Glenn Hourigan Cup

The  Glenn Hourigan Cup  contest began in 2003-04 following the great success of the annual Ross Turner Cup fixture, which was inaugurated in 1998-99 to promote an opportunity for our best junior players to appear in a ‘showcase’ game of high level representative cricket.   

This annual U/13 contest was originated by the late  Tom Richmond  OAM , Life Member of HK&HDCA, Northern District CC and Coaches’ Association, who passed the responsibility to  Bruce Wood  OAM  (President, Coaches’ Association), in 2010-11.   

Bruce has maintained the fine tradition, appointing young RTC and GHC coaches, and scheduling the matches on adjacent ovals at Turramurra.   Connor Hindmarch  (HKHDCCA Head Coach) currently plays a key role in selecting the RTC and GHC teams each year. 

The Cup is named in honour of the late  Glenn Hourigan , who was the HK&HDCA Representative Secretary for 13 seasons from 1988-89 to 2000-01.  He also held the role of delegate to IDCA from 1988 to 2001.  For his services to cricket, Glenn was awarded HK&HDCA Life Membership (# 38) in 1997; and was a recipient of the Australian Sports Medal in 2000.
