Manly Warringah First Grade Runners-up 1974/75

While the 1973/74 First Grade premiership under Mick Pawley remains a celebrated chapter in Manly Cricket Club’s history, it is less widely recognised that the club came within one match of securing back-to-back titles the following season.

Four Gordon Legends: The 1920-21 Ashes Heroes

With Australia leading England 3-0 after the Adelaide Test in December 2025, supporters and commentators began speculating about another 5-0 series whitewash. While England's victory in Melbourne ended those hopes, it brought to mind the first time Australia achieved a 5-0 series victory—in 1920-21—a triumph that featured four Gordon District Cricket Club players: Charlie Macartney, Charlie Kelleway, Johnny Taylor, and Bert Oldfield.

What do you enjoy most about playing cricket?

The social connections on and off the field that I’ve been fortunate enough to make, being able to compete with highly skilled cricketers that challenge me, and getting to be a part of a club that gets around each other and constantly makes playing cricket an enjoyable experience.

Given he was a solitary teenager, solitary games against a fibro outhouse in a cul-de-sac on the Moorefield Estate at Kogarah suited Kerry O'Keeffe.

Vaguely aware that a young Don Bradman famously used a stump and golf ball at a Bowral tank stand to hone his skills, O'Keeffe armed himself with a stump to play to all parts of the yard the rebounding tennis ball he threw against the fibro lavatory.

Women's cricket at Penrith Cricket Club in the 1990s

The 1990s saw a period in which women’s cricket flourished at Penrith CC, with the Club fielding two teams in the women’s competitions in most seasons. A highlight of this decade was the early career of the great Michelle Goszko, who went on to higher honours. The decade also featured the first years of club stalwart Kim Horwood’s (now Butler) career, with Kim still playing today.

William Peter Howell was known in cricket circles as ‘Old Bill’ to distinguish him from his son William Hunter Howell ‘Young Bill’ who also played for Cumberland and NSW – by coincidence the son was also a right-hand off-spinner and hard-hitting left-handed batsman. ‘Old Bill’ was born at Penrith on the 29th of December 1869 and died at Castlereagh on the 14th of July 1940.

A man of the land he had a farming property at Castlereagh where he concentrated on commercial Apiary and by the 1930s, he had 127 Bee hives in production.

John Dwyer was a staunch Cumberland (Parramatta) man both on and off the playing fields.

Ahead of time as training and fitness fanatic, he was an energetic and excellent all-round fieldsman especially roving around the covers region and possessed a safe pair of hands, as illustrated by his career tally of 116 catches. He was a fine sportsman who also played grade Rugby Union and League for Parramatta.

From the St George DCC 1960’s Scrapbook – Peter Leslie’s NSW Debut
26th November 1965 - A Whiz Kid at the SCG - Peter Leslie
Shattered windows and broken fibro at the home of the Leslie family in Bexley prove the dedication of 18-year-old Peter Leslie.
All the breaks and damage will seem worth it today when the young 6ft. fast bowler walks on to the Sydney Cricket Ground in his first State team.
"It all still seems un-real”, he said today. "I always had an ambition to play against England but it came as a shock to be picked to play against this team."
