Preston Cricket Club

Nathan LAMBERT (Preston) (13:22): Preston Cricket Club have had a difficult time with their cricket nets, which have been caught up with a long-running back and forth between Darebin council and the level crossing removal team, and I just want to take this opportunity to thank the leadership of that club, including Stephen Wilson, Lee Cooper and Alex Lewis, for their advocacy and their patience with that issue. But I do particularly want to acknowledge the contribution to that club of Richard Norris. Richard started as a scorer with the Preston Cricket Club in 1948. As well as playing over 500 ā€¨games, including six premierships, he has been on their general committee for 58 years, and we acknowledge his very deserved induction into their hall of fame.
