Backroom Legends
Throughout Carlton’s 160 plus year history, there have been many legendary players who have excelled on the field of play.
But the club has also benefited from the contributions of a number of legendary figures beyond the field of play. This part of the website celebrates them. Without their hard work and commitment, Carlton would not be what we know today.
NL Stevenson
The driving force for the club for the first half of the 20th century, he captained the 1st XI for 29 years between 1902 and 1948. The first Honorary Life President from 1958-67.
Margaret Masterson
A great benefactor of the club and Honorary Life President from 1968-88.
Alun Davies
A stalwart of the club on and off the field from the 1960s onwards. Captain of the 1st XI from 1964-76; Club President from 1986-94; Honorary Life President from 1995-2019.
Jimmy Jappy
First elected to the Council in 1947, he held virtually ever office at the club over the next 33 years and worked tirelessly around the club.
Alasdair Mcleod
Legendary volunteer for the club first as Bar Convenor and then working on the ground. Head Groundsman for many years preparing some of the best cricket wickets in the country.
Brian Forrester
Another legendary volunteer. Membership Secretary for decades and can regularly be found working to keep Grange Loan looking the picture it is today.

Living Legends
There are of course a number of players still playing who have turned out on more than 100 occasions and their continuing service gives great continuity and experience to the club.
