Noel McMahon
Noel Albert McMahon QSM (24 May 1916 – 9 June 2013) was a cricketer who played one match for New Zealand in the 1949-50 season.
McMahon played two matches for Auckland in the Plunket Shield in 1936-37 and 1937-38 as a leg-spinner without distinguishing himself, although he dismissed the Test batsmen Curly Page and Ian Cromb in his first match.〔(Canterbury v Auckland 1936-37 )〕 After serving overseas in the New Zealand Third Division in World War II he played most of his major cricket for Waikato in the Hawke Cup as a middle-order batsman. In 1948-49 he scored 138 in an innings victory over Bay of Plenty.〔(Bay of Plenty v Waikato 1948-49 )〕
He began 1949-50 by scoring 111 in a drawn match against Hutt Valley, reaching his century in 50 minutes and hitting 12 fours and eight sixes.〔(Hutt Valley v Waikato 1949-50 )〕 In Waikato's next match, a two-day fixture against the touring Australians, he scored 102 in 157 minutes (12 fours and three sixes) out of a team total of 157; the next best score was 15.〔(Waikato v Australians 1949-50 )〕 Given that he was 33 and had not played a first-class match for 12 years, his selection for the only match between New Zealand and the Australians three weeks later was unexpected. Even the Australians were surprised, as they had not taken the Waikato match very seriously.〔Joseph Romanos, ''John Reid: A Cricketing Life'', Hodder Moa Beckett, Auckland, 2000, pp. 241-42.〕 He made 0 and 12, bowled by Jack Iverson each time, and New Zealand narrowly avoided an innings defeat.〔(New Zealand v Australia 1949-50 )〕 He played a few more matches for Waikato in 1950-51 and 1951-52.
From 1966 to 1990 he organised an annual cricketers' golf day in aid of charity at the North Shore Golf Club in Auckland.〔Colin Thorsen, "McMahon enjoying his 'extended innings'", ''Te Awamutu Courier'', 27 June 2006, pp. 16-17.〕 He was awarded the Queen's Service Medal for Community Service in the 1995 Birthday Honours.〔(The Queen's Birthday Honours List 1995 )〕
