A word from the President

I hope you are all ready for Opening day.

Congratulations to Glenn Farrell on returning as the club coach and first 9 manager.  Alan Sutherland is managing the second 9, Daniel Benson managing the 3s, Paul M Clarke managing the 4s and Andrew Malthouse is managing the 5s.

Thanks to our Scorers who sit in the cold each week and keep a record of the game. Kim Malthouse, Claire Schmierer and Paula Sutherland.

Unfortunately, we have lost Stuart White as a player and manager, however, I am very pleased that Stu has agreed to Umpire every home game for whatever grade needs it. Thanks for consistent work Stu.

I am very proud of the fact we can now put up a full team (and a bit) in the seniors that came from our Junior program. This is a real testament to the work of Andrew Malthouse and crew over the years with consistency and perseverance to grow our Junior program.

As a result, this year is the first year we could have stand alone teams in all junior grades. We will be taking some players from other clubs and forming combined sides to support the Junior comp. This too is a great feat for the program.

We also have a great canteen looked after by Jane McMillian, Teresa Cavaliere-Doria, Sharon Hall and a band of other who help out from time to time. Without you, we would go hungry.

We have continued support from The Australian Lamb company, Cornerstone staffing and Nicholson Real estate. Your ongoing support is truly appreciated.

Last but not least our committee, Andrew Malthouse, Stuart White, Paul M Clarke, Danielle Sen, Cath Shelley, Darren Verrall, Bruce Barnes. Each of you put in over and over to keep our club a great place. Thanks for doing it all again.

Alan.
