The next time you hear a Newcastle district cricketer whinge about traveling over the Stockton Bridge or down to Toronto for an away game, mention Ian Redpath.

The Stockton & Northern Districts batsman was without a doubt the most committed cricketer in town in the 2012-13.

During the 2012-13 pre-season, Redpath emailed every club in Newcastle requesting a chance to play.

Six replied, and because he had relatives in Stockton and an offer from the club to provide accommodation if required, Redpath chose the Seagulls.
