Bat-and-Ball Sports

Jack Hutcheon, in full John Silvester Hutcheon (1882 to 1957), was an Australian cricketer, barrister and sports administrator from Queensland. A right-handed batsman, he played first-class cricket for Queensland between 1905 and 1910, scored 259 not out in 169 minutes against a Northern Rivers team in 1908-09 and captained the state to a 66-run win over Victoria in his final season. He later chaired and then presided over the Queensland Cricket Association until his death, helping win Queensland's entry to the Sheffield Shield and Brisbane's Test ground status, and was appointed CBE in 1956. He also represented Australia at lacrosse in 1907 and Queensland at table tennis.
