| Known as: | Adzy | |
| Date of Birth: | Younger than Bev and Dirty Durston, but a tadge older than my brother. | |
| Birthplace: | Swansea | |
| Senior Fugitives debut: | 1984 | |
| Best Performance for club: | Not sure the records go back that far! | |
| Favourite Moment in Fugitive career: | It has to be August 1997 – that championship winning match against Bridgend; nothing can compete with that. Although, there was THAT catch (Home v’s Radyr 2004) | |
| Captain / Officer Positions (& Year) | 1st XI Captain 1997 / 1998 | |
| Other Cricket Teams played for: | Whiteheads, Rogerstone (sorry Jonners only on a Sunday, it was years ago when they were short - honest!) | |
| Cricketing claim-to-fame: | First to smash the new clubhouse window with a monster six (cow corner) and upset the club steward! (Home v’s Miskin Manor 2004). Keeping wicket to ‘the legend’ – Mr BMS Price for almost 20 years and still not recognising the quicker ball….. always a pleasure, never a chore. | |
| Favourite other sports: | Road running and more recently cycle time trials | |
| Song to walk on to: | Bruce Springsteen – Born to Run | |
| Often quoted as saying: | Malcolm Price was a top MCC coach – he spent a lot of time with my brother and me. He always said that Fred had all the ability and no enthusiasm – I had all the enthusiasm and no ability!.... This is no dress rehearsal – let’s cram it in | |
