Stumps called for Basin Reserve groundsman Wes Armstrong

Reporter Community News

Do you remember Wes Armstrong at the Basin Reserve?
The name Wes Armstrong will forever be linked with Wellington’s Basin Reserve.
The 88 year-old died last week and his life will be celebrated with a service at the Poneke Rugby Club on Tuesday.
Armstrong spent 22 years tending his beloved Basin Reserve wicket and in an era where groundsmen ruled the roost, he was very much his own boss.
