He played in six first-class cricket matches between 1905 and 1912.[1] Early life and educationSnowden was born at Broadstairs in Kent, the oldest child of Augusta and the Reverend Harcourt Snowden.[2] His father ran Hildersham House school, a private school for boys in Broadstairs, and Snowden attended the school before moving to Rugby School aged 13. He played cricket for the school First XI between 1901 and 1903 and was captain in his final year.[2][3] In October 1903 Snowden went up to Trinity College, Oxford, gaining a degree and, in 1910, a Masters degree. He became a school teacher at Hildersham House.[2] Cricket careerAfter playing successfully at school, Snowden made his first-class cricket debut in May 1905 for Oxford University against a Gentlemen of England side at the University Parks in Oxford.[2] He played three first-class matches for the University in 1905 but was not awarded a Blue.[3][4] After first appearing for the Kent County Cricket Club Second XI in 1908, he made three further first-class appearances in 1911 and 1912, once for Kent against the touring Indian side and twice for MCC.[4] He played for Kent Second XI between 1911 and 1914 in the Minor Counties Championship but was generally restricted to playing cricket during school holidays by his job.[2] He played occasional matches for teams such as Old Rugbeians, Free Foresters and Band of Brothers until the 1930s.[2] He was Kent's librarian towards the end of his life.[3] War serviceSnowden enlisted in the army in December 1915 as part of the Derby Scheme, initially as a Private in the Army Reserve. He passed a medical in December 1916 but was not posted until he was accepted into the Officer Training Corps in May 1918. He saw no active service and was demobilised in February 1919.[2] Family and later lifeSnowden married Molly Woodman at Pimlico in January 1913. The couple lived in Broadstairs where Snowden taught alongside his brother at Hildersham House. In 1915 his brother, Harcourt, was killed on active service in France and Snowden became Headmaster at the school. He died in May 1964 at his home in Canterbury aged 79.[2] References1. ^Arthur Snowden, CricInfo. Retrieved 2017-03-09. 2. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Lewis P (2014) For Kent and Country, pp.290–292.
