Darren Earp discusses his upcoming 300th game for BUCCC
Burwood Uniting Canterbury posted the following text about Darren Earp's 300th game on their Facebook Page:
'A Club legend, Darren has achieved it all on the field. As a batsman, he’s scored over 9,000 runs with 15 hundreds, most of those in the 1st XI. Some say he is getting better with age, evidenced by a career high score of 201 last season. He has also been very handy with the ball, with nearly 200 wickets at an average of 16 and a career best of 7/19 (also achieved last season).
It is team success Darren is most proud of though. Amongst his 3 Club premierships, Darren was the only player to play in both the 2000/01 and 2017/18 Burt Premiership Teams, a remarkable achievement. Off the field, Darren has served for long periods on the committee, primarily as apparel manager, and is famous for only ever bringing lamingtons for afternoon tea.'
