Martin has been a member since he actually had some hair, at the age of 14, and was the club secretary at that age.(I have a copy of the minutes of a club meeting which he wrote out in his best "joined up " writing) Despite his age (100 years) he is a very active member of the club, and every week is involved with the grass cutting and wicket preparation. He is now the Club's Treasurer. Over the years he has topped the averages for both batting and bowling. He is still playing every week, scoring runs and bowling, although I must say, his fielding has become a bit slow ?? He is the father of Danielle and Trub (Marcus) and a labrador dog which he insists on bringing to every match to steal Bob's sandwiches. |
