Behind a cheerful, quiet and calm exterior lurks an inner demon, clawing to emerge to to smash opposition bowlers out of the park and strike fear into the opposition with a cunning array of bone breaking beamers.

​

Son of the club President, little Tommy Carter has played for the OLCC almost since birth but surprisingly retains an excellent batting technique and is a sprightly athlete in the field and between the wickets.

​

Never one for rash utterances or speaking out of turn, Raymond van Tomley is nevertheless a tour stalwart; whether it is accompanying and encouraging more boisterous members in their nightly jollity, sharing a double bed with his brother or assisting on any number of pranks at the expense of his Dad. In time and with serious application he could yet become a mild eccentric.

​

Holds all kinds of club records and scores mountains of runs, it's high time he gave up ideas of playing for other clubs to concentrate seriously on OLCC cricket
