Sutherland District Cricket Club - 4th Grade Premiers in inaugural season 1965-66

In the Club’s first season 1965-66, the youthful 4th Grade team, well led by experienced off-spinner Ross Longbottom, won the premiership in an incredible final at Sutherland Oval. The star of the final was 15-year-old pace bowler Paul Lennon, who took 9-19 off 10.3 overs, as Central Cumberland were routed for just 43. Sutherland replied with 6/67 before the match was called off with Sutherland premiers. It was a fourth consecutive 4th Grade premiership for 46-year-old Longbottom, who had captained St.George to premierships in 1962-63, 1963-64 & 1964-65.
