  • A Short History of St Martins Athletic & Harrier Club
    A Short History of St Martins Athletic & Harrier Club Foreword The year 2014 marked the 50th anniversary of the founding of the St Martins Athletic and Harrier Club. This brief history has been prepared to mark the occasion, for although St Martins no longer exists as such, it continues in the form of its successor, Port Hills Athletic, formed when St Martins merged with Cashmere Hillmorton in 2002. In preparing this history, it became evident that besides the names of those mentioned herein, the history of running and track and field in St Martins has been one of countless numbers of people taking up the sport and then enthusiastically giving of their time and energy. Many of those are still with the sport, even more have ‘moved on’ for various reasons, whether it be that their children grew up, they moved to somewhere else, they were no longer able to compete because of age or disability and so on. Be that as it may this history is therefore a salute to all those who have so generously given to the sport in so many ways over fifty years. Thank you to John Dumergue, Kevin Jago, Graham White, Les Woods who provided feedback on the preliminary version. ~ Stuart Payne August 2015 1 Contents Beginnings page 3 Club growth 6 Children’s athletics 19 Flagship and other events 22 Clubrooms 24 Club newsletter 27 Social activities 30 Governance 32 Umbrella club participation 35 Amalgamation 36 Some high-profile achievements 37 Conclusion 39 Appendices - A.

  • Guest Speaker Dominique Wilkins
    ATLANTA, GA GUEST SPEAKER DOMINIQUE WILKINS Vice President of Basketball and Special Advisor to the CEO The most celebrated player to ever put on a Hawks uniform and represented in front of State Farm Arena by an 18,500-pound bronze statue erected in March 2015. Hall-of-Famer Dominique Wilkins is the Hawks' Vice President of Basketball and Special Advisor to the CEO. Wilkins works in various management functions within the organization's basketball and business areas, and as the team’s analyst for the Hawks broadcasts on FOX Sports Southeast. Wilkins is responsible for advising the senior management team on basketball-related issues and working as a strong voice in the community. The 6-8 forward, who concluded his NBA career with 26,668 points, is the 13th all-time leading scorer in league history and his 24.8 career scoring average is also 13th on the all-time charts. Wilkins' 23,292 points with the Hawks are the franchise's best, and he ranks second in team history in steals (1,245), fourth in rebounds (6,119), seventh in blocked shots (588) and eighth in assists (2,321). One of the league's true marquee players, his outstanding contributions on the court were recognized by the organization in January 2001 when he became the third player in club history to have his uniform number (#21) retired, joining Hawks legends Bob Pettit and Lou Hudson. Familiar with area sports fans from his collegiate days at the University of Georgia, Wilkins entered the 1982 NBA Draft after his junior season with the Bulldogs.

  • John Drew's Winning
    JOHN DREW'S WINNING John started for the Hawks the next eight years and was an NBA All Star for two of those years. However, in his 3rd year John became involved with Cocaine. I asked John, "Why did you do it? Was it the pressure from the travel and all the games?" John snapped, "Shouldn't be any excuse! No matter what happens to you there is no excuse. I don't care if your mother and father both die, there IS NO EXCUSE!" "How easy is it to get John," I asked. "About as hard as buying a candy bar," he responded very seriously. "People look for an athlete, especially an NBA player. He wouldn't turn anybody in and the pushers know it," Drew further explained. "A gram of cocaine costs about $100 and I could go through that in 10 minutes. I snorted it at first and then the real problem came as I began to freebase," he vivid Iy described. "After freebasing 1'd smoke it. I'd do as much as I possibly could," Drew remorsefully noted. "John, how bad were things?" "Ugly! I had no control over my life. The only things I wanted to do was drugs. Drugs were # 1 in my life. I didn't care about anything else. I'd make bad decisions and hurried with all decisions just so I could concentrate on my cocaine habit. Freebasing tears you down quick. I became John Drew, Forward - 6'6", 205 Ibs. addicted." "I asked to be traded. Any place, I didn't care.
