  • 2011-2012 CSA Annual Report and Financial Statement
    ANNUAL REPORT 2011/12 SHAPING TOMORROW We live in the most exciting era of sporting development. A time when full contact sport no longer holds centre stage. It is a passage of time when the art of sport is appreciated over the physicality of competition. Today, latent skills and blossoming talent have a place amongst our youth and the generations to come. It is now the subtle brilliance of deftness, the art of touch, mastery of stroke and pure strategic guile that has turned cricket into the sport of the future. Today cricket is the stage for mental agility and peak physical condition. It is purity of both mind and spirit that produces champions. The re-invention of cricket globally has rejuvenated a desire to master the ultimate game. A sense of camaraderie pursued by both men and women alike. It’s now a passion for gamesmanship, integrity, honesty and fair play. It is a game that can be embraced and played or supported by everyone. We can’t undo the past, but we can shape the future. We do what we do today in cricket, for what will happen TOMORROW.

The Coronavirus pandemic is, of course, dominating all our thoughts and has resulted in a shocking loss of life and huge disruption to all aspects of our lives. The Charity Sector has also been exceptionally badly hit but with your help, Lord’s Taverners Ireland will continue our good work and “give young people, particularly those with special needs, a sporting chance”. Just two short weeks ago, we were thrilled to deliver two vans to the Irish Wheelchair Association (IWA), and they are already whizzing around the country! These sport vehicles will support a range of sports including all IWA governing sports such as Wheelchair Basketball, Wheelchair Rugby, Para powerlifting and Para Athletics. The IWA transport as many sport wheelchairs as possible to all their sports events as sports wheelchairs are an expensive purchase for families and athletes and many individuals and newcomers to the sports don’t have their own. These vans will ensure the IWA team can provide wheelchairs at all games which will ensure inclusion for those who want to join, bringing a relief to families all across Ireland. Lord’s Taverners Ireland have proudly worked alongside the IWA for some time and are thrilled to have worked with them on this project.

  • THE HOLY GRAIL by Marcus Hook
    www.ovalworld-online.com/itsasurreything.htm VOLUME.28 ISSUE NUMBER.3 START OF THE SEASON 2015 EDITED BY MARCUS HOOK PLEASE NOTE THAT THE VIEWS EXPRESSED IN THIS NEWSLETTER ARE PURELY PERSONAL OPINIONS. ANY CORRESPONDENCE REGARDING 'OVAL WORLD' SHOULD BE ADDRESSED TO MARCUS HOOK AT FLAT 1, 67 BIRDHURST RISE, SOUTH CROYDON, SURREY, CR2 7EJ or E-MAIL [email protected] FIRST INNINGS - THE HOLY GRAIL by Marcus Hook Surrey may only be two matches into the new season, however it's already clear that climbing out of Division Two of the County Championship will be far from easy. The alliance of the number one batsman in the world, a resurgent Steven Davies and the new found consistency of Rory Burns, sees Surrey's batting in fine fettle. But whereas batsmen (especially those capable of saving a match) are worth their weight in gold in Division One, the best guarantee of promotion in Division Two is bowling sides out twice. Surrey have taken twenty wickets in just ten of their last 47 championship matches. The Essex game underlined that without an overseas fast bowler, experienced England qualified bowlers or both, the holy grail of 20 wickets will be hard to come by; and even harder on surfaces such as the one Glamorgan served up for Surrey's championship curtain-raiser. Given that you need to win a fair proportion of your matches to finish in the top two of the second division, playing on spicy 'result' pitches is a definite advantage. It's a difficult one because if Surrey see themselves challenging for the championship title in a few years time, taking cheap wickets on helpful surfaces will not prepare the likes of Tom Curran and Matt Dunn for bowling to the best batsmen in the country.

  • 7 Beyond the Nation? Colour and Class in South African Cricket
    7 Beyond the nation? Colour and class in South African cricket Ashwin Desai and Goolam Vahed …cricket does not reflect the age. It is the age... (James 1986: xi) The sToryline of souTh Africa cricket, like the broader narrative of the political defeat of apartheid, often gets told in beguilingly simple terms. Mandela met De Klerk. Graeme Pollock met Basil D’Oliveira.1 Apartheid had been stumped. Past and present merged. The covers were pulled off to reveal a level playing field. Another ‘small’ miracle. Critical voices of dissent were drowned out by the over-arching language of nation-building. Free from www.hsrcpress.ac.za download There was an iconic image following South Africa’s loss to England in the World Cup semi-final in 1992, before apartheid was officially dismantled: Steve Tshwete, the then head of the Sports Desk of the African National Congress (ANC), and Kepler Wessels the then captain, ‘in an emotional embrace after South Africa had bombed out of the semi-final against England on a ludicrously unjust rain rule’ (Alfred 2001: 158). For Luke Alfred, this moment illustrated that: …cricket in South Africa has allied itself to reform both without and within, and if the road to post-apartheid nirvana hasn’t always been easy, it is the road that cricket has chosen to take…The new team 176 Race to transform Book 16-2-10.indb 176 2/16/10 4:43:21 PM were part of the new post-apartheid nation, and rooting for that team, in some admittedly insignificant way, was to keep casting a vote for change, for a nation qualitatively different to that of the apartheid state.

    Article Beyond Apartheid: race, transformation and governance in KwaZulu-Natal cricket1 Goolam Vahed, Vishnu Padayachee, and Ashwin Desai Introduction In February 1990 South African President FW de Klerk unbanned the African National Congress (ANC), the South African Communist Party (SACP) and the Pan African Congress (PAC), allowing these organisations to return to ‘normal’ and active politics within the country after an absence of almost three decades. Nelson Mandela and FW de Klerk were the leading figures in the protracted and complicated negotiations of the early 1990s. South Africa’s first non-racial government was elected when the ANC won a landslide victory in April 1994. Perhaps not unexpectedly, given the balance of power between the apartheid state and the liberation movement, much was conceded during negotiations. Those who had pinned their hopes on a state-led, and interventionist economic recovery programme to address the inequities in power and wealth were to be disappointed. For by the end of the Cold War, a neo-liberal approach to economic management (also referred to as the Washington Consensus), with an emphasis on labour, trade and financial market liberalisation and the privatisation of state assets, was dominant. Programmes of re-distribution and redress in many sectors of South African society were placed on the back burner, as the new government attempted to demonstrate its commitment to this new global agenda. Despite the formation of non-racial sporting bodies in many codes at both national and provincial levels, sport (including cricket) in early post- apartheid South Africa appears to have displayed continuity rather than disjuncture with its racist past and this segment of society remained firmly in the grip of the old-white elite, for whom it was ‘business as usual’, but with the crucial added bonus of international respectability.

Al Duhail head coach Djamel Belmadi handed starts to a number of young- sters and one of them almost repaid his trust in the 21st minute. Abdullah al-Ahrak had a free header following Mourad Naji’s cross, but it was saved by Al Wahda keeper Mohamed al-Shamsi. The reply from the visitors came through star man Balazs Dzsudzsak, who produced two brilliant attempts in the space of one minute. First, the Hungarian sent a scorching eff ort at goal from 30 yards out, and then, he tried to curl one in directly from a cor- ner. However, Amine Lecomte was alert on both occasions to keep the ball out. The hosts were handed an advantage in the 39th minute when Al Wahda de- fender Salem Sultan was sent off after pulling down Youssef El Arabi who was through on goal.
