This team is thought to be either the North Essendon Methodist Cricket Club in the 1930s, or the North Essendon Presbyterian Cricket Club in the 1930s. The three players named below played for both clubs. The ground might be the Cross Keys Reserve. Courtesy of Don Mountain.

Gee they're not all spring chickens are they? Only three young ones in the team. Sorry can't help but I wouldn't be surprised if at least one of the young ones was a son of one of the more mature gents.
ReplyDeleteCricket teams can remain quite stable over a period of years. They may have started out together years earlier as a young team. Plus it is a game older men (and women) can continue to play into later years.
