The first world war emboldened women in a number of ways – and many women’s sporting organisations were formed in the years after 1918. Cricket’s moment came in October 1926 when a group of female hockey players traveled to Colwall in Herefordshire for a few days of play. Marjorie Pollard, who wrote Cricket for Women and Girls (1934), remembered: After the play was over we sat in the Park Hotel at Colwall … and discussed how cricket could become real for us – no longer to be an elusive thing, that one played half afraid of ridicule. We pondered, mused, talked. Born from this was the Women’s Cricket Association – “to provide facilities for and bring together those women and girls who previously have had little opportunity of playing cricket after leaving school”. Clubs and county associations were formed, matches were played – and a decade later there were 105 women’s clubs affiliated to the WCA.

" Aboriginal Accounts for Russian Boxer" BRISBANE, Sunday The Brisbane Stadium was crowded last night when Jack Deshong (12.12), an Aboriginee, knocked out Max Goonik (11.8), Russian, in the sixteenth round. The fight was a rough and tumble throughout, the Russian rushing and swinging wild blows, of which the black evaded many and occasionally landed heavy jolts to the body and right upper- cuts; he had Goonik down many times and finally in the sixteenth dropped him and the towel was skied.
