The annual Gilbert Lamb Fun Day is named after a long-time president and member of St. David's County Cricket Club.

A fisherman by trade, Gilbert Lamb made his own fish pots from spice tree branches, chicken wire and fish nets.

He was known throughout St. David's as a hard, but fair man who youngsters frequently turned to for advice.

Mr. Lamb and other members worked hard to build the club. And with cricket recognised as a 'gentleman's game', he insisted players had to be sorted by attitude and the appropriateness of their uniforms.

He was a no-nonsense man, who believed in respect. Persons entering the club were not allowed entry if they were wearing a hat; fines were given to those caught swearing. Mr. Lamb took an equally serious approach to philanthropy – the club had many Christmas charity drives to help the less fortunate.

The Good Friday celebration was named in his honour in the late 1980s while Arthur (Cracker) Minors was president. Since then the Gilbert Lamb Fun Day has grown in popularity.
