Bill Hutchinson Award

Bill Hutchinson was a true stalwart of Felling Cricket Club, playing from the 1930s through to the 1970s and serving the club with great distinction. His contribution extended well beyond the field. Over the years he held the roles of captain, chairman and treasurer giving his time and energy to the club in so many ways.

Bill was also instrumental in purchasing the club’s first pavilion in 1930 helping to lay the foundations for future generations of Felling cricketers. His decades of service and commitment earned him an important place in the club’s history and the award in his name is a fitting tribute to that contribution.

The Bill Hutchinson Award is presented to Felling’s most improved junior of the year. It recognises the effort, determination and willingness to learn that help a young player develop throughout the season. It is an award to be proud of linking the achievements of our young cricketers with someone who gave so much to the club.
