It was with a heavy heart that the Sydney University Cricket Club received the news of Richard Cowans passing on the 16th January 2026.
Richard ‘Richie’ Cowan became involved with the club when his son, Tom, first played for Sydney University, followed by his youngest son, Ed, in 1997-98. He has also had two grandsons represent Green Shield for the Club
He was a passionate supporter and benefactor of the club and a faithful spectator especially at University No.1 Oval. He always took a positive and encouraging interest in the club and in all our players.
He will be greatly missed but his influence will be everlasting.
