Stockton & Northern Districts Cricket Club is pleased to announce that David Redden has been awarded Life Membership at our annual presentation dinner Queens Wharf Hotel on Saturday evening.

It is hard to put in to words what David has done for Stockton & Northern Districts Cricket Club.

David was introduced to the club by former Seagull Trent Colley and ever since David has filled the role of 1st Grade Manager along with a variety of other roles within the club. As anyone who knows David will know, the work he gets through and selflessness he shows is nothing short of extraordinary.

David has been a constant pillar of strength through the ups and downs. Always a great sounding board, a voice of reason, a shoulder to cry on and a friend to everyone that crossed his path. His ability to build relationships is remarkable and he is widely respected and loved not only within our club but also within the Newcastle and Country Cricket community.

In addition to his roles with our club, David has been a magnificent ambassador for our club as long serving manager of Newcastle Colts and Senior Representative teams and the NSW Bush Blues. David was also recently awarded Life Membership of Country Cricket NSW.

It would be remiss not to mention the contribution of David's wife Merrillie, who has supported his commitment to the club. Thank you Merrillie!

We are immensely proud to honour David Redden with Life Membership of our club. A seagull for life!
