My debut season as President for our club has certainly been full on, with many learning opportunities and it is with some pride that we have had the ability to proVide cricket for so many participants. OBC are, by some distance, the biggest club in the South Island, with over 700 actiVe members. There are plenty of moVing parts and I am Very grateful for our committee, our contractors and suppliers for deliVering such a fantastic opportunity for members to play. We are spoilt by having the best setting for cricket in Christchurch and the effort of our most recent Life Member, Paul McEwan needs to be acknowledged. He stepped in at the 13th hour a couple of years ago to take oVer as the Groundsperson and has done a magnificent job. We are indebted for your lifetime’s contribution to the club, which not only impacts the senior members with the wickets, but also the quality of pitches that you provide to our youngest of members. I sincerely say thank you from me personally and also from eVeryone else who you have helped in a small way. We have taken positiVe steps in updating the facilities of the club in recent seasons and we have completed the short term plan on the changing rooms with the addition of the shower and toilet block. This has already made an impact on the club and, if we can find a way to connect up the hot water, the showers will be well receiVed. Our junior section continues to grow. After the magnificent impact of the world cup, we were able to proVide 58 junior teams the ability to play cricket this season. Our whole junior program is successfully run by Mandie Godliman and her merry band at Coaching Solutions. Mandie is the face of the club at our junior ranks and her output and leVel of performance is second to none. Coaching Solutions is truly a market leader within the sporting community, not only in Christchurch but also New Zealand. Her impact within the club needs to be acknowledged within the junior ranks, but also the women’s section. It is a win-win relationship, as we are able to offer a rich employment for her business and she represents the club really well. So Mandie thank you for your exceptional effort for not only last year, but the years preVious and let’s hope it continues for many more years. Performance wise, the women’s section was our shining light this season. With particular mention to the Premier women’s side, who punched aboVe their weight all year to fight to the final weekend where they fell just short. With some dubious decisions from the powers that be they might have been duel champions for the summer. The diVision 1 team were Very competitiVe and made the final once again, with a highlight of playing on Hagley OVal during the year. Thank you to Camille, April and their Vast array of helpers who do a great job of herding the troops weekly. 2 Old Boys Collegians Cricket Club The men’s section had a lacklustre season to say the least, the Premier team got themselVes into situations to win, but wilted in crucial situations. With a young squad who are approaching the 20-50 games of experience they should be learning to make sure they win the piVotal situations and have a successful season. Congratulations to the three members who richly deserVed their club caps this season; ● David Wakefield • Ben Brady ● Adam Hastilow (Who had the special honour of receiVing his cap off Shane Bond and Olympic Bronze medallist Tom Walsh) The 2A and 2B Gators suffered from lower numbers at times and did a fantastic job to remain competitiVe. Greg McCarthy worked himself ragged to make sure that we had 3 full sides on the paddock weekly and was deserVedly awarded the ‘HSOB SerVices to the Club’ for his impact. Our social teams of Team Boon, SNCC and the Presidents team were always a welcome sight on Elmwood Park (though too infrequently). Team Boon were desperately unlucky to fall short due to some unfair metro cricket rulings and I hope they remain competitiVe again this year to win a title that they richly deserVe. It was great to see the Presidents side back representing OBC with Hamish Anderson back from a short hiatus (neVer retirement) coordinating the troops, a significant improVement was the match reports courtesy of James O’Connor. 3 Old Boys Collegians Cricket Club Being a small club, city and nation we are Very close to people who can be successful in their chosen fields and OBC is no stranger to success. Congratulations to the following club members who had higher honours: International Representatives Blackcaps Holland T20 World Cup White Ferns Todd Astle Logan Van Beek Erin Bermingham Katey Martin New Zealand A New Zealand U19 Todd Astle Daniel Stanley Ed Nuttall Canterbury Representatives Men’s Women’s Underage Teams Canterbury Men’s/Kings Canterbury Magicians Canterbury U19 Todd Astle Erin Bermingham Morgan Jeffery Ed Nuttall Mereana Hyde Daniel Stanley Cameron Fletcher Logan Van Beek Otago Sparks Women’s U21 Katey Martin Allie Mace Cochrane Canterbury

  • 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.

This unique series combines aspects of the expanding study of sport in the global society, providing comprehensiveness and comparison under one editorial umbrella. It is particularly timely, with studies in the political, cultural, anthropological, ethnographic, social, economic, geographical and aesthetic elements of sport proliferating in institutions of higher education. Eric Hobsbawm once called sport one of the most significant practices of the late nineteenth century. Its significance was even more marked in the late twentieth century and will continue to grow in importance into the new millennium as the world develops into a ‘global village’ sharing the English language, technology and sport.
