JUNIORS
We are fielding 4 sides again (11's, 13's, 15's and 17's) this season. Juniors will also be attending specialised
training sessions throughout the season run by Steve Collins, which will concentrate on the finer details of the game
(eg how to get to the afternoon tea before Rossco)

EFTPOS
The club is in the process of installing an EFTPOS machine in bar this
season which will make paying your subs easier!!! We are hoping this
will be in soon.

NETS
Dave Lewis is in the process of repairing the holes in the nets, new
bigger mats and a flat bowling crease will be done soon. New matting is
also being investigated. A new portable net is also being made by Dave
Snr to enable us to have more centre wicket practice this season for all
grades.

BOWLING MACHINE
The club has obtained a grant from the government and has purchased a
bowling machine to replace the flagging Graham Burton in the nets. This is
available for use to any financial member of the club
(minors need adult supervision)

SUBS
Will remain the same as last season and Adrian Kemp (aka Nobby, Purple Wiggle)
will be looking after this. For those who owe from the previous 2 seasons will be chasing you
up and possibly posting your names here should you not do the right thing......
A stricter approach will be adhered to this season with financial
players given priority at selection and other events.

WATO
Most would be aware that Wato has been in The Netherlands during our
winter working as a stuntman, he has had a few injuries but will be fine
to play in round 2. Steve Collins will be able to assist anyone who is
looking for some coaching/assistance whilst Mike is away. Any other A-grade
player will also be able to assist although you probably shouldn't be asking Wazza
for batting tips.
