The 1963 season has become the latest to have all its scorecards uploaded online. David Sincock from South Australia was Accrington's professional for 1963. 20 year-old Sincock was a left arm spin bowler who would go on to play 3 Tests for Australia. Although a big spinner of the ball, Sincock's control was disappointing and he only took 51 wickets at 16.3 each. He also scored 487 runs at 22.1. The club had decided on a policy of promoting promising young players into the 1st team if they performed well in the 2nds and several of these were coming to the fore. David Lloyd established himself in the side as an opening batsman, scoring 276 runs, Lindon Dewhurst junior scored 298 runs and David Taylor 192. Eddie Robinson took 45 wickets and medium fast bowler Neville Richardson emerged with 29 wickets. Accrington finished the season in 5th place in the league.
