AU$500.00 Read MoreAdd to cartCairns Cricket Association
Cairns: Cairns Cricket Association, 1952.Between 1939 and 1969 Chegwyn organised tours of leading Sydney cricketers to regional areas, during the war to raise money for war funds, but more broadly to enable country folk to see leading players and to give country players a chance to show off their talents. Despite the 30 years Chegwyn led these tours material relating to them is scarce. This Souvenir Program for Chegwyn’s tour to Cairns in 1952 contains short biographies of all of the players, a history of the Cairns Cricket Ground and other recollections of North Queensland cricket, miscellaneous cricket facts and humour, and advertisements for local businesses.
