Errol (E.R.T.) Holmes Trophy for Batting

The first President of LNZCC was Errol (E.R.T) Holmes, for whom is named the batting trophy for highest aggregate by a batsman in a season. 

Holmes was born in Calcutta in 1905 and played 301 first-class games for Oxford University, Surrey and 5 tests for England.  He was a Wisden Cricketer of the Year in 1936. 
​
​Holmes played his last game of first class cricket for Surrey in 1955, at the age of 49! 
​Of course, that was after he had been instrumental - with Trevor Campbell – in helping establish LNZCC under the auspices of the MCC.
