North Shore Cricket Club NZ

26 May 2020

Of all the events i've been associated with or attended, I've never seen a "Standing Ovation" for a cricket or sports after dinner speech!

Congrats on your superb efforts at our annual luncheon!!  As Richie would say, a ‘simply marvellous effort’!  North Shore Cricket Club is the oldest cricket club in NZ and we have had an annual fundraising luncheon for the past 15 years.  We have had an array of top notch cricket personalities including Barry Richards, Jeff Thomson and Wayne Phillips.  However, this year’s luncheon was the best yet – largely in part to your highly energetic and entertaining after dinner speech!  The energy that you put into the delivery is second to none!  Of all of the events I’ve been associated with or attended, I’ve never seen a “Standing Ovation” for a cricket or sports after dinner speech!  That alone says it all!  And talk about funny!  From start to finish, all 400 people were in stiches!  Steve Wilkins, North Shore Cricket Club.
