Swansea Cricket Club

1950

Souvenir Match programme from Swansea Cricket Club's Centenary 1850-1950. A match v Llanelli Cricket Club played on 22nd July 1950 at St Helen's

This is a commemorative programme for the Centenary of the establishment of Cricket at Swansea and features articles by well known cricketers as well as the team lists of Swansea and Llanelli for that day's match. Although the club was originally formed in 1829 and reformed in 1840, a date of 1850 had been chosen as that from which the SCC felt continuous existence could be validated from.
