Howard Kendall - Philadelphia Juniors Cricketer
Picture taken at Durham City Cricket Ground c.1963
MIDDLE ROW:
No. 2 Peter Graham (see above Grammar & Glebe Teams) - No. 5 Howard Kendall (Usworth Juniors & Grammar)
No. 6 Jacky Oliver (Usworth Seniors, later Philadelphia 1st Team Fast Bowler)
Jacky was notorious for turning up most weeks at The Oval to play in our multi-player, Sunday Morning Football Match.
Why? Very few of the Lads in the 15+ Teams wore football boots. Jacky played in his Spiked Cricket Boots!
The partially cropped Umpire, top-right of the picture, is Alderman Cecil Ferens.
He officiated in many Junior Matches at Durham City.
