The Grades Management Committee propose, (as part of the 125th Anniversary Celebrations), to produce a book that will contain comprehensive information about:
a) The Aberdeenshire Cricket Association
b) A short history of member clubs
c) A brief account of some now defunct clubs
d) Index of teams associated with the Aberdeenshire Cricket Association 1884 - 2009
e) Office-Bearers, League/Grade Champions and Trophy Winners 1884-2009
f) Grade/Youth league Tables 1947 - 2009
We invite all clubs to forward a brief history of their existence including outstanding players and performances and especially including any humorous events, peculiar occurrences that have taken place in this long history.
We are conscious that many cricketers or ex-cricketers will have interesting memories of playing for clubs that are no longer in being or are no longer members of the association. We cordially invite anyone who once played for, or has memories of playing against,clubs that no longer exist to forward stories that can be entered into the new book.
Any existing clubs that fail to put forward details of their clubs will find that the record that appears will be the same as that which appeared in the 1884 - 1984 edition.
This book will provide a host of information and entertaining reading for those who have an interest in cricket played under the auspices of the Aberdeenshire Cricket Association so your response to this request would be greatly appreciated. Please send all responses to
