Britt's father, Les was well-known district cricketer. As a junior Britt played both football and cricket, and in 1926 he achieved recognition when he took 7 for 26 for Doncaster Heights Cricket Club at the age of fifteen.[2] He gave up football in 1933 before debuting for Collingwood Cricket Club in 1934. He was described as a hostile opening swing bowler and also a capable bat and talented point or slips fielder.[3] In late 1935 he was mentioned as a potential state player for Victoria described as a dangerous venomous bowler,[4] and in December he was named in the Victorian XI.[5]
