Kensington Cricket Club
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Kensington District Cricket Club ("The Browns") is a semi-professional cricket club in Adelaide, South Australia. It competes in the South Australian Grade Cricket League, which is administered by the South Australian Cricket Association (SACA).
In 1963, the Burnside City Council relocated the Club from the Kensington Oval to the Kensington Gardens Reserve. The Club has leases over the three cricket ovals in perpetuity as compensation for this relocation.
Kensington has an extremely rich past player history, dominated by the presence of Sir Donald Bradman and Clarrie Grimmett who played for the club in the 1930’s. Other famous names to play for Kensington include Sam Parkinson, Peter Brinsley, John Inverarity, Kevin Wright, Brian Hurn, Ian Glover, Neil Dansie, Terry Jenner, Jeff Hammond, Howard Mutton, James Brayshaw, Tim May, Jamie Siddons, Mark Cleary and Greg Blewett.
Kensington has won 15 A Grade Premierships and has been runner up on 6 other occasions.
