Fielder Medal
The Fielder Medal is awarded each year to the player who has received the most points across all grades based on the following points structure:
Batting
- 1 point for each run scored
Bowling
- 15 points for an unassisted wicket (bowled, LBW, hit wicket)
- 10 points for an assisted wicket (caught, stumped)
Fielding
- 5 points per catch or stumping
- 10 points per fieldsmen for an assisted run out
- 20 points for an unassisted run out
From 1994/95 to 2004/05 the award was known as the Cricketer of the Year. From 2005/06 it was renamed the Fielder Medal in recognition of the Fielder family’s on and off field contributions to the club. The five Fielder brothers – Gordon, Robert, Arthur, Richard and Beau – represented the club in 910 games starting with Robert in 1971/72 through to Richard’s last game in the 2018/19 season.
Daniel Fielder (Richard’s son) has continued on the family tradition having represented the club 173 times to the end of the 2022/23 season.
