Wakehurst Redbacks Annual Report 2017/2018 ANNUAL REPORT WAKEHURST REDBACKS CRICKET CLUB INCORPORATED Your committee has much pleasure in submitting for your consideration and approval the Annual Report for the 2017/2018 season. President: David Nimmo Secretary: Deanne Hutt Treasurer: Jenny Pittar WAKEHURST REDBACKS CRICKET CLUB INCORPORATED (ABN: 71 887 994 585) Annual Report For the year ended 30 April 2018 This is the 37th Annual Report of the Wakehurst Redbacks Cricket Club Incorporated. We are a Cricket Club based on Sydney's Northern Beaches playing in the Manly Warringah Cricket Association (Seniors) and the Manly Warringah Junior Cricket Association (Juniors). We have a proud history and over 500 players across in2CRICKET, T20 Blast, Sixers Girls Cricket League (SGCL), Juniors (Under 9 to Under 18) and Seniors. The Preamble – The Spirit of Cricket Taken from the MCC’s Laws of Cricket 2000 Code 4th Edition - 2010 Cricket is a game that owes much of its unique appeal to the fact that it should be played not only within its Laws but also within the Spirit of the Game. Any action which is seen to abuse this spirit causes injury to the game itself. The major responsibility for ensuring the spirit of fair play rests with the captains. 1. There are two Laws which place the responsibility for the team's conduct firmly on the cap- tain. Responsibility of captains The captains are responsible at all times for ensuring that play is conducted within the Spirit of the Game as well as within the Laws. Player's conduct In the event of a player failing to comply with instructions by an umpire, or criticising by word or action the decisions of an umpire, or showing dissent, or generally behaving in a manner which might bring the game into disrepute, the umpire concerned shall in the first place report the matter to the other umpire and to the player's captain, and instruct the latter to take action. 2. Fair and unfair play According to the Laws the umpires are the sole judges of fair and unfair play. The umpires may intervene at any time and it is the responsibility of the captain to take action where required. 3. The umpires are authorised to intervene in cases of: Time wasting Damaging the pitch Dangerous or unfair bowling Tampering with the ball Any other action that they consider to be unfair 4. The Spirit of the Game involves RESPECT for: Your opponents Your own captain and team The role of the umpires The game and its traditional values 5. It is against the Spirit of the Game: To dispute an umpire's decision by word, action or gesture To direct abusive language towards an opponent or umpire To indulge in cheating or any sharp practice, for instance: a) to appeal knowing that the batsman is not out b) to advance towards an umpire in an aggressive manner when appealing c) to seek to distract an opponent either verbally or by harassment with persistent clapping or unnecessary noise under the guise of enthusiasm and motivation of one's own side 6. Violence There is no place for any act of violence on the field of play. 7. Players Captains and umpires together set the tone for the conduct of a cricket match. Every player is ex- pected to make an important contribution to this.

  • NEWSLETTER No. 357 – NOVEMBER 2016
    THE HAMPSHIRE CRICKET SOCIETY Patrons: John Woodcock Shaun Udal NEWSLETTER No. 357 – NOVEMBER 2016 ODE TO LEO, VIC AND JIMMY The shadows lengthen and the colours fade As our heroes slip away But those of us remaining Will remember yesterday Mike Arnold There can have been few months in Hampshire’s history in which three men who contributed so much to the County’s fortunes have died. Leo Harrison passed away on 12 October, and now Vic Cannings and Jimmy Gray have both died within hours of each other on 31 October. The three men played a total of 1070 first-class matches for Hampshire from 1939 to 1966. A tribute to Leo Harrison appeared in the October Newsletter. The achievements of those two other great servants are recorded below. VIC CANNINGS Vic Cannings died at the age of 97, and was the second oldest surviving Hampshire cricketer. John Manners is still with us aged 102. He will always be remembered as Derek Shackleton’s omnipresent opening partner during the 1950s. For a few years in the early part of that decade they literally were Hampshire’s bowling; in 1952, they bowled unchanged throughout the match against Kent at Southampton. They dismissed their opponents for just 32 and 91. That first innings total would have been fewer had not the Kent number eleven, Jack Martin, slogged Shack for two sixes. Victor Henry Douglas Cannings was born in the village of Bighton, near Alton on 3 April 1919. He served in the Palestine Police Force for seven years from the outbreak of WW2.

  • Cricket Report 2013 the 2013 Season Will Go Down in the History of Shrewsbury School Cricket As Probably the Most Remarkable
    Cricket Report 2013 The 2013 season will go down in the history of Shrewsbury School cricket as probably the most remarkable ever experienced by the school. To win a national title, the HMC Twenty20 is exceptional in itself, but then to share two other national championships (ECB/ESCA Under 15 Twenty20 and the School Sport Magazine Under 17) was a feat unprecedented in school cricket. In addition, the Under 14s won the county stage of the Lord’s Taverners Trophy and will go on to represent Shropshire on the national stage in 2014. In a season where the sun shone much more than in previous seasons, it was disappointing that both the Under 15 and Under 17 teams twice attempted to play their finals but were thwarted by the weather. With September rapidly coming to an end it was decided to share their trophies with Whitgift School and Portsmouth Grammar School respectively.
