PREFACETwenty seasons hence seems so far away, yet twenty seasonsago seems so close. The mind, as it travels over a period oftime linked together by memories of events and of people whomade them happen, sees the bygone years as a compact collagewhile the unknown future is a wide expanse into the unknown.My introduction to the Club comes into focus easily. Leaving myclose family, friends and cricket connections in other lands andarriving in a new country had left gaps in my life. I had arrived inCanberra, with a young family, in early 1974. I was looking for alocal cricket club, perhaps to roll my arm over again and tointroduce my young son to a game that has claimed much of mylife and given me years of pleasure. I had always belonged to acricket club. Accepting Don Brooker's invitation to help with thejuniors was a start. Being a part of one of the early teams of theClub was easy. There were so few around those days and I waseasily drawn into accepting the position of Honorary Secretary. Ihave worn that hat ever since.In the last twenty seasons, the Club has grown from a six-teamjunior outfit to a major force in the Australian Capital Territory.Many enthusiastic members gave of their time and effort to makethe Club what it is today. I remember their hard work,ix
