Bromley Cricket Club was one of the strongest English cricket clubs in the mid-18th century when its team was led by Robert Colchin a.k.a. "Long Robin". Cricket almost certainly originated in Kent and Sussex so it must have been played in and around Bromley since time immemorial. The first definite mention of the area in a cricket connection is a 1735 match on nearby Bromley Common between Kent and London Cricket Club. Kent won by 10 wickets after scoring 97 and 9-0 in reply to London's 73 and 32. Slindon Cricket Club was created in 1740. 1 person found this useful. When was Worthing Cricket Club created?

Slindon Cricket Club was famous in the middle part of the 18th century when it claimed to have the best team in England. It was located at Slindon, a village in the Arun district of Sussex. Cricket in the 18th century was funded by gambling interests and some of the wealthier gamblers, acting as patrons, formed whole teams that were representative of several parishes and even of counties. Such a team was "poor little Slyndon (sic) against almost your whole county of Surrey".

For the second time this October the LCS had another very good audience for our meeting, around 130 people turned up, to hear another very different conversation about cricket, with the subject of Women in Cricket, being the topic of Isabelle’s talk. The blazer on the left of the photo, was one of two, Official Cricket Ireland International Blazers given to me by Leicestershire CCC keeper Niall O’Brien. My thanks to Niall for such a generous donation. Not too many raffles where you have the chance to win such a prestigious prize. The two people who had the winning numbers and choose the blazers were Margaret Richardson and John Tillotson My thanks to everyone who has brought me items for the raffle, your continued help is very much appreciated. The theme of this month’s raffle was Christmas, with chocolates and boxed games making up some of the prizes. Again your generosity proved as normal to be exceptional, with £119 being taken towards the LCS funds. Many thanks to my merry band of helpers. The book stall took another £35 on Thursday night, Angie, Jean and Steve do a great job. And now the book stall is an integral part of our meetings. Howard telling us about the career of our speaker. Isabelle is not only an author, she commentates on cricket for the BBC, she is a qualified coach having her own coaching organisation.

  • Kennington Park
    SPORTS & LEISURE IN KENNINGTON PARK Pastimes The history of sport and leisure in Kennington Park by Rob Pateman Published by The Friends of Kennington Park sponsored by Surrey County Cricket Club PASTIMES A recreational hub On Whit Monday in May 893, the London County Council (LCC) took a census of all the people entering the parks under its control. That day, 40,00 people visited Kennington Park - making it the second most extensively used of all the LCC’s parks. This astonishing figure shows that the opportunities for sport, recreation and access to open space in Kennington Park were just as precious to local people then as they are now. This booklet looks at the different facilities the park has offered over the years – from outdoor gymnasiums and swimming pool to promenading and puppet shows.

  • Sport in a Capitalist Society
    SPORT IN CAPITALIST SOCIETY Why are the Olympic Games the driving force behind a clampdown on civil liberties? What makes sport an unwavering ally of nationalism and militarism? Is sport the new opiate of the masses? These and many other questions are answered in this new radical history of sport by leading historian of sport and society, Professor Tony Collins. Tracing the history of modern sport from its origins in the burgeoning capitalist economy of mid-eighteenth-century England to the globalised corporate sport of today, the book argues that, far from the purity of sport being ‘corrupted’ by capitalism, modern sport is as much a product of capitalism as the factory, the stock exchange and the unemployment line. Based on original sources, the book explains how sport has been shaped and moulded by the major political and economic events of the past three centuries, such as the French Revolution, the rise of modern nationalism and imperialism, the Russian Revolution, the Cold War and the imposition of the neo-liberal agenda in the last decades of the twentieth century. It highlights the symbiotic relationship between the media and sport, from the simultaneous emergence of print capitalism and modern sport in Georgian England to the rise of Murdoch’s global satellite television empire in the twenty-first century, and it explores, for the first time, the alternative, revolutionary models of sport in the early twentieth century. Sport in Capitalist Society is the first sustained attempt to explain the emergence of modern sport around the world as an integral part of the globalisation of capitalism.

Introduction – Brief, Scope, Vision and Aims. 1.1 Why Has the Strategy Been Developed? A number of factors make this an opportune time for the London Borough of Haringey to assess the existing playing pitch stock across the borough and develop a robust strategy with partners for the future supply, management and maintenance of high quality playing pitch facilities in response to identified demand. With the advent of changing national planning policy there is a need for the London Borough of Haringey to develop an updated and robust evidence base with regard to the supply, demand and quality of playing pitch facilities in order to ensure these important facilities are protected and benefit from planning gain and development contributions in the future. Sport England’s latest Playing Pitch Strategy (PPS) Guidance (October 2013) provides an updated methodology for completing these studies and there is now a need to update the 2004 Atkins study (Haringey Open Space and Sports Assessment) to provide a local specific and tailored PPS which makes clear recommendations about required facility improvements.

  • Hampstead Hockey Club in the Fifties
    HAMPSTEAD Hampstead and Westminster HOCKEY CLUB IN Hockey Club THE FIFTIES Revival and Resurgence Hampstead Hockey Club in the Fifties Revival and Resurgence Written and Produced for Hampstead and Westminster Hockey Club 2016 by Ian Smith Hampstead Hockey Club in the Fifties Revival and Resurgence Introduction Of its three transformative decades, that of the 1950’s is probably the most significant and possibly underestimated by the members of Hampstead Hockey Club (and latterly Hampstead and Westminster Hockey Club). This record seeks to put the decade into proper perspective, for it was the period of re- formation or revival after World War Two. The pre-War membership had largely dispersed and the Club effectively had lain dormant for ten years. All was begun from scratch. The initiative for the revival is attributed to three men, each as important in the club’s history as the 17 who met to form Hampstead Hockey Club in the Eyre Arms in 1894. They were Ruari Milsted, John Sankey and S J “Beaker” Saunders. The Club’s Minute Book spanning the hiatus possibly provides the most succinct summary. The Hampstead Hockey Club was re-formed after the 1939-45 War by meetings during the summer of 1950. R L Milsted was the Chairman of these meetings and ably assisted in the work of re- formation by J C Sankey, S J Saunders, P C Kay and A Reid (who was appointed Hon Sec). The first match of the re-formed Club was played on 21 October 1950 at the Hampstead Cricket Club ground, Lymington Road NW6, which became the headquarters of the Club.

  • Offside the Loss of London’S Playing Fields May 2006
    Environment Committee Offside The loss of London’s playing fields May 2006 Environment Committee Offside The loss of London’s playing fields May 2006 copyright Greater London Authority May 2006 Published by Greater London Authority City Hall The Queen’s Walk London SE1 2AA www.london.gov.uk enquiries 020 7983 4100 minicom 020 7983 4458 ISBN 1 85261 885 X This publication is printed on recycled paper Cover image by Belinda Lawley Rapporteur’s Foreword Having played football and cricket on many of London's playing fields during my school, college and now my adult life, l know too well the controversies surrounding the loss of playing fields. Two key things struck me during our inquiry. Not enough use is made of the planning framework to protect our playing fields in London, and the sporting communities who regularly using them are not recognised as custodians of green spaces of London. I hope this report can go some way to preserving London’s playing fields, increasing access to, and use of them. Our report should be seen as a reference guide for all those who are working to maintain and develop playing fields. In it we: x Attempt to learn the lessons of recent loss of playing fields. x Map the nature of the growing relationship between artificial turf pitches (ATPs ) and grass playing fields, so as to find innovative approaches to fund their long term future; and x Set up baseline data and maps on playing fields availability across London beyond just school ones, covering others in the rest of the public sector and private ones which will help draw a line under the issue.
