  • Cricket Memorabilia Society Postal Auction Closing at Noon 10
    CRICKET MEMORABILIA SOCIETY POSTAL AUCTION CLOSING AT NOON 10th JULY 2020 Conditions of Postal Sale The CMS reserves the right to refuse items which are damaged or unsuitable, or we have doubts about authenticity. Reserves can be placed on lots but must be agreed with the CMS. They should reflect realistic values/expectations and not be the “highest price” expected. The CMS will take 7% of the price realised, the vendor 93% which will normally be paid no later than 6 weeks after the auction. The CMS will undertake to advertise the memorabilia for auction on its website no later than 3 weeks prior to the closing date of the auction. Bids will only be accepted from CMS members. Postal bids must be in writing or e-mail by the closing date and time shown above. Generally, no item will be sold below 10% of the lower estimate without reference to the vendor.. Thus, an item with a £10-15 estimate can be sold for £9, but not £8, without approval. The incremental scale for the acceptance of bids is as follows: £2 increments up to £20, then £20/22/25/28/30 up to £50, then £5 increments to £100 and £10 increments above that. So, if there are two postal bids at £25 and £30, the item will go to the higher bidder at £28. Should there be two identical bids, the first received will win. Bids submitted between increments will be accepted, thus a £52 bid will not be rounded either up or down. Items will be sent to successful postal bidders the week after the auction and will be sent by the cheapest rate commensurate with the value and size of the item.

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.

  • LCS Meeting Thursday 3Rd March He Did
    LCS Meeting Thursday 3rd March Keith Bradshaw getting his notes ready for the meeting. 3rd March was due to be our final meeting of the winter, for this Keith Bradshaw the MCC Secretary and Chief Executive was the speaker. However owing to the problems we had at the December film night, your committee decided to have another attempt, at showing the Amazing Grace video, about the counties 1998 Championship winning season. This will be an open meeting, there will be no charge on the night for visitors, so please bring along your families and friends. Due to the running time of the video this meeting will start at 19:00. We are very pleased that Jack Birkenshaw, the counties senior coach during the golden 90’s will be at this meeting to answer questions and talk to us at the end of the film. This is a very fitting end to the winter, as Jack had been the very first speaker to address our society way back in November 2002. Keith Bradshaw played his cricket for Tasmania, during the 1980’s as a right hand bat; right arm medium with the ball. Keith told us his bowling average was higher that his batting average. He did play a second XI match for Sussex in 1986. He was appointed as the Secretary & Chief Executive by the Marylebone Cricket Club on 30 January 2006, succeeding the retiring Roger Knight OBE in October 2006. Roger Knight was a guest speaker at the society in 2008, so our links with Lords are still strong.

  • Biographies of Leading DHS Cricketers Jack Siedle
    Biographies of leading DHS cricketers Jack Siedle Ivan Julian "Jack" Siedle (11 January 1903 – 24 August 1982) was a South African cricketer who played in 18 Tests from 1927–28 to 1935–36. Family background and personal life Born on 11 January 1903 in Berea, Durban, Natal, Siedle was the youngest son of Otto Siedle, who was born in Woolwich, London of southern German stock and who trained as a watchmaker, subsequently emigrating to Durban where he became prominent in the shipping business and public affairs. Otto Siedle's wife Mary became deputy mayor of Durban. Jack's older brother Karl Siedle played first-class cricket for Natal before the First World War, in which he was killed; his sister Perla Siedle Gibson became a well-known singer and a symbol of her country during the Second World War. Siedle married Lesley Maud McPherson on 14 March 1931, with his cricket colleague Eric Dalton as best man. Their son, John Siedle (1932–2008), played a few first-class cricket matches for Natal and Western Province in the mid- 1950s. Early cricket career A right-hander who played for Natal for 15 seasons from 1922–23 to 1936–37, Jack Siedle bowled occasionally and kept wicket just as infrequently, but his chief value to South Africa was as an opening batsman. He had had no great success when he was picked, in the 1923–24 season, for the match that was the trial for the 1924 tour to England and the 56 he scored in his second innings there was his highest score to that point, as well as the top score for his side, but he was not picked for the tour.
