It is with great regret that we announce the passing of Cliff Smithies on Thursday 10th July 2025, age 96. Cliff was our oldest known living member. He began playing for St.Georges in the 1940s. He was an honorary life member and a vice-president of the club for many years. A dedicated club man for decades, he captained the 2nd XI from 1959-1975, was club secretary from 1966-1976 and club chairman from 1979-1984. In addition he was also a stalwart of the hockey club for many years. Cliff was also active in the management of the whole facility at St.Georges and was a trustee of the charity which runs it. Due to increasing physical frailty he has been unable to visit the club for the last couple of years. His mind, however, remained as sharp as ever to the last. Older members of both cricket and hockey clubs will remember him fondly. Funeral details will be posted in due course.
