  • The Cricketers of Hampstead Hockey Club the First 20 Years; 1894 to 1914
    THE CRICKETERS OF Hampstead and HAMPSTEAD Westminster Hockey Club HOCKEY CLUB The Men of the Eyre Arms and the first 20 years 1894 to 1914 The Cricketers of Hampstead Hockey Club The first 20 years; 1894 to 1914 The Cricketers of Hampstead Hockey Club The first 20 years; 1894 to 1914 Written and Produced for Hampstead and Westminster Hockey Club 2015 by Ian Smith The Cricketers of Hampstead Hockey Club The first 20 years; 1894 to 1914 Note This account is an attempt to throw light, predominantly from a cricketing perspective, on the circumstances in which Hampstead Hockey Club evolved and the key individuals who oversaw its transformation from a hockey-playing section of Hampstead Cricket Club into a leading hockey club in England within a little more than a decade. It is certainly not intended as a record of the first twenty years of the club, as that has been covered more skilfully by club historian, Colin Greenhalgh. More is known of some of these individuals than others. The contents may therefore appear out of balance. Much is taken up with the exploits of Andrew Stoddart but without apology, as his was a remarkable sporting record that has remained virtually unparalleled and was a life that, like several of his sporting contemporaries, ended in tragic circumstances. His story was itself recorded in part in his own albums of cuttings that were thought to be preparatory to a memoir. That never materialised but the contents were taken up by his biographer, David Frith, who felt compelled to write because “here was a wonderful cricketer who has been piteously neglected by historians”.

  • 10 January 2006 and Boof, Mumbles, Sloon, Humptydoo, Tickets, Walt
    10 January 2006 and Boof, Mumbles, Sloon, HumptyDoo, Tickets, Walt and Jack for the Redbacks take on the Western Warriors in the KFC Twenty20 Big Bash at Adelaide Oval on a big night out. Diz scratched, sensible man. 14,298 people rock up and plenty of them munch their way through mountains of hamburgers, pies, chips, magnum and cornetto ice creams, and wash it all down with beers, cokes and maybe a glass of wine or two. Out in the middle blokes have bats and a ball in their hands but you have to wonder what for. I leave early and run into journalist (and former player) Alan Shiell. He remarks on my going and I say ‘I’ve seen it once and once is enough’. He says ‘that’s a fair call’, shakes his head, and adds there's nothing to interpret, you may as well just print the scores’. The Australian attempts a national interpretation in its editorial the next day: As abominations go, Twenty20 cricket is a lot of fun. The record crowd of 40,000 who turned out at the Gabba to watch Australia teach South Africa a lesson on Monday had a great time. But a lesson in what? Not in the cunning and craft that every Test player needs, or even the tactics, energy and ingenuity it takes to succeed in the one-day game. That’s because Twenty20 requires a different skill set. With each side facing 20 overs, it is a game for broad shouldered batsmen, whose idea of finesse is to swing, run and hope for the best.

  • North V South
    Northern Counties vs. Southern Counties Contests On the 5th September 2020 as a result of the ECF’s new venture the Online Counties Competition a match of ‘unprecedented’ proportion is to take a place, an online Northern Counties vs. Southern Counties Contest. The match will involve all five Unions split of course along a North/South divide, namely North (MCCU, NCCU and Oxfordshire) and South (Chiltern League, EACU, SCCU and WECU). Note Oxfordshire initially played in MCCA (Midland Counties Chess Association now MCCU) competition so have been assigned to the North if only to balance the number of counties on each side. It could be said that having introduced an online county championship the next ‘natural’ step for the ECF is to conduct a match combining the relative strengths of the North and South. The ECF is to be congratulated for holding an online county championship followed by a North vs. South Contest but is the latter really ‘unprecedented’? For those who are not really interested in or aware of chess history the notion of such a match being ‘unprecedented’ may indeed be correct, however, some chess historians know better! “…no challenge had been received from the North to play a match this season [1894-95]. It was probable that challenge would be received from the North to play a match on their ground in 1896.” The above is an extract from the SCCU 1895 AGM when the Council express disappointment that a third North vs. South match had not taken place. The previous two years had seen two successful encounters and since expected to be an annual event a third instalment, again to be hosted by the North, was anticipated but it never got off the ground.

  • TOURNAMENT BRIDGE in ENGLAND 1925-1945 Richard Fleet
    TOURNAMENT BRIDGE IN ENGLAND 1925-1945 Richard Fleet 0 Acknowledgements I gratefully acknowledge the help and advice that I have received from various officers, employees and members of the English Bridge Union, in particular Jeremy Dhondy, without whose persistent reminders this work might never have seen the light of day, Wolf Klewe and Peter Stockdale. Some of the material in this book has previously been published in Bridge Magazine. They have kindly given permission for reproduction both of this and of the photographs which appear. Finally, I owe a great debt to my wife, Debbie. Not only did she have to put up with my concentrating on this project to the virtual exclusion of everything else, she also had the thankless task of proofreading the draft manuscript, a task which she performed with characteristic dedication.

During 2012, I became convinced that it was right for me to cease full-time work when I reached the age of 60. I gave my employer a year’s notice of my intentions and left at the end of 2013, a couple of weeks after my 60th birthday.
