Father's Footsteps
Standing on the Shoulders of Giants (Newton) - The younger the scholars, the more sharp-sighted (Priscian)
Cricket gets into the blood. The pride and the passion enjoyed by a Cricketer is rekindled with the arrival of a Son. Almost as soon as they can hold a bat or ball; Dad is showing them a forward defensive stroke, or how to bowl leg-spin. The enjoyment Cricket brings, never leaves those early golden moments - Father & Son - Granddad & Grandson. To celebrate this 'passing of the baton of life', let us look at Hayfield CC players Past and Present and witness their Father's Footsteps. (Alphabetical order)
