Australia v South Africa Rhinos Three Day Game. A Historic Match for Over 55s Cricket.

What began as a simple idea between Cricket Australia Masters Over 50 and 55s Board and Roger Moult in South Africa became something far more meaningful. The Over 55s Australian team took on the South African Rhinos in a three-day Test at Claremont Cricket Club in Cape Town from 10–12 March 2026, as part of the inaugural Over 55s Cape Town International Tournament.

THE FINALS - A Grade v Ex-Services Cricket Club Armidale, 4th/11th April, 1970
Waratahs were handed a thumping, the game effectively lost by tea on the first afternoon as Ian McLean blew away the deck of cards mascarading as Waratahs batting line-up. McLean and Browning made near hundreds on the second Saturday, 134 being added for the last three wickets.

UTS North Sydney Men's Second Grade 2025-26 season wrap

It was abundantly clear that this year’s UTS North Sydney men’s second grade side would be in contention for finals long before a ball was bowled. The squad was deep, balanced, and full of talent, and the energy around the group in pre-season suggested we were building towards something special. As the season unfolded, that belief proved well-founded—although, as cricket tends to remind us, things don’t always follow the script.
Skipper, Robbie Aitken, provides his report on the season that was – and what might have been.

Arthur Elvy 1939-2010

Arthur Morris claimed that he was the “forgotten man” when Don Bradman was bowled for Test cricket’s most famous duck in his final innings, as it is rarely mentioned that Morris was the batsman on the other end. In much the same way, Arthur Elvy had claim to have been the “forgotten man” in another famous cricket incident. He was the batsman on the other end when 19 year old Doug Walters hit a ball into Kippax Lake from Sydney Cricket Ground No. 2 in a New South Wales Colts match to catapult him into an outstanding Test cricket career. The season was 1962-63 and Arthur Elvy was entitled to be there as one of the finest young spin bowler/ batsmen in the State.

Over the course of a distinguished cricketing career, Corrie established himself as both a highly effective player and a respected leader within the club. Making his debut in the 2006/07 season in 3rd Grade, he quickly demonstrated his potential and work ethic, steadily progressing through the ranks.

His performances with the ball were a cornerstone of his contribution to the team.

THE FINALS - A Grade v Easts-2, 28th March/11 April 1953
The greatest Final Waratahs ever played and possibly one of the best in the history of the New England CA/ADCA. Everything went wrong for Waratahs on the first day - a teamsheet mix up, run outs, dropped catches, a broken finger. Then it rained for four days before the second day and they had Don Paul.
It still goes wrong for Waratahs, for an engraving error years later meant that the Antill Cup - for A Grade MINOR Premiers, was confused with the Richardson Cup - for PREMIERS - and that error was never rectified, meaning the ADCA records Easts-1 as the Premiers in 1952-53 ... and they didn't even make the Final! The photo evidence makes it clear.

Teyana La Brooy - with humility comes wisdom - Penrith Cricket Club

What do you enjoy most about playing cricket?

When I’m captaining, I really enjoy the strategy of the game, figuring out everyone’s strengths and how to use them best in a game. It’s similar to solving a complex puzzle! Definitely being part of a team is extremely enjoyable, and I love being part of a group and working towards something together, too.

THE FINALS - B Grade v Public Service 9th April, 1960
The ultimate yarn of the ultimate nail biter, 13 to win, 9 down and two batsmen who have scored 71 runs in 21 innings during the season! Col Marshall bowled B Grade into the game, skipper John McIntyre did his best to get them close but John and Dick Russell had to get those 13 runs ... snicks, dropped catches and wickets off no balls later ... a tale retold by Bob Brennan and Laurie Blake at the 2010 Reunion.

THE FINALS - A Grade v University, 30th March/6th April 1968.
Dick Stayner's left arm express pace proved too much for Waratahs as all but Graham Johnson collapsed before it and then University's openers secured the win on the first day. Tom Cooke led a spirited comeback on two but it was all too late.

THE FINALS - A Grade v St Peters, 3rd/4th April 1976
In a season that was under-reported in the Armidale Express, St Peters won their first A Grade Premiership, beating Waratahs in the Final.
Batting first, they made a strong total on the back of David Mitchell’s aggressive century, one which contained three huge sixes but also three dropped catches which should have been taken. Keith Smith made a chanceless half century batting at three. Brian Joice (#218), back in A Grade for the second half of the season, was the best of the bowlers, taking 6-76 off 28 overs, bowling unchanged from the time he came on in the 11th over.
Waratahs collapsed in reply on Sunday, their top order decimated by Brian Bower and the rest bemused by Mark McCann’s leg spinners. Jack Trestrail (#303) and Bruce Mathieson (#250) added 46 for the sixth wicket in the only partnership of note.
Waratahs v St Peters - A Grade Final, 3rd/4th April 1976
St Peters 259 (David Mitchell 106, Keith Smith 61, Stuart McDowell 49. Brian Joice 6-76) defeated Waratahs 106 (Jack Trestrail 34, Bruce Mathieson 24. Mark McCann 4-38, Brian Bower 3-31) by 153 runs.

THE FINALS - A Grade v Ex-Services Cricket Club Armidale, 27th March & 3rd April 1971.
Waratahs didn't make enough runs thanks to Rene Mullen's 5fa, with Greg Russell top scoring in their 141 but they had Ex-Services on toast at 7-103 before former Waratahs man, Ray Rose, calmly got them home.
