THE LEGEND OF THE HOLDSWORXH CUP The Cup, a tall, oolid silver flamboyajitly decorated Grecian urn ourmouilted by a cover with an emu guid chick, was presented to the Cricket Association for annual competition between the 1st Grade Clubs by Mr, Holdsworth in the year 1882, The conditions of the competition contained a pr oviso that ajay Club winning in three consecutive years would become the absolute owners of the Trc^hy, The Annual General Meeting of the Club was held at the Oxford Hotel, Oxford Street, on August 28th, 1884, Mr, Richard Teece being in the Chair and Mr, Tommy Garrett, honorary secretary. The Sydney Morning Herald of the 1st September of that year records the following extract from the Club's Annueil Report:- < "The prowess of your representatives in the field has surpassed the achievements of former years cind the interest which has been evinced by the members of the University in the welfare of the Club has exceeded all expectations. During the past season the 1st XI took part in 9 matches and were defeated on only one occasion; winning 4 euid 4 being drawn. The single defeat was sustained at the hands of the Newcastle Cricket Club on the Association Ground last Easter Monday, The contests for the Holdsworth Challenge Cup have at last been concluded and your Committee are proud to report that having succeeded in passing through three successive Cup seasons with one defeat the Club is now the possessor of the coveted Trophy," The Cup, in a solid timber case, was stored in the basement under the Oval Stand, but heavy flooding silted up the store room cind the Trophy disappeared from human ken for more them two generations. In 1956 a new Cricket President, in search of some extra storage space, had the basement excavated and the magnificent Trophy, well-protected in the massive case, was brought to light. In 1959 the Cup, mounted on a red-cedar plinth, was put up for Competition (by the Club) against a team organised by the President of the Sports Union, Professor Dunstan, and this year's match (now known as the Patron's Match) is the fourteenth in the series. THE "Motitv" FAITHFULL BAT From a truck-load of rubbish proceeding to the tip in 1956 einother relic of the Club'o early history was also salvaged a Cobbett bat, still in a good state of repair bearing the following inscription in gold - Presented to H, M. Faithfull Esq by the M, U, C, C, (Melbourne University Cricket Club) as a mark of appreciation of his splendid bowling in the Inter-Varsity Match, This was the first Inter-Varsity Match in Australia Monty was the eldest of the four Faithfull boys, educated at the Iving's School and the University of Sydney, he played for the Club for many years. Their historic home was Springfield Station at Goulburn, as was "Springfield House" in Springfield Avenue, Kings Cross. The site of "Springfield House" is now occupied by The Village Centre, designed by Jon Erby's architectural firm. One of his partners in those hiatoric Inter-Varsity games of the 1870's was Mr. Iceton, later Monty's partner in the legal firm of Iceton, FEiithfull and Baldock, UNIVERtSITY VETERANS 1969 - 70 BATTING AVERAGES Name inns N,0.

  • Beware Milestones
    DECIDE: How to Manage the Risk in Your Decision Making Beware milestones Having convinced you to improve your measurement of what really matters in your organisation so that you can make better decisions, I must provide a word of caution. Sometimes when we introduce new measures we actually hurt decision making. Take the effect that milestones have on people. Milestones as the name infers are solid markers of progress on a journey. You have either made the milestone or you have fallen short. There is no better example of the effect of milestones on decision making than from sport. Take the game of cricket. If you don’t know cricket all you need to focus in on is one number, 100. That number represents a century of runs by a batsman in one innings and is a massive milestone. Careers are judged on the number of centuries a batsman scores. A batsman plays the game to score runs by hitting a ball sent toward him at varying speeds of up to 100.2 miles per hour (161.3 kilometres per hour) by a bowler from 22 yards (20 metres) away. The 100.2 mph delivery, officially the fastest ball ever recorded, was delivered by Shoaib Akhtar of Pakistan. Shoaib was nicknamed the Rawalpindi Express! Needless to say, scoring runs is not dead easy. A great batting average in cricket at the highest levels is 40 plus and you are among the elite when you have an average over 50. Then there is Australia’s great Don Bradman who had an average of 99.94 with his next nearest rivals being South Africa’s Graeme Pollock with 60.97 and England’s Herb Sutcliffe with 60.63.

    History of Nunawading Cricket Club Nunawading, What’s in a name To get a wider understanding of how the Club started and, in fact, how the BHRDCA started it is worth spending a while discussing the history of the Nunawading and Box Hill districts. There is a strong correlation between the ‘parishes’ of Nunawading, in particular, and Box Hill and the longer serving BHRDCA teams, Nunawading included. Over the next few paragraphs, I will provide a brief history of how Nunawading, formerly Tunstall, came to be and it’s progress from a rural bushland into the busy middle class suburb it has been since the war. The First people of Nunawading When white men first arrived in Victoria, in 1835 the indigenous Aboriginal community was displaced and had to move from traditional grounds, being occupied by Europeans, to displaced locations. When this displacement occurred to the aborigines in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, or perhaps to continue the old, traditional ways, Melbourne’s aborigines, who formed tribes all over the countryside, met in community places and would declare the fundamentals of the unity that existed between them. Following this show of unity more business like matters like common interests and disputes were discussed. One of these meeting places was in Melbourne’s East in a place thought to have been called Numpha-wading by the local aborigines and called Nunawading by the new European settlers, keen to preserve the indigenous names. The popular translation for this word is ‘ceremonial ground’. The boundaries of the native Nunawading were unclear, even to the aborigines and the parish of Nunawading was hilly and heavily timbered and covered a large area.

  • A Glossary of Cricket Terms
    A glossary of cricket terms Cricket, more than most sports, is full of expressions and terms designed to bewilder the newcomer (and often even the more seasoned follower). Arm Ball A ball bowled by a slow bowler which has no spin on it and so does not turn as expected but which stays on a straight line ("goes on with the arm") The Ashes Series between England and Australia are played for The Ashes Asking rate - The runs required per over for a team to win - mostly relevant in a one-dayer Ball Red for first-class and most club cricket, white for one-day matches (and, experimentally, women once used blue balls and men orange ones). It weighs 5½ ounces ( 5 ounces for women's cricket and 4¾ ounces for junior cricket) Ball Tampering The illegal action of changing the condition of the ball by artificial means, usually scuffing the surface, picking or lifting the seam of the ball, or applying substances other than sweat or saliva Bat-Pad A fielding position close to the batsman designed to catch balls which pop up off the bat, often via the batsman's pads Batter Another word for batsman, first used as long ago as 1773. Also something you fry fish in Beamer A ball that does not bounce (usually accidently) and passes the batsman at or about head height. If aimed straight at the batsman by a fast bowler, this is a very dangerous delivery (and generally frowned on) Bend your back - The term used to signify the extra effort put in by a fast bowler to obtain some assistance from a flat pitch Belter A pitch which offers little help to bowlers and so heavily favours batsmen Blob A score of 0 (see duck) Bodyline (also known as leg theory) A tactic most infamously used by England in 1932-33, although one which had been around for some time before that, in which the bowler aimed at the batsman rather than the wicket with the aim of making him give a catch while attempting to defend himself.
