With 100 first-class hundreds, 50 England Caps and a Test batting average better than Colin Cowdrey and Tom Graveney, DENNIS AMISS MBE ranks amongst the greats of the game. Joining the Warwickshire playing staff as a 15-year-old in 1958, he retired as a player almost thirty years later in 1987. He then turned to the administrative side, serving as Chief Executive at Edgbaston for seventeen years and Vice Chairman of the ECB for four. It wasn’t until 2011 that he finally retired, after an astonishing seven decades. Starting as a player for the England U19 XI in 1969 and 1970, JAMES GRAHAM-BROWN had an eight-year playing career with Kent and Derbyshire before becoming a teacher. After retiring as headmaster of the Royal High School, Bath, he has made his mark as a playwright specialising in sporting dramas.
