Hornsby-Ku-Ring-Gai and Hills District Cricket Association Inc HORNSBY-KU-RING-GAI AND HILLS DISTRICT CRICKET ASSOCIATION INC. 21st annual fixture – Official Program Showcase of Emerging Local Cricket Talent Sunday, 16th September 2018 – Rosewood Oval, Barker College Captains – Oliver Jennings (West) and Alistair Weston (East) 2018-19 What is the Ross Turner Cup? The HK&HDCA Ross Turner Cup (RTC) was inaugurated in 1998-99 to promote an opportunity for the best of our U/15 players to appear in a ‘showcase’ game of high-level representative cricket. The idea developed from the work of the Northern Metropolitan Cricket Council (NMCC) in the 1990’s, which brought together representatives of grade, shires, district and local school cricket organisations to achieve mutual benefit by working in close collaboration. One of the objectives was to accelerate the ‘career paths’ of our outstanding young cricketers by the early identification of players with talent and commitment, in order to provide high level coaching and development opportunities for these players. It was hoped that many of these players would successfully progress through the HK&HDCA Shield junior representative teams; play AW Green Shield and Grade Cricket with Northern District CC; or A Grade within the HK&HDCA Senior Competition. An amazing 30 players have graduated from the RTC match to play First Grade cricket in Sydney. The RTC and Glenn Hourigan Cup (GHC) matches were the brainchild of Tom Richmond OAM, Patron and Life Member of HK&HDCA, who passed on the responsibility after 12 years to Bruce Wood, President of the Coaches’ Association (HKHDCCA) in 2010-11, who has maintained the fine tradition and introduced some new initiatives, including appointing impressive young RTC and GHC coaches; scheduling the main 50-over matches on adjacent ovals; and arranging preliminary GHC T20 matches. The NMCC recognised that cricket needs to be played in the true spirit of the game and enjoyed by all participants, in a competitive and healthy environment. The Council took proactive steps in conjunction with the local cricket bodies to achieve this objective. An emphasis on respect for the opposition, the umpires and the laws of the game became a feature of the annual RTC matches before the world’s governing body incorporated the spirit of cricket in the preamble to the MCC Laws of Cricket. Bruce Wood holds similar views on how cricket should be played and donated an impressive perpetual trophy in 2008-09 on behalf of the Umpires’ Association entitled ‘HKHDCUA Spirit of Cricket Award for representative cricket’ in order to promote excellent sportsmanship by our cricketers. The Cup is named in honour of Ross Turner (pictured above), one of our Association’s most famous products. As a young player, Ross was a brilliant all-rounder who bowled leg-spin, batted beautifully (left-handed) and was without peer in the field. He played for Pennant Hills CC, HK&HDCA rep. teams and later became a specialist batsman and Northern District’s most successful captain, winning two First Grade premierships. Ross worked for Cricket NSW and Cricket Australia, pioneering development activities, before continuing his magnificent contribution to cricket by working for the International Cricket Council (ICC) in the development of cricket in overseas countries such as Bangladesh, China, Malaysia, Afghanistan and India. Ross currently heads up cricket at Newington College in Sydney and is the GPS Cricket Convenor. We are delighted that Ross can join us today and meet the players and coaches. It is important that HK&HDCA maintains close ties with its local grade club, Northern District CC at Waitara, as our Association is the main feeder of talented players to grade cricket. NDCC officials have attended every Ross Turner Cup match since its inception 21 years ago and they will be here again today. Significant steps have been taken over the years to improve the pathway from the HK&HDCA representative teams, particularly Watson, Weblin and Moore Shields, to ND’s U/16 Green Shield squad and lower grade teams. The Coaches’ Association’s popular junior cricket clinics at Mark Taylor Oval, Waitara, which are undertaken in the school holidays in partnership with Northern District CC, have further fostering the strong link with our local grade club. The Coaches’ Association’s Secretary, Josh Miller (Level 2 accredited), has been the NDCC AW Green Shield coach for the past 2 years. Today’s RTC (50 over) match brings together the leading U/15 and U/14 players in the district. The RTC match is being played at Rosewood Oval for the first time and we sincerely thank Barker College for this privilege. Thanks also to HK&HDCA sponsors, Kookaburra Sport (Cameron Eve) for supplying the match balls and Player of the Match award. I’m sure the players and spectators will enjoy today’s 21st annual RTC contest. Teams for 2018-19 contest The 2018-19 Ross Turner Cup match was another high standard contest between two strong teams, roughly representing the East and West sides of our Association. The players were mainly selected from the HK&HDCA 2018-19 Weblin Shield, Moore Shield and U/15 IDCA teams. The cover photo shows Oliver Jennings (West captain) and Alistair Weston (East captain) holding the historic Ross Turner Cup. The Coaches’ Association appointed two emerging young coaches to take charge of this year’s RTC teams – Aaron Crofts and Andrew Harvey. Experienced umpires, Bruce Wood and Simon Moore were the appointed RTC umpires. HK&HDCA sincerely thanks Steve Thomlinson from Barker College for providing access to Rosewood Oval to host a RTC match for the first time. Thanks also to Tom Nati for undertaking the photography duties covering the RTC match.

  • History of the New South Wales Cricket Umpires Association - 1913 to 1988
    History of the New South Wales Cricket Umpires Association - 1913 to 1988 Formation and Early Years The first recorded efforts to form an umpires' association were in 1904, but apparently that Association did not survive for much longer than a year. Twenty-four people attended a meeting in the NSW Cricket Association rooms on 7 September 1904. A constitution was drawn up by a committee and that constitution was adopted by a meeting on 16 September. The last minutes which we have recorded were for a meeting on 7 September 1905. Those minutes were signed by Charles Nicholls on 27 September, but there are no further records of meetings until a meeting of the Cricket Association executive committee was convened with umpires on Friday 15 August 1913. Sydney Smith Jr. a member of the executive committee chaired the meeting at which there were 42 umpires present. It was clear from the outset that the new Association was to be formed "under the control and authority of the New South Wales Cricket Association." How much under the control became apparent in the 1920s when there was a move to abolish the Umpires' Association. R (Dick) Callaway was appointed secretary pro tem, and a committee, comprising A (Alf) Jones, W Curran, WG French, JA Turnbull and J Laing, was appointed to draw up the constitution. The constitution was adopted on 28 August and office-bearers were elected. WH Mitchell was elected the first President. R Callaway and A Jones were elected Secretary and Treasurer respectively. It would seem that the draft constitution was an edited version of the Cricket Association's constitution.

Led by Dylan Ryan, a drummer/composer with feet firmly planted in both indie rock and jazz, the group features guitarist Timothy Young (David Sylvian, Reggie Watts, Wayne Horvitz) and Devin Hoff (Nels Cline Singers, Yoko Ono, Cibo Matto). Together on Circa, their second release on Cuneiform Records, the trio forge a wholly unique, emotionally-charged and stylistically omnivorous music that invokes elements of Rush, Fugazi, Fred Frith’s Massacre, James ‘Blood’ Ulmer, and more, and sonically ranges from fearlessly improvisational to tender; the abrasive to the understated. Indeed, this range of influences and openness to sonic possibilities is what initially drew Ryan to his bandmates. “I saw Tim Young play somewhat by chance in an old bar The Doors used to play in and I was so impressed that I wanted to be in a band with him immediately.

  • Thanet Poetry Journal Volume 1 May 2017
    Thanet Poetry Journal Volume 1 May 2017 FOREWORD I feel extremely honoured to be the Thanet Poetry Journal’s first editor. Firstly I would like to mention Connor Sansby and recognise all the hard work he has done to make this Journal happen. Without all his efforts this project would be dead in the water. I, of course, would like to thank everyone that has submitted their work to be published, the quality of poetry we received was nothing less than exemplary. The Thanet poetry scene has changed dramatically in the last couple of years with existing events evolving and growing and with new and exciting events being created too. We have tried to reflect this by including the work of poets have travelled to perform here time and time again, we owe you a big thank you for you continued support. All local poets have grown so much in my time performing but so many new poets have found the courage to share their work, which for me personally is something that continues to make me smile. Being a part of such an open and welcoming community makes me very proud. So without any further ado, I would like to declare the first of many Thanet Journals open and ready to read, share and enjoy. Stefan Gambrell Neanderthal Bard DAFT THINGS HAPPEN ON TRAINS I heard a woman say “I have never known anybody use so much toothpaste in one week”. I wasn’t sure how significant this claim was as she didn’t say for how many weeks she had been observing toothpaste usage.
