Brocklesby Park Cricket Club

Bowling: Right-arm seam

Occupation: Professional, 1882 season. Later groundsman with Benwell Hill

Biography: A native of Notts, his first engagement was with the Preston Club, where he stayed for three seasons, and did good work with the ball for that well-known Lancashire team. From Preston he went to Brocklesby Hall in Lincolnshire, where he stayed for a season. In 1883 Galashiels introduced him to Scottish cricket, and he soon earned for himself a reputation among the clubs in the south-east of Scotland as a most promising young professional. His bowling average for that year was 6.7. In the following season he was re-engaged by the Gala Club, but in the succeeding year-1885, he transferred his services to the Lasswade Club, at that time a very powerful combination of gentleman players in Midlothian. Hawick and Wilton being in want of a prof. for 1886 they approached Hutsby, the result being that he accepted the offers made. 50 Years' Cricket in Hawick, James Edgar (1910)
