Mark also played 3 seasons for Lindisfarne in the TCA during the middle of his career. He broke the TCA record at the time for the most runs in a season and won a premiership in his 1st season. Mark played around 20 x 2nd XI games for Tasmania during this period.

Mark joins fellow SLCC greats Shaun Young, Cedric Knight, Ron Williams, Ron Thomas, Max Thomas, Tom Room, Ian Young & George Bailey in the Hall of Fame.

Female Coaching Announcement
We are thrilled to introduce Sammy Curtis as the Women’s Director of Coaching for Season 2024/25 and beyond at Wynnum Manly District Cricket Club!
A number of you will know Sammy from his work at Queensland Cricket as the State Infrastructure Manager or more recently as National Cricket Centre Facilities Lead at Cricket Australia, but Sammy has a much deeper cricket history than that.
Sammy played 17 seasons of Provincial Cricket in New Zealand for Wairarapa, captaining and representing the Central Stags District A team.
Sammy was the Cricket Development Coordinator for Central Districts Cricket Association in Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand before moving to Queensland ten years ago.
In 2019 Sammy joined Coolum Cricket Club as player/coach in Coolum’s inaugural Division 1 season captaining the side in his last two seasons.
He also captained the Queensland Veterans Over 40s Gold Division 1 side at the National Championships in November last year.
Sammy will take on the Women’s Director of Coaching role for the Sea Eagles which will encompass not only coaching our Women’s First Grade side but further developing a female cricket program in its entirety across Women’s Second Grade, Rebecca McCoombes Cup, youth and junior programs.
With Sammy's expertise and passion for the game, we're looking forward to taking our female cricket program to new heights.
Welcome aboard, Sammy! 🎉

Stockton & Northern Districts Cricket Club is pleased to announce that David Redden has been awarded Life Membership at our annual presentation dinner Queens Wharf Hotel on Saturday evening.

It is hard to put in to words what David has done for Stockton & Northern Districts Cricket Club.

David was introduced to the club by former Seagull Trent Colley and ever since David has filled the role of 1st Grade Manager along with a variety of other roles within the club. As anyone who knows David will know, the work he gets through and selflessness he shows is nothing short of extraordinary.

David has been a constant pillar of strength through the ups and downs. Always a great sounding board, a voice of reason, a shoulder to cry on and a friend to everyone that crossed his path. His ability to build relationships is remarkable and he is widely respected and loved not only within our club but also within the Newcastle and Country Cricket community.

In addition to his roles with our club, David has been a magnificent ambassador for our club as long serving manager of Newcastle Colts and Senior Representative teams and the NSW Bush Blues. David was also recently awarded Life Membership of Country Cricket NSW.

It would be remiss not to mention the contribution of David's wife Merrillie, who has supported his commitment to the club. Thank you Merrillie!

We are immensely proud to honour David Redden with Life Membership of our club. A seagull for life!
