The Spike or Victoria College Review October 1930

Cricket Club

Cricket Club.

After a very successful season in all respects last summer, the Cricket Club is anticipating an equally successful one for the coming year.

Five teams were entered in the Wellington Cricket Association's Championships, and considerable success was gained by the Club. The Senior Eleven finished up in the position of runners-up, equal, the Junior A team won twice as many games as they lost, the Third XI. had the most successful season on record for a Third VI. of the Club, and the Junior C, if not quite so successful in the matter of winning games, could always be relied upon to put up a good fight, and actually possessed a really good attack, although in the matter of reliable batsmen they were not so well off. Socially the Junior D team had a good season also.

Present indications point to most of last year's players being again available for the Club, whilst among the new members there are Stephenson, a promising bowler and batsman; de Chateau, a stylish bat; and Crammond, a dashing bat.

We should like to remind 'Varsity men that if they intend to play cricket this year, 'Varsity is the team they should play for. The Club offers plenty of attractions page 55 to its members, there being the annual Speight Trophy match with Auckland University College, the Christmas tour, the fame of which is no news, and attempts will be made this year to organise matches against the Southern Universities.

A note in the rack, addressed to the Secretary, will always receive a ready response and and of the Club officials will be only too willing to give you any information concerning the Club that may require.
