At the 2017 National Championships in Sydney I made my debut for Queensland Over 50s cricket team. QLD Cap number 43.

It was quite an emotionally powerful day for to represent Queensland and also play on the hallowed field of Old Kings at Parramatta where the original Aboriginal Cricket team trained in preparation for their the very first Ashes series. So much history at Old Kings with many legends playing for Cumberland Cricket Club now Parramatta including Doug Walters.

We won on the day, but couldn’t retain the trophy for the National Championships. In the big picture, it didn’t matter, cricket was the winner
