The Cornwall
Cricket Club Inc was formed in 1989 after the amalgamation
of the Old Boys Hastings and the Whakatu Mahora Cricket Clubs.
Both clubs have origins going back to 1901.
The amalgamation took place to provide one strong cricket club
in Hastings. It is the only Premier Cricket Club in Hastings City.
The club is based
at Cornwall Park, and it is here that we have our Pavilion. Built
in 1996 this modern building is an asset to our club members,
to the game of cricket and to the community of Hastings.
Some of our club members have achieved Top Level National honours.
Mark Greatbatch, Ian Smith and Andrew Penn in cricket and Taine
Randell and Danny Lee in Rugby, with many other club members gaining
New Zealand age group, National First Class - mainly Central Districts,
Hawke’s Bay and District Honours.
We take pride in our commitment
as a club to nurture our young cricketers. Many talented cricketers
have moved into a successful first class career.
One of our women cricketers, Erin McDonald, played for the NZ
Women's team when it won The World Cup in 1999. More recently
Sarah McGlashan has represented the NZ National team and Zara
McWilliams and Aroha Northover have been selected in NZ A. Kelly
Rangi is current Central Districts Stags representatives.
Peter McGlashen, Michael Taiaroa and Brad Patton have represented
New Zealand in the under 19 age group.
