Some Famous People called Sidney Cope
Sidney Cope
Sidney Alfred Cope (12 August 1904 – 14 April 1986) was an English professional cricketer.
Cope was born at Hastings in Sussex, the son of Herbert and Eleanor Cope. His father was a railway porter. Cope played for Kent County Cricket Club's Second XI in 1924 and 1925. After impressing with 12 wickets against Bedfordshire in his third match for the side, he was employed at the club's Tonbridge Nursery.
He made one first-class cricket appearance for the county's First XI against Gloucestershire in the 1924 County Championship at Mote Park, Maidstone, taking one wicket. He was Kent's leading Second XI wicket-taker in 1924, with 32, but played only four times the following season and was released from the Nursery at the end of 1925. He was later given a trial at Warwickshire but was considered "temperamentally unsuited to a cricket career" by the county.
Cope died at Dartford in Kent in 1986 aged 81.
