Clive Johnston 1925-91

An examination of the history of any successful sporting club or association will generally identity a handful of people whose dedicated contribution over an extended period, was an important ingredient in its success. In terms of the Petersham / Petersham-Marrickville District Cricket Club, Clive Johnston was such a person.

With the start of World War II in 1939-40, the 14 year old Petersham-born Clive William Johnston ventured to the local Petersham Oval to attend the Saturday morning coaching classes. Despite his tender years, he showed enough batting talent and enthusiasm to attract the selector’s attention and he made his Sydney Grade debut that season in Petersham’s 3rd Grade team.

Simon Taufel was a fast bowler coming through the Sydney Grade Cricket ranks when a back injury curtailed his playing ambitions and he went on to become cricket umpire.

74 Tests, 174 One Day Internationals, 34 T20 Internationals and was voted the number one umpire in International Cricket for 5 consecutive years.

It’s been quite a journey filled with wonderful experiences and a few lows.

Jason Young played all his junior cricket in Wagga Wagga in the Riverina region of NSW.

A prodigious young batter with enormous talent and a thirst for runs and it wasn’t long before Jason sparked the interest of NSW underage selectors and Sydney talent scouts.

Jason played 3 seasons of Green Shield for Balmain and after leaving school he joined the St George District Cricket Club. He made his Sydney Grade Cricket first grade debut at St George and is the proud owner of first grade cap number 317.

A successful Under 19 National Championships saw Jason moved to Adelaide with the Australian Cricket Academy and he played Adelaide Grade Cricket for Prospect Cricket Club.

Vale Stan Beal

It is my very sad duty to advise that Stan Beal, one of the club’s most popular and respected members, passed away in Prince of Wales Hospital, last night 12 June after a short illness. He was 73.

Stan joined the old Randwick club as 2nd Grade scorer in 1986-87 at the suggestion of workmate and former 1st Grade skipper, Gary Bensley. The following season he progressed to score for the 1st Grade side while undertaking the role of Publicity Officer. Within a year, he had added Practice Captain to his busy schedule. That was the beginning of a multitude of roles he would go on to perform for the club over a period of 37 years.

Despite battling health issues throughout his life, Stan was a tireless worker who may best be described as the ultimate volunteer. He was also CEO and Assistant CEO for Randwick, Operations Manager, committee member, Chairman of Selectors, delegate to the local junior council, manager and scorer of the Poidevin-Gray team. For Randwick Petersham he was Practice Captain and 2nd Grade scorer for many years, 1st Grade scorer on occasions while providing voluntary assistance whenever help was needed.

Apart from his documented activities, Stan’s assistance in providing accommodation for players, finding them jobs and generally acting as mentor and friend to many, cannot be measured in any material way. The huge number of “thank-you’s” directed to Stan in the end-of-season reports of captains in the club annual reports over the years, is testimony to the assistance he provided and the esteem in which he was held.

At the Annual General Meeting in 2019, President Mike Whitney made a special award to Stan, acknowledging a contribution to the club and cricket, well beyond what may be expected by the most devoted of volunteers.

Stan Beal was one of a kind and will be sorely missed. Funeral details will be advised when available.

RIP Stan Beal.

Lyall Gardner

Jeff Thorpe made his first grade debut for the Balmain Tigers at the age of 16 during the 1986/87.

A tall wicket keeper batsman Jeff had the good fortune to keep to many first class bowlers and played in some very talented Tigers team in the late 80s and was part of their premiership winning team in 1998/99.
