Heinrich Christian Schrader (5 December 1893 – 10 June 1980) was an Australian sportsman who played first-class cricket for Victoria and Australian rules football in the Victorian Football League (VFL) with University.

Career

A Xavier College recruit, Schrader appeared in 13 games and kicked four goals for University in the 1914 VFL season but failed to play in a winning side all year.

Much later, in 1930, Schrader made his first-class cricket debut when he was picked as a right-arm medium pace bowler to take on Tasmania at the MCG. He took three wickets in the match and made 42 with the bat, despite coming in at number 11.[1]

His second and only other first-class match came a year later against both the same opponents and on the same ground. Schrader took two wickets, including that of fellow dual VFL and cricket representative Laurie Nash.[2]

He played for Prahran Cricket Club, and was made life member in 1938.[3]

Family

He was a son of musician Hermann T. Schrader, and served overseas during World War I as an Infantry Captain in the 1st AIF; briefly as Major. He married Violette Beatrice Kerr c. 1920.
