Jack Charlesworth was a rugged, strongly built, old fashioned stay-at-home type of centreman who was a key member of Cananore’s powerful 1920s combinations which landed both local and state premierships in 1921-2 and 1925-6-7. He played a total of 196 games for the Canaries, and was a regular TFL and state representative, including games at both the 1924 Hobart and 1927 Melbourne carnivals. After he retired as a player he was made a life member of the club.
