STAN RUDDER - A LEGEND WAS BORN ON October 17th 1934
Happy Birthday
Click here to see the photos taken at the party
Yes, its true, Stanley is definitely 75 years old. I have seen his date of birth written down and I joined all his family and friends at his Happy Birthday Party in Portsmouth a few weeks ago.
Its funny how the word "legend" follows the word "leg-bye" in the dictionary. Stanley bowls so straight that if he hits your legs you're LBW out - no leg byes to him. But he is a legend. His name is famous not only in Hampshire cricketing circles but -through Seniors cricket - in many other counties as well. Even in Barbados he is remembered affectionately as a cricketing legend.
Many of our Seniors are of Stanley vintage. It is lovely to see pictures of Mike Swain - top of the Southern League bowling averages in 1986 sporting a very full beard and moustache - playing Representative and Gosport matches with Stanley. Also our distinguished former Havant opening bat and successful Captain Geoff Owen played alongside Stanley in the 80s. Stanley was a vital part of Havant and South Hants championship sides at the time. Jan Bridle, Pete Tapper, Neil Trestrail, Chris Wood, Jim Smallbone, John Harris Tony Wharton and Geoff Prouton can all recall Stanley
in his younger days.
From his early start with EEM cricket club in Portsmouth Stanley went on to get 621 Southern League wickets with a best 8 - 13 v Waterlooville in 1977. And can you imagine; a bowling economy rate of 2.53 over 30 years cricket. Hampshire C.C. you missed a bargain. But Stanley's cricket took off in the late 80s when he became a regular and very successful Hampshire Seniors player- he moved on to the over
Sixty XI and was very proud of his selection for England v Australia "Test" match this summer. He did though deny himself a Windies Test shirt by playing for England. Stanley, the Seventy + XI waits for you in 2010.
In wishing you a Happy Birthday Stanley we want to include Shirley, Eve, Philip and Clayton in our best wishes. There's only one question in my mind . You said "I played with Gary Sobers when we lived in the south east side of Barbados. To be honest he couldn't bat. I would say I was the better batsman than him" Ask him Stanley when you see him soon.
Many Happy returns, Stan
