Strathmore Cricket Union: the first 90 years a history 1928-2018
179 Dundee High School FP, who had been second in 2011, won the Premier League in 2012. The Dalnacraig side who had had a few unfortunate experiences in the National League were on top form throughout the season. Rossie Priory won the First Division, St Andrews University Staff the second while new ground was broken when Falkland XI won the Third Division, a League that was generally played on a Sunday and which was now, although no-one as yet used the term, a “development” League. Just after the 2012 season finished, the Union suffered its second severe loss with the passing, at the age of 88, of TomMcLeod, one of its Honorary Presidents. A member of the committee since 1971, Tom attended meetings for almost 40 years until his final illness took its toll. With his trademark tartan trews, Tom was a fixture at Union events, often being called upon to present the trophy at Cup Finals. His influence was felt throughout Scottish cricket during his period as SCU member for the North District and his was always a voice of innovation, consistency and reason.
