It is with great sadness that I must inform members of the death of Ernest Walker. Ernest was the club's first chairman, elected to the position in 1985. A position he held for 17 years. He played a huge part in the development of the club. During his time many improvements were made to the clubhouse, dressing rooms and ground. After he finished on the committee Ernest was an ever present for home games at RCC maintaining a keen interest in all things cricket at Rawdon. Our thoughts are with his family and we will post details of the funeral arrangements as soon as they are known.
