Born at Kensington in London in 1864,[2] Vallange spent a few years in Dunedin during the 1880s. He played club cricket for Carisbrook and rugby union for Pirates FC whilst in the city, serving on the Carisbrook committee.[3][4]
Vallange played in an Otago team of 22 against the touring Australian side in November 1886, top-scoring for Otago with 18 runs in the team's first innings―the only batsman to reach double figures.[5][6][7] Later in the season he played in Otago's only first-class match of the season. Playing against Canterbury, he scored 21 runs in the first innings and nine in the second.[8]
In 1886 Vallange also played at fullback for the Otago Rugby Football Union representative side against Canterbury.[9] Two years later he played for Otago against the touring British side led by Andrew Stoddart.[10]
Vallange later studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh, qualifying as a doctor in 1894. He practised in London [11] and died at Southwark in the city in February 1924.[5] He was aged 59.
