2nd November was the chosen date to hold a centenary celebration of the opening of Trumper Pavilion as it coincided with Trumper’s birthday. It was back on 13th September, 1924 that the completed pavilion, a joint project between Willoughby Council and Gordon District Cricket Club, was opened by Mayor of Willoughby HW Clarke. At the same time the 1923-24 1st Grade Premiership was unfurled to an appreciative audience.

The Club proposed the name Trumper Pavilion to commemorate the late champion batsman who had moved with his family to 10 Help Street, Chatswood in 1909 and played for Gordon until his passing in 1915.
