“…oh how I want to be at Nettleton…” 40 years of STC 1967 – 2007 Saturday 17th February 2007 Dear Club Member, F On behalf of President Stephen Hoy and the Committee of the STC South Camberwell Cricket Club, it is my great pleasure to table the official 40th Anniversary Club History. This document contains a full history of the Club’s progression from a O small parish based organisation, to its current position as one of the largest clubs in the Eastern Cricket Association. In 40 years, we have had over 600 senior players proudly represent STC, wearing the trademark red cap. R Sincere thanks to Jack Krohn for his fastidious record keeping, and assistance in preparing this document for publication. To “editor in chief”, Paul Zennaro, I also extend my appreciation for hours of proofreading and formatting to enable us to present this professional document to you today. T 40 years old, and stronger than we have ever been….oh, how I want to be at Nettleton.

That remark was the beginning of STC South Camberwell Cricket Club. Alan Burt was overseas at the time. On his return, he and Alan Yarwood enlisted the help of Joe Cain and the curate of the local Catholic church of St Cecilia's, Fr John O'Callaghan, in fielding a team from the parish. An approach was made to Rev Wittingslow of the local St Mary's Church of England to sponsor the club to be known as St Cecilia's Cricket Club into the Eastern Suburban Churches Cricket Association. That Association however refused to accept the club into their competition as at that time Catholic clubs were not allowed to enter. An application was then made to Mr Alf Dunstan, the President of the Eastern Suburbs Cricket Association (ESCA), for admission into their competition. ESCA advised that we would be accepted into the Association but only in the lowest grade of matting - C Grade. This small group then decided that the club must be given a name. It was decided to retain the Church connection at St Cecilia's but not to use the church name as we were not entering a Churches competition. To this end the name STC South Camberwell was chosen. Through the secretary of the Nettleton Park Committee of Management, Mr Jack McGuiness (also a parishioner at St Cecilia's), the group was able to obtain the shared use of a pitch at Nettleton Park.
