In March 1954, Stockton District Cricket Club presented the Jim Dickinson Memorial Trophy to the Newcastle District Cricket Association in memory of Jim Dickinson, a member of the club who died in March 1953.
The trophy, "The Jimmy Dickinson Memorial Trophy", is awarded each year to the player with the highest average, with a provision that he gains 200 runs from no fewer than five innings and the trophy continues to be awarded by the NDCA to this day.
