Manorath Gill - Penrith Cricket Club

What’s been your most memorable moment in cricket so far?

My most memorable moment would be playing in and scoring 50+ in the Brewer Shield Grand Final. We lost a couple of early wickets, and I knew to get a competitive total we had to bat the full 50 overs. All of us – players, parents and coaches – had worked so hard to get to that point and even though we didn’t get the intended result, it was a phenomenal experience.

In January 2015, Chatswood Oval hosted a visitor that grade cricket grounds rarely see — a sitting Australian captain.

Michael Clarke had been sidelined with a back injury in the closing months of 2014, and with the Cricket World Cup just weeks away, he needed to prove his fitness to national selectors. The solution was straightforward enough: get some time in the middle, playing real cricket against real opposition. And so it was that one of the most recognisable sportsmen in the country quietly turned up to play for his club side, Western Suburbs, in a grade match against Gordon.

Jason Holley made his first grade debut for Sutherland in 1993 and for the next 20 or so years he continued to play the game in the right spirit and for the love of his team mates.

He represented NSW Under 17 and 19s, survived a car accident and came out the other side to win multiple premierships with Sutherland and was the very proud skipper of 3 first grade premierships with Burwood Briars, the club his father played for.

He was also a very talented Hockley player so let’s find out more about the man known to all as Jay

Darren Wotherspoon 2005/06 season

Following the departure of Matthew Phelps in 2003, Manly experienced a period of instability at the top of the batting order that persisted for several seasons. In preparation for the 2005/06 campaign, the club moved to address this gap by recruiting accomplished top-order batsman Darren Wotherspoon from Norths.

A product of the Central Coast, Wotherspoon brought with him an impressive junior representative résumé, including selection in the Australian Cricket Academy. He subsequently established himself in Sydney Grade cricket and earned representation in the NSW Second XI.

Jack O’Donoghue was one of those pugnacious cricketers who simply loved grade cricket. A loyal clubman to his core, a right-hander who opened the batting with determination, grit and a propensity to ‘give the ball a whack’, whether playing in First or Second grade, regardless of the pitch conditions.

A Popular and enthusiastic bloke, he represented Central Cumberland for almost a quarter of a century, from 1929/30 to 1951/52.
