The players and teams that have shattered records in the Huddersfield Cricket League.
We have named this archive in the memory of one of Huddersfield Crickets most legendary players. Peter played nearly 1,000 innings and bowled over 13,000 overs during a 62-season career. When he retired from playing Peter continued to collect and update his own personal archive which was handed to him by former Huddersfield League match secretary Hedley Collins in 2000. We hope that naming our archive after him keeps his legacy alive for many years to come. You can read our obituary to Peter here>>.
