Career
Connor was a right-handed batsman and a right-arm fast-medium bowler. Connor left his home island of Anguilla in 1979 to pursue a cricketing career in England. Connor was signed by Buckinghamshire in 1979 and remained at the club for five years playing in the Minor Counties Championship.
Connor was eventually spotted by former Hampshire cricketer Charlie Knott who recommended him to Hampshire, who signed him for the 1984 season.
Connor made his first-class debut for Hampshire against Somerset. This was to the first of Connor"s 221 first-class matches for the club
The same year Connor made his List-A debut against Nottinghamshire in the John Player Special League. Connor would go on to play 300 one-day matches for the club
There was call for Connor being called up to the England one-day squad, but this never materialised.
Connor tasted success for a second time in the Benson and Hedges Cup, this time in 1992 when Hampshire beat Kent. Connor took a single wicket in the match, that of Mark Ealham. By this time Connor was something of a cult figure at the County Ground.
Connor took his best innings bowling figures during the 1996 County Championship.
In a match against Gloucestershire he took 9/38, this at a time when Malcolm Marshall had retired. Connor made his final first-class appearance for Hampshire in a County Championship match against Derbyshire in 1998, although that season he played just four first-class matches for the club
His final one-day appearance came on 13 September 1998 in an AXA Investment Managers League match against Worcestershire. Connor retired at the end of the 1998 season.
In total Connor took over 1,000 wickets for Hampshire.
Testament to Connor"s cult figure at the club, his benefit year raised £147,000. After retiring from cricket Connor returned to Anguilla. Connor currently works as a hotel masseur and a fitness coach, with a website calling him "the island"s most popular personal trainer".
At the Anguillan general election in April 2015 Connor was elected in District 7 - West End for the Anguilla United Front.
