About Charles Chadwick

Lived 1880 – 1942 (aged 62). Charles Chadwick was a New Zealand cricketer.

Charles Sydney Chadwick (1 March 1880 – 30 October 1942) was a New Zealand cricketer. He played sixteen first-class matches for Otago between the 1912–13 and 1924–25 seasons.

Charlie Chadwick was born at Dunedin in 1880. He played club cricket for the Grange club in the city and played his first match for Otago in 1899 against Southland, but did not make his first-class debut until December 1912 in a match against Canterbury. Playing as the side's wicket-keeper, he recorded a duck in his first innings before scoring eight runs in his second. He played in each of the following two seasons, once in 1913–14 ― top-scoring with 71 not out against Canterbury ― and in three of Otago's four matches during the 1914–15 season.

After serving in the Otago Infantry Regiment during World War I, including overseas from early 1917, Chadwick resumed his cricket career in the 1919–20 season, again playing in three of Otago's four matches. He played in each of the following five seasons and made a total of 16 first-class appearances for Otago. He scored 235 runs and was involved in 28 dismissals.
