He was born in Neath, Glamorgan. In a career which lasted 22 years, Whittington was to prove a crucial figure in the history of Glamorgan County Cricket Club, with his influence within the MCC gaining them elevation from a Minor county to a first-class county and entry to the County Championship, a position they retain to this day.〔〔 ==Early career== Whittington made his debut Glamorgan in the 1901 Minor Counties Championship against Devon.
