, Bournemouth, Bath, Cheltenham and Guildford were once as much of the first-class game as Lord’s, Old Trafford and Trent Bridge but have now sadly fallen out of favour as being uneconomic. Basingstoke Week was one such fixed point in the calendar, not greatly loved of the players, largely because of the cramped and spartan changing facilities, with a wooden floor that had more splinters than the gun deck of HMS Victory at the battle of Trafalgar.

Although I have lived in America for more than forty years, San Fernando still occupies a central place in my imagination and is one of the sources of the inspiration of whatever little I have achieved in my life.
