Synopsis "Bernard Hedges: The Player From 'ponty' (Cricket in Wales) (in English)"
The Player From 'Ponty' is the biography of Bernard Hedges, the talented sportsman from the valleys of south Wales. Hedges played rugby for Pontypridd and Swansea, represented a Great Britain side at football, and became a widely respected professional cricketer with Glamorgan between 1950 and 1967 who: · Scored 17, 773 first-class runs - Glamorgan's 7th all-time top run scorer. · Hit Glamorgan's first one-day century, v Somerset in 1963, in the Gillette Cup. · Is one of only six Glamorgan players to score 2,000 runs in a season - 2,026 in 1961. Bernard's journey from his early days in Rhydyfelin – the eldest of eight children raised in a small council house – to the local grammar school, his National Service days, and to his professional career with Glamorgan is lovingly revealed by his son Stephen, who tells the story of a man who epitomised sport's 'unsung hero' by showing great grit and determination to make the most of the sporting talent he had.
