About Us

The Port Noarlunga Cricket Club was formed on 14th March 1933. The first President was Mr Hugh Corpe with Avon Linn as his Treasurer and Secretary. The first captain was voted on and a tie prevailed between Messrs Raynor and Beckman with the latter getting the nod after a toss of the coin (something that would decide a lot of issues as the Club grew older). All that was needed now was a ground and Mr H Jared generously donated the land to which we now play, on the condition that no harm would come to his livestock that grazed the land.
Mr Corpe decided the Club’s colours would be chocolate and gold, the same as the re-formed Port Noarlunga Lifesaving Club and local primary school. With the Club finding cricket apparel in chocolate colours hard to find, they settled for black and gold instead.
