Passing of Nigel Cowan Snr

The Moonee Valley Cricket Club offers its condolences to the family of Nigel Cowan Snr, after he passed away this month.
Nigel was a member of our Executive as Secretary in 2018/19, after serving on the general committee in the previous season.
His son Nigel Junior, now using the preferred name Ashley, played 46 games for Moonee Valley across both winter and summer seasons, commencing in 2017.

Nigel Snr had a vast knowledge of cricket, having umpired in the Victorian Turf Cricket Association across many seasons and spending time as the VTCA Umpires' Adviser.
Even after Ashley moved on to other clubs, Nigel Snr stayed in touch with Moonee Valley and closely followed our fortunes.
Vale Nigel Cowan Snr.
