Collins officiated in 16 first-class matches, all of them at the Newlands Cricket Ground in Cape Town, between December 1939 and January 1961.[2] He and his brother Dal Collins officiated in several matches together, including Stanley's only Test match; it was the first time brothers had umpired a Test match together.[3][4]
