PRESIDENT’S REPORT by Paul Goldsmith

It was always going to be difficult to reach the heights of last season when the club was able

to celebrate winning the Club Championship, but we did exceptionally well again to finish

fifth, and only 78 points from first place. When I reflect on our achievements, an

overwhelming positive is that we continue to feature in semi-final games across many of the

grades. It’s a very positive indicator that the philosophy to focus on player development is the

right one. We were again very well represented in semi-finals but this year we were able to

convert this to a piece of silverware, winning arguably one of the best Limited Overs finals to

have ever been played in Sydney Premier Cricket. It was a day to savour, and who can forget

that last ball and the celebration that immediately followed. I’m sure more will be written in

Matty Halse’s First Grade report.

Somewhat disappointingly, the weather rolled in about mid-March and significantly disrupted

semi-final cricket. Unfortunately for our First and Third grade teams we were bundled out in

the first week without bowling a ball. The Fifth grade team got through to the second week

but were beaten by a strong St George team, and the Metropolitan Cup boys dominated all

year only to lose to Gordon in the grand final. I expect we’ll see more of the boys in the grade

teams in the years ahead. The women’s Second grade team also made the semi-finals only to

be knocked out due to the weather. The Poidevin-Gray team dominated the competition

rounds but unfortunately didn’t play their best cricket in the quarter-final and lost to Fairfield.

The Green Shield team were well coached and did a super job to make the semi-finals, only to

lose a tight game against the competition favourites Northern District. The future looks bright.

From an outsider’s perspective there seems to be a strong work ethic within the bulk of the

playing and coaching group that manifests itself in self-belief. This has resulted in winning

games that we shouldn’t have. We see evidence of a strong, positive culture: even when it is

extremely hot we still have very good numbers at training. I would encourage you to continue

to challenge each other and maintain the great culture that we have within the club.

It’s not every day that you say goodbye to 2 people who have collectively been involved in

the club for over 35 years, but this year we farewell Matty ‘Bunger’ Halse and Steve ‘Jack’

Small. Matty has been with the club since 1994 when he joined the Green Shield team and has

been a member of 5 premiership winning teams, a superb effort and reflection of his

contribution to the team, his ability and character. He leaves us as First grade captain, having

spent the last 12 years playing First grade. He was an outstanding leader and will be missed.

Matty, enjoy retirement and Saturday morning sleep-ins with the kids.

We also farewell Steve ‘Jack’ Small for the last time. We managed to get him to go around

again this last season and fittingly he got to share in some silverware. He has been integral to

the development of the First grade players and has helped them sustain the enormous self-

belief they now have. On behalf of the club I wish you well in retirement and thank you for

being a great mentor and coach.

Pat Cummins made his long awaited

against India

They don’t like to be recognised but I’d like to take the opportunity to thank all members of

the committee, including the Players’ Reps, for their hard work and dedication to making this

club a great place to be involved in. The club is very fortunate to have such a committed team

give up their time to make sure the players have everything they need to succeed. It was great

to be able to recognise Peter Hazard as Club Person of the Year for his hard work; he is

tireless in getting the job done and asks for nothing in return (except maybe that the beer is

cold). Financially we are very stable and will look to work with Penrith Council on

continuing to improve our facilities for the future.

A number of major infrastructure projects were completed this year and have made a big

difference to the player amenities and grounds. The new change rooms at Rance Oval look

fantastic and are a huge improvement on the old change area. No longer do players need to

mix with the locals drinking long necks from the bottle shop across the road. The irrigation

work at Howell Oval has had a very positive effect on the quality of the outfield and Brian has

it looking fantastic. We are very lucky that we have such a committed Council behind us who

are able to deliver these major projects.

Our many sponsors are noted throughout this report and on behalf of the club I would like to

thank them for their support. We are fortunate to have the backing of many local businesses

which makes the running of the club that much easier. Our on field success is in some way

due to the support of our sponsors. I look forward to continuing the relationship in the years

ahead.

The winter Academy program continues to be very successful with the feedback very positive

and nearly all of the young guys who are invited take up the offer. Again, we need to

recognise the huge effort Warren Buttigieg puts into the setup and running of the Academy,

his passion to see the young boys develop is infectious. We are now seeing the positive effects

flow through as these young boys develop into grade cricketers.

The Captain’s Lunch was again a success with Terry Alderman making the trip across the

Nullabor to join us and we certainly got our money’s worth. The organising committee of

Narelle Halse (deliberately first), Ron Halse, Rod Evans and Michael Wholohan delivered

once again. I’d also like to thank our tireless volunteers for giving their time so freely, and I’d

also like to recognise our head groundsman Brian Cameron for another great year. Howell

Oval finished 8th on averages which is a great effort given he also manages Rance Oval.

In closing I would also like to acknowledge the passing of Steven Gavin, a close friend to

many and a long-time player at our great club. He’s been lost to us too early and will be

remembered as a mate who enjoyed life.

Have a safe and enjoyable winter, I look forward to seeing all of you in late July for some

fitness work before another big season that promises more trophies in the cabinet.

As it’s footy season…………………….up the Eels.

THE CAPTAIN’S LUNCH by Narelle Halse

Our seventh Captain’s Lunch saw Terry Alderman join Trevor Bayliss and Steve Small as our

special guests and in the crowd were quite a few past Penrith players who see the day as an

opportunity for reunions.

Many sponsors attended and indeed were integral in the success of the day and a special

thanks goes to Penrith Light & Sound, Drummond Golf and Kingsgrove Sports.

Michael Wholohan once again was outstanding as our MC for the day.

CRICKET MANAGER’S REPORT by Ron Halse

The consistent on field performances of the previous season were again maintained through

2016/17. Although unable to go back-to-back in the Club Championship, we finished a

creditable 5th behind eventual winners, Northern District. The washed out round late in the

season vs Mosman cost us dearly.

First, Third and Fifth Grade, AW Green Shield and Poidevin-Gray Shield all had top-6

finishes with Colts being defeated in the final. The 4th grade team came agonisingly close

being tipped out of the top-6 by 0.02 points.

The highlight of the year was undoubtedly the 1st grade performance in becoming Limited

Overs Premiers. Having been one game away from a final berth in the previous 3 seasons, the

team went one better via a second last ball victory over Sutherland in the semi-final. What

was to follow in the final could not have been scripted any better, with the last ball victory

over neighbours Hawkesbury now part of the club’s history.

It was pleasing to note that the club finished 6th in the ‘Spirit of Cricket’ rankings which says

a lot about our culture. Indeed the 1st grade team was the highest ranked team in this regard

with PG’s finishing 2nd.

The Lou Benaud Cup was again staged at Bradman Oval, Bowral. Unfortunately the Panthers

were defeated by Parramatta. This event has now become a regular fixture on our calendar

and not only serves as a great trial match leading into the A.W. Green Shield series, but a look

back into the club’s past.

The continuation of the Penrith Cricket Academy under the guidance of Warren Buttigieg was

great to see and has become an important part of the club’s development program. It is now

providing a solid pathway for young players into the grade ranks.

The coaching structure of the club continues to strengthen and in Michael Wholohan, Warren

Buttigieg, Dale Turner, Kevin Geyer and Mick Sparkes we have a wealth of experience to

draw on and develop the young talent that exists in the Penrith area. Steve Small’s

contribution to the First Grade team over the past 4 years has been nothing short of

outstanding. Taking over after a bottom- of-the-table finish the previous season, the team has

missed the semi-finals only once and has reached the Limited Overs semi-finals every season,

culminating in the dramatic victory against Hawkesbury. ‘Jack’ has taken the team from a unit

that lost the close games, sometimes in ‘soft’ fashion, to a team that was almost unbeatable in

the close ones. But for the weather, the double was certainly on the table.

The improvement in our grounds was remarkable. I’ve not seen Howell look better for many

years, the underground watering system proving a great investment. Bill Ball Oval, after a

couple of poor years, is starting to emerge as the ground we used to know. Rance Oval has

maintained its presence as a very good lower grade ground. Congratulations to all the ground

staff and to Dave Hinkley who co-ordinated ground maintenance with great expertise.

Selections, as usual, proved at times to be a difficult and thankless task. However the selectors

generally were able to maintain ‘balanced’ teams and did a good job coping with the many

‘unavailables’. There is a lot of time devoted to sorting out 6 cricket teams week in week out,

and the selectors are to be commended for their efforts. One of the club’s strengths through its

history is the production of talented young cricketers and it’s important the selection process

maintains an appropriate pathway for them to develop.

I feel the progress of the club over the past 2-3 years has been outstanding and we are well

placed to take advantage of some hard work. The committee now has stability and an attitude

that is all about taking the club forward. The entire committee is hard working, none more so

than Dave Hinkley (grounds and equipment) and Warren Masters (who gets anything done we

need).

Cheers and good luck for 2017/18.

First Grade Limited Overs Premiers

If you were to look at the 2016/17 First grade season in its entirety it could be described as a

pretty good year. A pretty good season made great by an afternoon’s cricket played at Howell

Oval on the 26th of February 2017, but more on that later.

The season started well, in fact we got off to a flyer. With new recruits Ryan Gibson and

Michael Castle, coupled with the availability of our representative quicks Lalor and Cummins

and the unavailability of an ageing off spinner, one could argue we started the year with our

strongest possible side! And we played like it, accounting for Parramatta and UNSW in the

first two rounds (50-over matches) quite comfortably, before a somewhat tense win against

North Sydney in our first two-day game, due to some Justin Avendano brilliance. He seems to

save his best for Penrith each season.

Performances of note over the first three rounds included a treble of 60’s for Gibson, Sammut

and Pat Cummins and 2 wickets on debut for Luke Hodges against Parramatta. Against

UNSW Sammut backed up with 78 and this time Tim Cummins

made his way to 60 before Lalor and Pat took 3 wickets each. North Sydney saw a pair of

centurions in Johnny Di Bartolo and the in-form Jona Sammut. Luke Hodges contributed

what would prove to be a vital 36. This set the platform for an impressive score of 362. North

Sydney, to their credit, gave it a red hot crack with Avendano making a brilliant 190, before

Ryan Smith got his key wicket, as he so often does when the team needs him to. Luke Hodges

capped off a great game and a great start to First grade cricket by picking up two of the three

Aitken brothers late in the piece to extinguish the Bears hopes.

Round 4 saw the return of the ageing off spinner/captain from a family holiday. It also

coincided with a period of instability for the team. Michael Castle sustained a long term back

injury after a most promising start to his time at Penrith. Ryan Gibson departed for the

Matador Cup, and, along with Patty’s return to NSW colours and Josh Lalor’s involvement in

Futures League/2nd XI cricket, saw what had been a pretty stable team early on, change on an

almost weekly basis.

After winning three on the trot, we promptly lost the next three matches, which included a 9

wicket loss to Manly and an 8 wicket loss to Northern District. Wickets were hard to come by

and our batting was all of a sudden inconsistent after a strong start to the year. Individual

highlights through this period included a sublime 60 from Michael Collins when the team was

in trouble against the Randy Petes and another half century to the Howell Oval specialist,

Jona Sammut against NDs.

We went into Round 7 desperate for a win against the high flying Gordon. We lost the toss

and sometime after lunch we found ourselves up against it with Gordon reaching 3 for 179.

Enter Josh Lalor, who produced yet another inspired bowling performance at Howell Oval,

which was backed up by some smart catching to see Gordon dismissed for 265. Day 2 saw Di

Bartolo and Tommy Kohler-Cadmore put on 60 for the first wicket. The loss of two quick

wickets saw Jona join Tommy at the crease with plenty still to do. Over the next 3 hours the

lads put on 183 with Jona falling for an even 100, one run short of the target. Tommy posted

101* in an innings that lasted over four hours and some 249 balls. It was a brilliant innings of

sheer determination, as our much loved Pom had been struggling for runs up until this point in

his second stint at the club.

The last game before Christmas saw us take on our fierce rivals Bankstown in a one day

game. It proved a pivotal moment in the season. Not because we won, but in fact because we

lost….badly. All out for 130 after being 0 for 47 and passed 3 down, coughing up a bonus

point in the process. It was our worst performance as a team in recent memory, by far. After a

frank and honest assessment of our performance in the sheds immediately after the game, it

was time to work out where we wanted our season to go. We could hide behind the fact that

our team was constantly changing and we were often without some of our best players, or we

could come back after Christmas and give it a red hot crack with a view to making the finals

in the two day and one day format.

The first game after Christmas saw us easily account for a struggling Campbelltown, picking

up a bonus point in the process. It also saw Jordan Silk pop in for his annual game in between

Sydney Sixers duty, which always helps in putting a spring in the step of the guys who take

the field with him. This result also allowed us to qualify in 6th position for the one day

competition quarter-finals….but more on that later.

Round 9 saw us play another struggling side in Fairfield-Liverpool in a Saturday/Sunday

fixture. Batting first, half centuries to Ryan Hackney, Jake Wholohan and Jona Sammut saw

us post a competitive but unconvincing 284. Midway through the last session, not only did

our total look unconvincing but it was looking a little short of the mark. Fairfield had reached

5 for 252 and with the second new ball due it was well and truly the last roll of the dice.

Cometh the hour, cometh the man, it was time for the “Red Dog” Brenton Loudon to

announce himself as a First grade cricketer of promise. Brenton took 4 of the last 5 wickets as

we took an amazing 5 for 27 to pull yet another game out of the fire. I’ve lost count of the

number of times this side has come back from a seemingly impossible position over the last 3

to 4 years. It is born out of inner belief that we are never beaten until the last ball; always play

the game out as hard as possible, always be prepared to continue on even if beaten early in the

day. This attitude and belief would serve us well in the not too distant future.

The following match saw us lose to St George after a disappointing batting performance, a

brilliant five wicket haul from Ryan Smith having put us in the box seat. We wouldn’t have

long to dwell on this result as we had to back up on the Sunday for the Limited Overs quarter-

final against competition leaders Sydney Uni. But I’ll cover the one day finals later in the

report.

Round 11 was against local rivals Hawkesbury in another Saturday/Sunday two day fixture to

be played at Bensons Lane. On the back of a hot week and with temperatures forecast to be in

the low 40’s for both days, we were surprised to be greeted with a green, damp, softish

wicket. Upon winning the toss there was little hesitation in bowling first. Some quality

bowling, mixed with good catching led to Hawkesbury being dismissed for 115 in 37 overs,

Ryan Smith grabbing 5 and Josh Lalor 4. Some good batting from ‘Hackers’ and Matty

Hopkins with 60 each saw us finish the day 35 runs ahead. After a bit of discussion the next

morning the decision was made to declare straight away and have a crack at 10 points. Wicket

conditions had improved a bit but we still thought there would be enough in it provided we

bowled well. Once again ‘Bomber’and Josh stood up for is. Bomb picked up another 5 to

grab 10 for the match whilst Lalor picked up the big 3: Clarke, Nair and McKay. This set up

a run chase late in the day, 145 required to take the 10 points. Not even a brief storm could

stop us reaching the total after Johnny got us off to a flyer with 44 off 26 balls. Jona and

‘Hoppa’ saw us home, the 10 points entrenching us in the top 6. In other news which was to

have a massive bearing on our fortunes in a few weeks’ time, Michael Castle made his return

from his back injury in 2nd grade, plundering a better than a run-a-ball century

The next round was scheduled as a two day game against Easts, who were competing with us

for a top 6 berth. Bizarrely, day 1 was called off due to forecast extreme heat. Whilst it

seemed strange to call a game of cricket off because it was hot it did allow us to concentrate

on our Limited Overs semi-final the next day versus Sutherland at Caringbah….more on that

later. So given all grade cricket was called off Day 2 was rescheduled for a limited overs

fixture and saw Michael Castle make his long awaited return to the First grade side.

Ultimately, this game ended in a loss, but I also believe it was pivotal into how our season

finished up. Easts batted first and a couple of Test players in Peter Nevill and Sam Robson

saw Easts reach 1 for 191 with plenty of overs left. Again we fought hard and managed to

restrict them to a somewhat gettable target of 261. Still we were going to have to do a lot right

to get the runs. Unfortunately not much went right in the early part of the innings and we

slumped to 6 for 100. Timmy Cummins and I got to work, essentially looking to deprive Easts

of a bonus point and got a small partnership going. Then, ironically, it rained, and rained for a

good hour or so. Upon resumption, everyone’s good friend Duckworth & Lewis had come to

the conclusion that despite losing 5 overs, our target was only to reduce by 6 runs. If that was

not enough, it was dark, really dark. Timmy and I headed out and slowly got our partnership

going. The light got better but the run rate had blown out to about 10 runs per over. It was

now or never and once again we rolled the dice. Some smart batting mixed with blatant

slogging from Tim (67 off 66 balls) and me (70 off 60 balls), plus a cameo from Micky

Collins, ultimately saw us fall one run short of our target. In the immediate aftermath the loss

hurt but again we took a valuable lesson away: we had backed ourselves in from an

improbable position and gone within a whisker of an unlikely victory. More importantly,

Michael Castle had come through unscathed and bowled 10 pretty tidy overs for us.

Round 14 saw us take on Mosman with the Limited Overs final scheduled on the Sunday after

the first day. Jake Wholohan snared 5 wickets to see Mosman bowled out for 194. We

finished the day at 1 for 58 and left the ground with a spring in our steps, ready for the final

the next day. And then it rained, and rained, and rained…..but more on that later.

Ultimately Day 2 of the Mosman game was washed out; it was the beginning of a very wet

period of weather in Sydney over the course of the next few weeks. This left us needing to

beat Sydney at Drummoyne Oval to guarantee ourselves a place in the finals. Sydney was

sitting 3rd, so we were going to need to be somewhere near our best.

We won the toss batted and got away to a flyer, Johnny (44 off 39) and Ryan Gibson (75 off

66) had us on track for 300 plus at one stage. We lost our way however and were bowled out

for 217, using only 39 of our 50 allotted overs. Disappointing, but definitely a score we could

defend. Early wickets to Josh and Bomber plus a brilliant run out from Ryan Hackney had us

on top. Sydney fought back through some good partnerships, which coupled with a dislocated

thumb to Josh Lalor, had us under the pump. In the end we held our nerve. We were off to the

finals…or so we thought.

Scheduled to play the eventual champs, Sydney Uni, the heavens opened up during the week

and it rained and rained and rained. Whilst we turned up Saturday and Sunday, pretty early on

we knew we were sunk … literally. A pretty disappointing way to exit, but we finished 6th,

which was a fair indication of our season. As the lower ranked side weather is never your

friend. Softening the blow was the Limited Overs title already in our back pocket. We shook

hands early Sunday morning which left us plenty of time to reflect over a few quiet ales at the

Lapstone Hotel.

Which takes me back to the three games of our season that would ultimately define it; I have

saved the best for last.

In the quarter-final of the Limited Overs we faced a pretty tough assignment in Sydney Uni.

The quirks of the draw saw them at full strength except for Ed Cowan. We won the toss and

decided to post a score and defend. Our innings never really kicked off, Devlin Malone

destroyed us through the middle overs. We scrapped our way to 165 and whilst the outfield

was heavy, against the Uni line up you could write your own ticket. Up against it, we took the

attitude that if we were to be beaten, we would make them work bloody hard for it. Over the

next 45 overs, we played near perfect, defend-a-score cricket. There was not a weak link in

the bowling or fielding. We pressured a quality side into mistake after mistake and took the

opportunities when they came. In the end we won comfortably, knocking Sydney Uni over for

136. At the time one of the best wins I had played in.

Two Sundays later we were away to Sutherland at Caringhbah. Only one change to the team,

Pat Cummins in for the unlucky Michael Collins who had been brilliant against Sydney Uni.

Sutherland won the toss and elected to bat, getting off to a slow start, content to see Cummins

and Lalor off early. A consistent bowling effort saw us bowl Sutherland out in the last over

for 228. We took the last 4 wickets for 31 runs, crucial against a team with a very dangerous

lower order. A competitive score in a semi-final but on a good wicket and fast outfield we

were confident. After a solid start we lost our way in the middle order and soon found

ourselves 6 for 129. Crucially Gibbo was still in and was keeping the run rate in hand.

Unfortunately Gibbo fell for a beautifully compiled 80 leaving us 49 runs short with 2 wickets

in hand and the run rate just above a run a ball. Josh Lalor is known for being rocks or

diamonds with the bat; we were going to need the latter and boy, did he deliver. Josh

proceeded to put on a clinic of death batting, managing the run rate and putting pressure back

on the Sutherland bowlers. He was ably supported by Luke Hodges, sharing a 46 run stand.

When ‘Hodgey’ got knocked over 4 runs short of victory, there were some nervous flutters,

however Josh and Bomber steered us home with a ball to spare. Jubilant scenes, we were off

to the grand final. Word soon filtered through that Hawkesbury had knocked off the Randy

Petes; even better, a home grand final!

Heavy overnight rain the night before the final inspired what was a fairly common scene at

Howell Oval: early that Sunday morning the super soppers were trudging away around the

square, the bowler’s run-ups a particular concern. Not for the first time some industrial

blowers were sourced from Kennards Hire, as there was real concern about whether we would

get the ground up for a game. This only added to the tension of the day. Finally after a lot of

hard work by Brian Cameron and a swarm of players and volunteers, the umpires decided the

ground was good enough to go. The match had been reduced to 35 overs. Only one change

from the semi-final, Michael Castle was back in the side after some strong performances,

young Hackers was the unlucky one to make way.

We won the toss and batted and got away to a good start. Johnny was his usual aggressive

self, with Castle playing a steady hand. After Johnny and Mick departed, we were 2 for 101

and our run rate was strong. However, as the ball softened it became hard to score, the wicket

was on the slow side after being under covers for so long, and, the outfield was extremely

heavy. Some scrappy batting through the middle to lower order saw us reach 181 off our 35

overs, but certainly a score we could use to apply pressure. Hawkesbury boasted a very strong

batting line up and had chased runs well all season but … chasing a score in their first ever

First grade final … we knew the nerves would kick in at some point.

There were no nerves on display early, with Gaucci and Clarke putting on 50 for the first

wicket before Hodgey claimed Clarke. Dale McKay entered and unfortunately they continued

on their merry way. We were our own worst enemy at times, missing some chances that we

would normally take. They cruised along to 1 for 139, and although we had just delivered a

few tight overs, there was no real run rate pressure on. We needed wickets, and fast. Enter

Michael Castle, whose cagey left arm medium pace produced one of the most devastating

spells of one day bowling you could ever hope to see. At one stage he picked up 5 wickets in

8 balls which included a 3 wicket maiden over. With Patty Cummins closing out the other end

and bowling terrifyingly quick, the pendulum swung very hard back in our favour. To

Hawkesbury’s credit, they hung in there and we could not quite deliver the final blow. It came

down to the last over, bowled by Pat, and the final ball, which I think everyone has seen over

and over again on social media or the internet.

Needing two to tie, Lawrence hit a wide yorker out to Hodgey at deep point, right in front of

our large and incredible supporter base. Hodgey coolly picked it up and fired a bounce throw

into Timmy Cummins, who equally calmly waited for it to hit the gloves before whipping the

bails off. Cue pandemonium! We were mobbed by our supporters who had been loud and in

our corner all day. We had just taken 9 for 41 to win by a run, a phenomenal achievement.

Whilst some cynics may say it was a fluke, or, Hawkesbury took the gas, I believe this result

was born out of years of playing hard, tough cricket down to the very last ball no matter the

result. A team does not win as many close games as this side has over the years by accident

and this was highlighted throughout the finals campaign, culminating in a premiership. This

was no fluke; we have been knocking on the door for quite a few years consistently making

the final of both competitions. I am sure some in Sydney had written us off as chokers after

some disappointing semi-final losses, however, we had well and truly shed that tag over the

last 3 games of finals cricket. Michael Castle was the deserved man of the match but everyone

in the 11 had contributed, as well as Micky Collins and Ryan Hackney who had played their

part in the finals series.

A great game was followed by a great night and to their credit the Hawkesbury boys joined us

for a few beers. At various points it seemed like the entire club was in the dressing rooms with

a plus one! As I think back over the night, I remember feeling a massive sense of relief. Relief

that we had done it for ourselves, our club mates and the club but also that we had delivered a

premiership to three of the best and most loyal men you could ever want in your corner. Jack,

Ronny and Scorch started this climb (I hate the word journey) with us 5 years ago and have

never wavered in their support and belief, through good times and some not so good. To be

able to share this with them made it all the more special.

This season was all about the team/squad not anyone individual or performance. Invariably

there were some fine individual achievements along the way.

Ryan Gibson returned to the club this season and along the way dominated the Matador Cup

for the CAXI and ultimately earned a baggy blue cap.

Patty Cummins played quite a bit of cricket this season for Penrith which is always great, but

even better was to see him rise back through the ranks. Only a few weeks after bowling the

death over in the final he was playing Test cricket again in India, just reward for a guy who

has shown remarkable patience and dedication to get back to the top of the tree.

Ryan Hackney continued his development as a First grade opening batsman this season.

Along the one way he dominated the Australian Under 19s carnival and was selected for the

Aussie Under 19s team.

Luke Hodges played the majority of the season in First grade after finishing the season before

in Third grade. ‘Hodgey’ is a tough, no frills type of cricketer who delivered for us in some

key moments this year. He will have gained so much from this season.

Jona Sammut started the season like a house on fire, batting audaciously at times. The back

half of his season unfortunately dropped off but if he can put the two halves of a season

together next year, he could become a dominant First grade batsman.

Johnny Di Bartolo was his usual belligerent self at the top of the order but the highlight for

me this year was his fielding. Johnny took some of the best catches in the gully that you could

ever hope to see and this often helped turn games for us.

Michael Castle had a frustrating but ultimately rewarding first season for the club. He very

quickly became a popular member of the club and is a strong leader on the training paddock

for the entire club.

Jake Wholohan continued his development as an off spinning all-rounder scoring some vital

runs at times and taking some key wickets. His season will be forever remembered for wildly

running around in a circle, hands and hat aloft after the final ball of the final.

Micky Collins had another solid season in First grade and was particularly strong in the one

day format for us. Some more work on his batting could easily see him develop into a very

handy bowling all-rounder.

Matty Hopkins had a frustrating year being dropped to Second grade mid-way through the

season. Hoppa responded in brilliant fashion scoring a truckload of runs in Twos and earned a

recall at the back end of the season.

Tommy Kohler-Cadmore had a quiet second season at the club but still managed a match

winning innings for us before returning home early through injury. He even caught a few this

season in the slips!

Timmy Cummins captained the team in my absence and is always a calm head on the field.

Not as many runs as he would have liked this season but played some crucial innings for us at

various points.

Ryan Smith was rewarded for years of hard work, dedication and quality bowling with a call

up to the ACT Comets Futures League team, most deserved for a guy who always stands up

when the team most needs him to.

A frustrating year on the rep scene for Josh Lalor mainly due to injury, however, whenever he

got on the park for Penrith he was invariably brilliant. He’s been a consistent match winner

and whole-hearted performer for Penrith over a long period, so a premiership was a fitting

reward.

There were others that played their part, but this was the core group of guys who played First

grade. Of course, it is not just about the players. To our loyal band of

supporters/parents/wives/girlfriends/children, a massive thanks. Too many to name

individually but thank you for your support and assistance in the canteen and with afternoon

teas. I hope the team gave you guys some life long memories along the way, along with some

heart flutters.

To Paul Goldsmith and the committee, thank you for your hard work for the club and support

of the First grade side. Big thanks to Pete and Wanda Hazard for all you guys do. To

independent selectors Warren Buttigieg and Rod Evans thanks for undertaking that

‘thankless’ task! And for being very patient with some of my indecisiveness throughout the

season, a big thank you.

To our support staff, Jack, Ronnie, Scorch, Mick Wholohan , Kev Chevell, Dale Turner, Kev

Geyer and our scorer David Frede. Thank you for the part that you all played in this season. It

was a disappointing way to end the season but overall we can all be immensely proud of

winning a premiership. They are bloody hard to come by!

As most people are aware I’ve decided that now is the right time for me to move on as both a

player and as captain. I have been very fortunate to have had a long First grade career; there

were moments coming through the grades where I thought I would never play one game of

First grade. I have also had the good fortune to play alongside some fantastic cricketers and

even better people, and I have made many lifelong friends from my time at Penrith. It has

been an honour to lead a great group of guys over the last 5 years and to achieve some really

good results along the way, capped off by a premiership this season. I believe the team is in a

good position to chase more success with a good core group of senior players and a good mix

of talented youngsters. I will most certainly miss the competitive way we play cricket; the

spirit you guys display and the banter and friendship that is so unique to cricket. Whilst I

won’t be lost to the club, I do plan on spending a bit of time away from the game, exploring

what regular people do with their summer time weekends.

I’d like to sign off by thanking some people that have been instrumental in my cricket career.

To Steve Small, thank you for answering my call for you to become First grade coach 4 years

ago. You have had such a positive impact on this team and have really helped me along the

way. To Scorch, I think I am right in saying our association together in cricket started about

25 years ago. I have thoroughly enjoyed your company, advice and the odd glass of wine or

two with you over the years. You have always had my back and you are without doubt the

best manager going around. And my goodness you have nicked some cricket balls to me over

the years!

To my parents, who have been so supportive of me since I first played the game as a 9 year

old. Best of all they have always done it in a quiet, undemonstrative way. You have allowed

me to be my own person and make my own mistakes. Your support of not just me but this

club in general has been nothing short of outstanding. As I mentioned in the dressing rooms

after the our last game v Sydney Uni, as a young fella I used to head off to cricket for the day

with Dad who was playing lower grades at the time. Things have come full circle and for the

last few years Dad came to cricket with me. I can say with some certainty, he has been of way

more use to me, than I was to him all those years ago. It has been a lot of fun sharing it all

with you.

Lastly but certainly not least the biggest thank you of all goes to my beautiful wife Lauren.

Cricket can be a bloody selfish pursuit which gets magnified once children come along.

Lauren has been kind enough to indulge me with summers away from her for the last 15

years. The last 7 of those years have required her to look after the kids or drag them around

Sydney supporting me, and the team. Without the support of you and our beautiful girls it

would all feel rather empty. I look forward to spending our summers together at more

desirable venues than cricket grounds scattered over Sydney.

There are many others who have played small and big parts in my time at the club, however,

this report has been a bit self-indulgent as it is, so I will leave it at that. Penrith Cricket Club

has given me so much over the last 25 years; I hope to return in a few years’ time and start

giving back.

SECOND GRADE By Peter Betros

Peter Betros: enjoyed a 500-run summer, hopes others can too

Captaining this side is the highlight of my career thus far at Penrith. I enjoyed it thoroughly

and took pride in watching my men grow as players and people. I know that the club is in a

great position for the future based off my side alone. I would like to thank all of the playing

members for the past season and a special mention to a few people who made my job

particularly easy.

Firstly, to the lovely Lorraine who scored for us in all but one match this season, thank you

very much! Oh yeah, sorry for making you drive all the way to Mosman week two only to

find out that the match had been rained off. I owe you a drink or two.

Kevin Geyer, Dale Turner and Paul Goldsmith, who at one stage or another helped the team

with warm-ups at Howell, and, on one occasion DT and Goldy made the trip to North Sydney

to help put us through our paces and even provided lunch for us. You three are absolute

legends in my eyes and the club’s. Thank you.

Thanks to all parents and partners who helped with the teas and lunches this season.

Thanks also to ‘Butts’ and ‘Scorch’ for some very interesting selection meetings. Some

heated moments, which only proved the passion, and level at which these guys operated at in

ensuring the best teams took the park each round.

‘Morro’ senior - thanks for always making sure I had new prunes each week. ‘Prunes’ are

balls for those of you who do not understand cricketing terminology/banter.

Last but definitely not least, thanks to Peter Hazard. It must be the name mate because you

were huge for myself, the team and the club this season. Your efforts in every aspect of the

club this season definitely have not gone unnoticed. Thanks for everything you did for me

throughout the season Pete.

Now, enough of the thank-yous and well wishes … let’s jump back to reality. Putting it as

simply as possible the 2016/17 season was very much underwhelming for Penrith 2nd

grade.

The side we produced week in and week out on paper should have placed us in the top 3, but

sadly we didn’t even make the finals series.

For the 12(ish) seasons that I have played at PCC the same issue has occurred. We continue

to under perform with the bat. Not just in 2nd

grade but across all grades. A quick glance at

the season/career statistics proves my point entirely.

I was blessed with a plethora of bowling talent this season, which led to some first grade

quality bowlers playing 3rd

grade at stages this season. The bowling this season in 2nd

grade

was of the highest quality. Although, statistically it does not reflect such accolades I can

assure you batting teams felt the pinch when they played us.

Our fielding was a fraction off this season, and cost us the match against Fairfield where we

dropped six catches. I think overall the fielding needs to improve next season and that starts at

training. I am the first person to put my hand up and say I used the indoor centre a lot to

enhance my batting this season but I think I let my fielding go a fraction. As a team and club I

think we need to find that balance.

This brings me to my last point, batting. Some players like to hit one million balls in the

indoor centre, some players like ball machines, some players like outdoor throw downs etc. I

think we need to find a way to allow players to prepare whichever way they like to get the

best out of themselves with the bat. Naturally, bowlers at training are able to bowl as much as

they like in order to be best prepared for the upcoming match. I feel we need to try and have

that feel for our batsmen.

Potentially having top six batters having longer hits in the outdoor nets? I know even an extra

3 minutes would make a huge difference. Teams who are batting week two in two-day

matches having extra hits in the outdoor nets? I am no coach but I do believe that batting has

definitely been 2nd grade’s problem the past few seasons and we need to find a way to stop

the trend of players averaging 20 at our club.

I hope I haven’t stepped on anyone’s toes here, I just think we can do so much better in this

aspect of our game. The potential in our young playing members and the magnificent training

facilities we have at Howell we should expect to see better batting results. I hope that we can

find a way to get the best out of our batsmen in the coming seasons.

Matthew Hopkins – ‘Hoppa’ killed it this season in Second grade, 316 runs at an average of

105. Too good for Second grade. Next.

Andrew Hazard – ‘Haz’ had a great breakout second grade season. Close to 300 runs at an

average of 30 with the bat. Gave it his all in field and with the ball. Haz’s work ethic with the

bat at training is exceptional but I think he needs to make sure he keeps working with DT on

his bowling. Keep setting the bar high. Great season Haz.

Brent Williams – ‘Squirt’ is the type of player you want in your team. He plays at 110%

every week and is great to have around the team. He would be the first to tell you he under

performed with the bat this season. Averaging 25 for a bloke with Squirt’s technique and

aggression is not good enough. I may seem a little harsh but he is a much better player than

second grade. He must make sure he doesn’t forget about his bowling either which proved

very handy in the one dayers this season. Squirt was hands down the best fielder for us.

Adam Bayliss – ‘Trev’ had a decent season for us this season. He needs to make sure he

maintains that all rounder status. As a player who wants to move forward and eventually into

First grade I think he needs to become a middle-order bully. Trev can hit the ball extremely

hard, I want to see more of it!

Ryan Hackney – Hackers played the majority of the season in the top grade and rightly so.

Too good for Second grade. Let’s hope the club hangs onto this little weapon. Provided he

fixes up his hair and his banter because holding a conversation with him is hard work.

Cameron Weir – ‘Weiry’, in racing terms a $1.10 favourite beaten every week! The big fella

knows he didn’t have a great Second’s season but we all know how talented he is, highlighted

by a remarkable season in PG’s, which boasted three centuries! He also scored a lovely half

century against Hawkesbury in a First grade 20/20. Keep working hard Weiry and get back

up into the top grade.

Tyran Liddiard – ‘Lidds’ had a great season behind the stumps for us. He even made his

20/20 debut for 1st grade and kept beautifully. I think Lidds could be a dominating, hard-

hitting, keeper batsmen in the not too distant future. He finishes off innings beautifully with

his running between wickets but I believe, as he gets stronger he could be one of the hardest

hitters in the club.

Kaine Balgowan – ‘Kaineo’ was the leading wicket taker for Second grade this season. He

started off the season slowly but really turned it around when he was dropped to Third grade

for one match. He came back a determined bowler and would bowl all day for me from one

end. Never complained about which end I made him bowl from but constantly whinged when

I said, “have a spell mate”. A workhorse that I loved having in my team.

Jacob New – ‘Newy’ started the season remarkably with the ball and was our leading wicket

taker for the first third of the season. Newy was most annoyed about his batting and rightly

so. He is a far better player with the bat than his statistics show. Keep working hard on ALL

aspects of your game Newy. Genuine all rounder.

Luke Hodges – ‘Hodgey’ only played a handful of Second grade matches with me as he

played the majority of the season in the top grade. A long First grade career awaits, Hodgey.

Jarrah Ferris-Smith – Jarrah didn’t perform how he would have liked for me in Second

grade this season. A beautiful 35 against NDs who boasted the best bowling attack we faced

this season indicated that Second grade should be his bread and butter. Great having him back

at the club.

Maxwell McNamara – Maxy. ‘China’. What a guy. When he wasn’t talking about his six-

figure income Maxy was the pick of the bowlers for me this season. Twenty wickets at an

average of 12 is the proof. Hoping Maxy can get back up in the top grade where he belongs.

Michael Collins – ‘Collo’ also only played a handful of matches for me. He would bowl all

day if I asked him and proved this season that First grade is where he should be.

Brenton Loudon – ‘Loudo’ swings the ball both ways and can push them through on his day.

My only criticism of Loudo is that he failed to produce that pace consistently. I would be

frightened to see how he would go with a big pre-season under his belt with Kevy Chev! First

grade debut this season where he took a match winning ‘four fa’. The top grade awaits.

Ryan Fletcher – ‘Fletch’ is awesome. He bowls a beautiful inswinger and is incredibly

accurate. Once he develops a little more and becomes stronger he will no doubt play First

grade cricket. The slowest runner I have ever seen!

Shannon Finemore – ‘Shan’ joined us for a couple of games this season and won the match

for us against St George with the ball. I hope Shan continues to bowl in whatever grade he

plays next season. The club is in a much better place when Shan is around.

Max McNamara: ‘China’ has the experience, and the strikepower, to give Ones a shake again

THIRD GRADE by Peter Gregersen

I’d like to begin by congratulating Matthew Halse on a wonderful career and particularly on

leading the team to win the final of the First grade Limited Overs competition. It was quite a

day from what I’m told.

This was my first season as captain of a team and it was really enjoyable. It could have easily

ended with a premiership but it wasn't to be with weather conspiring against us come semi-

final time. We had a great start to the season, in first place at the Christmas break, a great

effort reflecting very positive team performances. We had developed a nice chemistry which

made my job so much more enjoyable.Unfortunately, the Christmas break didn’t do us any

favours (I did enjoy some nice salads though) and I think we left our bats at home in the back

yard.

Our poor batting was the primary reason we didn't finish in the top 3 and eventually led us to

being knocked out due to poor weather in the quarter final. I’d like to thank all the players

who played Thirds for making this season a very enjoyable one. I hope you young guys learnt

a bit about cricket and your own games in particular; keep setting yourself high goals and

chase higher grade selection.

To the broader club I’d like to offer my congratulations on what was a very good season;

almost achieving consecutive Club Championships is serious stuff. Success is built both on

and off the field and not just by the players, it takes the entire club to get involved to build a

winning culture.

To the New family, Pete Hazard and Mick Sparkes, thank you so much for your hard work

and support, it made my job so much easier. I’d also like to thank all players who helped set

up the ground on mornings, do covers and all the other cleaning up. I’m sure I’ve forgotten

someone but please give me some latitude - I'm writing this after a big session at the gym in

England and I’m a tad weary!

To Goldy and the entire committee thank you for your help and support, the club wouldn't be

able to run so smoothly without all of you doing a great job. I hope to see everyone back next

year for another crack at some silverware. When I get back, hopefully all my gym sessions

will have paid off and I won't look like a truck. See you all in the new season.

FOURTH GRADE by Tim Whiticker

Firstly, congratulations to the First grade boys on winning the Limited Overs in a game that

will be spoken about for years to come. The entire club has witnessed the hard work and

sacrifices that they have had to make, some of them over the course of several years, to claim

such a title. Retiring First grade skipper Matt Halse typifies what it means to be a Cat, the

never-say-die attitude and ‘club first’ mentality. He has long been a great example for all

players at the club, and I wish him a long and happy retirement - with plenty of bottles of red.

Thanks to Goldy, Pete Hazard, Pete Hackney and the committee, coaching staff and practice

captains, who continue to do all the hard work behind the scenes for the benefit of the players.

It can be a thankless job and the change in culture and overall vibe at the club in recent

seasons hasn’t gone unnoticed by the playing group.

The two independent selectors, Butts and Scorch, again put their hands up to help the club in

this challenging role. My experience this season was both guys went above and beyond and

were thrown plenty of curve balls with players getting pushed and pulled by representative

selections. They were extremely fair, honest and had the best intentions of the club at heart.

I would like to acknowledge the efforts of those who collectively transformed Bill Ball Oval

through countless hours of hard work and attention. To Pete Hazard, Andrew Hazard and

Jacob New, your input was simply brilliant, completely unselfish and truly appreciated by the

boys in the lower grades. To Zammo, Dave Hinkley and Camo thank you for your expertise

and wicket preparation at Bill Ball and Rance this season.

I must admit when I was asked to captain Fours this season, along with a few of the older

boys in the side I had some reservations about the likely age and experience of a likely team.

‘Bushie’, ‘Drifter’ and I had spent previous seasons playing in higher grades and forming

great bonds; but a lot of the younger ones in those sides have since worked their way up the

grades. In truth, it was remiss of us to think that just because we were sliding down the

grades, that the next generation coming through the club would be any different from our

previous experience.

Despite a 10 to 15 year age gap covering the 11 players most weeks, every Saturday brought

laughs, hard cricket and some great moments, which is indicative of how success and

camaraderie flows throughout the club.

We finished 7th

on the ladder, missing out on the finals cricket by 0.2 quotient. Despite our

best efforts, our record of 8 wins, 4 losses and 3 draws simply wasn’t enough. The wins that

we did put together were fantastic and on the back of some great team performances, but we

couldn’t convert a couple of opportunities to take 10 points, which is always a massive help

come the pointy end of season.

Aside from a comprehensive defeat to Gordon when the club was very undermanned, the

remaining losses were hard fought affairs. The last game of the season was particularly

heartbreaking when we went down in spectacular fashion to the eventual premiers Sydney on

the last ball of the match.

What it did show however was that on our day we could compete with the top sides in the

competition, something that I hope the younger guys can take into next year.

The weather certainly had an impact on the entire competition this year and it contributed to

our 3 draws. It was frustrating when one club asked for a gentleman’s agreement (60 overs

each) and then reneged during the match by batting 75 overs - yet typical of how that club

plays their cricket. Draws make it abundantly clear how important it is to start each season

with a bang, chalk up as many wins as you can before the crazy weather hits. And, how

important it is to be prepared to assist with the covers and ground preparation to ensure that as

much play as possible can take place.

Upon reflection I hope this season will serve as a great development year for some of the

younger guys. To a man, all 32 players who took the field for 4th

grade this season put the

club first, were there for their team-mates and never stopped competing. It was extremely

pleasing to see the development of several players who may have been in 5s or Colts last

year, come on in leaps and bounds to look like naturals in a new and higher grade. Even more

pleasing was seeing some of the guys push their way into 3rd

grade but return with a drive to

keep turning in performances and work their way back up the grades. Most of all it was just

fun to spend every Saturday with a good group of guys who were always looking to win.

Lastly, I would like to thank both Bushie and Drifter who captained the side at different

stages this season with great success. It was an honour to captain the team this year and I

hope that all players can take something out of this season and put it into practice for a

successful 2017/18.

A brief overview of the main boys this season. To all of the guys who played 4s this year,

thank you for your efforts and contribution to the team.

Jeremy Newton - ‘Jez’ had a bumper season and produced some of the most controlled

knocks. His 71 against Fairfield on a lovely 41-degree day set up our innings and showed

great application. I hope that Jez can keep his body in decent knick and work his way into the

higher grades, which he has been promising to do.

Steve Pascoe - A long-term player and former captain at the club, Drifter was massive for the

side. His positive starts and attacking stroke play laid the team platform. His fielding was next

level and I still believe he has some of the best hands at the club, especially at first slip.

Whether it was tactical advice, a joke or two, or setting an example for the younger guys to

not take any rubbish (Manly skipper) you could always count on Drifter.

Tom Sargeant - Tommy had a great year with the bat and was brilliant in the field with his

hands and sledging. He may very well be the only player at the club to win fielder of the year

with one arm and not being able to throw. At times, ‘Sarge’ made oppositions look second

rate with his batting, his average of 46.40 supports that. A taste of 3rd

grade will surely push

him further up the grades.

Shannon Finemore - Shan was a huge addition to the side after Christmas and brought so

much experience to the team on and off the pitch. For the younger guys especially, his

demeanour and the way he goes about his cricket will have long-term benefits. You would

struggle to find a guy who loves the club more. Being able to have an ex-First grade batsman

in the side was great, but it was with the ball that Shan thrived, and he was our ‘go to guy’ at

clutch stages.

Daniel Saywell - ‘Quads’ was a surprise packet; he contributed to many of the change room

laughs, and from a grade perspective although somewhat of an unknown, he quickly

cemented his spot in 4s. Ever reliable and consistently churned out 30s and 40s, although

lacked a big score year.He has a big future at the club if other sporting endeavours don’t

come first.

Sam Grant - Sammy came on leaps and bounds this season taking his chance in 4’s with

both hands. After being a shadow player for a few rounds, he became impossible to drop as

his batting, enthusiastic efforts in the field and a few wickets to boot always put him in the

game. With his attitude and work rate, bigger and better performances will soon come.

Matt Cummins - Much like Shan, we were extremely lucky to have ‘MC’ join the team just

after Christmas, when the club was struggling with players constantly departing for

representative duties. Having an ex-First grade player and former Second grade captain come

into the team lifted everybody. His statistics don’t measure his impact on the team as he was

the ultimate team man and was always threatening with the ball.

Paul Williams - Bushie was prominent with the bat, ball, leadership and overall sledging this

year, the latter primarily consisting of loudly laughing at opposition players. He not only

captained the team but was one of the many team leaders on the field and in the sheds. His

best performance statistically was a lazy 50 off 19 balls against Campbelltown, whilst he

consistently strangled teams with tight, effective bowling, something that he has long done

for the club. With Bushie you always get plenty of laughs - but with a ruthless attitude we all

appreciated.

Adam Burton - ‘Burto’ came of age this season and his hard work throughout winter was

evident from the very first game. In only 6 games with us, he was our 3rd

highest wicket taker

and he was our ‘go to man’ in the latter stages of the year. For a young leg spinner, he has an

extraordinary amount of promise (3rd

Grade 7 fa!) but he is the ultimate team man. He was

always willing to help with covers, be at the ground early or even sneak 3 or 4 beers with the

older guys.

Brendan Vella - ‘Vella’ played the first half of the year in 4s and was damaging with the ball

and produced several knocks which gave us something to bowl at. Despite finishing the year

in 5s after picking up an injury, he was constantly one of our better players.

Taran Finemore - ‘Taz’s appearances were limited this season but when called upon he

always put in. For some of the younger guys at the club he is a great example of always

‘wanting the ball in your hand’ and ‘pushing through’ tough conditions or taking opposition

batsmen head on.

Daniel Miklosz - Although he was a staple in 3s for much of the year, his crafty swing

bowling and team input was crucial to our efforts later in the year. On his day, he is one of the

toughest bowlers to get away. His input to team chats, or in the field, were greatly valued.

Always putting the team first.

Damon Myburgh-Sisam - ‘Damo’ is a kid with a very, very big future at the club. The

Green Shield captain was forced to step up and be our front-line spinner for much of the year,

going on to pick up 18 wickets. It wasn’t until guys in the higher grades returned that he was

forced to head back to 5s which was an extremely tough decision. The best part about Damo

is that despite the age of his team-mates, he wasn’t shy to speak up, get in on the jokes and to

give it to the opposition. His ‘5-fa’ against Gordon on a ground with an extremely short

boundary showed a great deal of promise and confidence. I hope that he goes onto bigger and

better things for the Cats.

Ben Crouch - Despite saying all of 3 words in the sheds this season, ‘Crouchy’ arguably

contributed to our team performances and culture more than anyone this year. Crouchy was

able to cut it with the older guys and took a lot of jokes in his stride, even if his response was

a smile. With the ball, Crouchy was statistically our best bowler (18 wickets) with his left arm

swingers and I could always count on him to pick up an early wicket or create a chance or 2.

It was pleasing to see him win the Rookie of the Year and to also get a taste of 3s.

FIFTH GRADE by Lachlan Smith

Lachlan Smith: Fifths had a good team culture

It was an exciting year for Penrith Cricket Club, and our Fifth grade side was no exception. In

a side where the oldest player was 22, the boys showed maturity beyond their years. Our

never-say-die approach got us to the the semi finals. The hard work and professionalism they

brought to training, then displayed on weekends, was rewarded with some spectacular

individual performances, and a number of close wins.

We had a lot of boys playing their first season of grade cricket. They showed a determination

to establish and test themselves. As captain I couldn't be prouder of the boys for their efforts,

individual and as a team. The culture we built within the side is something I'm very proud of.

To make the semi final in your first year of grade cricket is an outstanding accomplishment,

and something these young men should be commended on.

Every person who played Fifths this year seemed to enjoy themselves, and as a captain that's

all you can ask for. I'm sure losing the semi will be motivation for the 2017/18 season. I look

forward to seeing all these fantastic men progress through grade cricket and represent Penrith

Cricket Club for years to come.

I’d like to thank all the parents who helped provide the best afternoon teas in the comp and

who stepped into score; it is most appreciated. Big thanks to Scorch and Butts for helping me

through the season and to Goldy and the Committee who made sure I had everything I

needed.

COLTS - METROPOLITAN CUP By Reuben Chowdhury

First and foremost, I would like to thank the Penrith Cricket Club committee and volunteers

for all their countless hard work behind the scenes, and, for the opportunity to captain Colts.

At the start of the season my goal was only to play consistent grade cricket, but to be named

captain was indeed a massive honour.

After finishing as premiers the previous 2 seasons, expectations were high to make it 3 in a

row. A lot of new faces made their grade cricket debuts for the club this season, many of

which I had never met before, but as a team we gelled instantly. I could not have asked for a

better group of blokes to help me settle and develop into this captaincy role.

All the boys were outstanding with their efforts throughout the season! Never once did they

give up or drop off when the going got tough, as shown by some of the tough, gritty, and nail-

biting results going the way of the mighty Colts throughout the season.

An unbelievable season saw us finish 2nd

on the ladder with 67 points. Our 11 wins were the

most by any team, and our only loss was to rivals Blacktown by 9 runs. The boys week in

week out were consistently the most dominant team in the competition, and unlucky not to be

minor premiers.

Even though I would say our strength lay with our bowling and fielding, the spearhead in

attack being 4-5 pace bowlers as well as 2-3 spinners each game, the boys still managed to

score more runs than any other team in the comp! The boys also finished the season with the

second most wickets taken by any team. A huge effort and massive congratulations to all the

boys involved!

Coming into the finals saw us convincingly defeat the top placed teams in Blacktown, Randy

Petes, and Easts. Our momentum was a little staggered due to that unfortunate period of

weather where 2 out of the 3 games leading into the grand final were washed out, including

the semi final.

Other than not having as much cricket under our belts as we would have preferred, the boys

turned up at Killara Oval for the grand final to face Gordon and were keen the make it 3 wins

from 3 against them – and, of course, 3 premierships in a row for the mighty Colts.

On day 1 of the final, play didn’t look promising. The ground was full of puddles, the run ups

were mud, and the pitch was soft and wet in patches. Despite both teams working together

and doing their best to ensure play could start as quickly as possible, the umpires eventually

called off the day’s play.

Arriving bright and early the next day, the boys were ready to rip in, keen for an early start of

play. Again, unfortunately the curator and umpires deemed the ground unacceptable for play.

A few hours later the start time for play was decided on, a toss was performed and we were

sent in to bat.

The plan was to put as many runs on the board in 40-50 overs, leaving us about that many

overs to have a crack at them and bowl them out. However, from the early overs Gordon

outplayed us, bowling extremely well in the conditions. Wickets constantly fell with little

resistance from our boys. Mick Organ batted outstandingly for a top score of 34, with Hamish

and Riley chipping in with 14 and 15 respectively. The boys were unfortunately dismissed for

87 off 41 overs, including 5 ducks.

The boys needed to bowl extremely well to have any chance of defending this total. ‘Grego’

was on fire opening the bowling with one of the most aggressive spells of bowling I have

seen. Hamish Lelliott bowled outstandingly to end up with figures of 4/13, and received 2

warnings from the umpires for his passion and aggression. Unfortunately Gordon passed us in

the 27th

over.

For an extremely young and inexperienced team in their first season of grade together, I

couldn’t be more proud of this young group. Despite the disappointing end to the season, I

think everyone can agree that this season was a successful one, and laying the foundations to

hopefully go one better next year and win back that trophy. It was an honour to be your

captain and I’m certain many of you are destined for higher honours. Thank you for a terrific

season boys. Keen to play with you all again next year.

Finally, I’d like to thank the following people whom made this season a successful one and

my job as captain as easy as possible:

- All the Penrith Cricket club coaches and selectors for their continued support and

guidance throughout the season.

- The curator for always ensuring we had a great field to play on.

- Pete Hazard for his constant help, information, making sure I had everything sorted,

entering the day’s play into Mycricket, and always helping with any queries I had.

- Lachie Smith, Brock Balgowan, Lachlan Coad, Josh Dowd, Hamish Lelliott, and Josh

Coyte for all their guidance, help, information, and anything to help me better myself

as a captain. And, taking over from me in my absence.

- Geoff Thornton for taking home the scorebooks at the end of each game and helping

enter the days play into Mycricket.

- Geoff Sullivan for his insight and cricketing knowledge which proved invaluable.

- To all the parents, supporters, and anyone who made the effort and took the time out

of their lives to bring your boys to training and games, helping with covers and

preparing the field, rotating the scoring between you all, ensuring we had the best

afternoon teas out of every team in the comp, and keeping Rance tidy and in working

order. This season wouldn’t have been possible without your continual help and

dedication.

- Finally, to all the boys for one memorable season. Again, it was an honour to captain

you all, and hopefully I’ll see every one of you again next season to bring back the

trophy to Penrith!

POIDEVIN-GRAY by Cameron Weir

The 2016/17 season saw many of last year’s semi-finalist return with more experience and the

desire to make this year the year of The Cats!

The team achieved a lot of success this year and the winning culture within the team was

incredible. The team did the club proud, playing tough cricket in the spirit of the game.

Round 1

The Cats took on Randwick Petersham at Howell to kick off the season. A new look bowling

attack for this season saw Ryan Fletcher stand up leading the way taking 3 key wickets and

Andrew Hazard chiming in with 3fa also. 182 was the target and with the top order failing,

Connor New 64* and Nathan Maskell 50 got us home in a great run chase. We showed our

depth as a team and our determination to win.

Round 2

Taking momentum from round 1, we took on Mosman at Howell again. Mosman got off to a

steady start, however the introduction of the ever reliant Jake Wholohan taking 3 for not

many, together with Jacob New 3fa and 2 run outs in the field by an energetic Penrith outfit,

saw Mosman bowled out for 173. It was a solid run chase with the top 6 all contributing and

Jake Whooly getting us home with 4 overs to spare. The Cats go 2 from 2!!!

Round 3

The next task was taking on a strong St George outfit at Howell Oval. We finally won a toss

and got to bat first. The Cats posted a well above par score of 228, thanks to a century from

Cam Weir and important middle order contributions along the way. Ryan Fletcher again

stood up with the new ball taking 3 big wickets with Haz and Whooly also taking 2 each,

bowling St George all out for 174. Another 6 points to The Cats, knocking off a quality side.

Round 4

This was our first away game and a trip out to Bensons Lane to take on local rivals

Hawkesbury. Fletcher again struck early with the new ball before spin did the trick with 7

wickets between Haz (3), debutant Adam Burton (2) and Jake Whooly (2). The run chase

never looked in doubt, passing Hawkesbury’s total 3 wickets down in the 38th

over thanks to a

partnership of 111 between Jona Sammut and Cam Weir. 4 from 4 with a very comfortable

victory.

Round 5

A big game matching up against the undefeated Fairfield. Winning the toss, we batted first

posting 218 on a big ground and slow outfield. Cam Weir continued his form with a 3rd

consecutive century and was very well supported by Whooly and Lidds at the end with

cameos of 30 and 20 respectively. The boys showed a real determination to win, bowling

Fairfield out for 204 with openers Kaine Balgowan and Ryan Fletcher taking 2 each and a

miraculous 4 run outs. Big win by the boys and The Cats remain undefeated.

Round 6

Our last round game of the year saw us take on Western Suburbs with plenty to play for. We

lost the toss and bowling first our bowlers stood up, Western Suburbs out for 100. Daniel

Sparkes bowled exceptionally well taking 3 key wickets and was well supported by Kaine

Balgowen 2 and an economical 2fa for Whooly. Turned out 100, against a fired up

opposition, would be a tricky run chase. At 5-35 we were in trouble but Jake Whooly and

Jacob New stood up and lead The Cats home with 35* and 40* respectively. The boys

finished the round games undefeated and 2nd on the ladder.

Quarter Final

Of all teams to go up against in the quarter final - our arch-rivals Fairfield Liverpool. We won

the toss and batted first, however our top order failed to get going and thanks to an energetic

43* from Tyran Liddiard and 28 from Whooly, lifted the total to 147. We had them 3/50, then

a 90 run partnership saw Fairfield pass our score with just 8 balls to spare. But we sure went

out playing aggressive cricket!

Firstly, a huge thank you to the coaches Dale Turner, Kevin Geyer and Brent Williams, as

well as Michael Wholohan. The guidance from these club greats is much appreciated by all

the boys and we are grateful for the time and commitment you showed us throughout the long

season.

To the boys, it hurts going so well throughout the season then to go down swinging in the first

round of the finals. But we were 6 from 7 this year and we played some unbelievable cricket

throughout the season. The way we rallied as a team and never gave up should make the club

proud. 3 of the 4 semifinalist were teams we defeated during the round games.

A special mention must go to 3 lads who have given everything over many seasons of PGs:

Kaine Balgowan, Jona Sammut and Jacob New. They have contributed so much to the team

both on and off the field and will leave a big hole to fill for us next year. We appreciated all

your hard work and hope to see you next year cheering from the sidelines.

Lastly, a mention must go to all the parents that gave up their time helping with the essential

tasks including scoring, lunches and washing the clothes. A special mention to Pete Hazard

and Peter Hackney for always having everything waiting when required. Your work never

goes unnoticed.

The boys will be back bigger and better in the 2017/18 season.

Our Boys At Bradman Oval

This season saw the seventh playing of the Lou Benaud Cup at Bradman Oval, Bowral,

between the Penrith A.W. Green Shield squad and one from Parramatta. The match is played

annually on the second Sunday in October and perpetuates the commitment to youth cricket

of Lou Benaud, father of Australian Test cricketing brothers Richie and John. All three had

cricketing connections with Penrith and Parramatta. The match offers the boys from both

teams, and their parents, a chance to walk the hallowed turf where the mighty Don Bradman

made his name.

Despite strong individual efforts from the Penrith trio of Kieran Shone, Elliot Heath and

Damon Myburgh-Sisam Parramatta were worthy winners, their fifth. There has been one

washout and Penrith have won once. The scores were: Penrith 133 (36.5 overs), Parramatta

5/139 (32.2). Coming in at No.4 Kieran Shone carried the Penrith innings with 48 from 59

balls, five fours and a six, strike-rate 81.4. All the good work of his third wicket partnership

of 43 with Aryan Grover (28, 61 balls, four fours) was undone by a late order collapse.

Penrith’s best bowlers were Elliot Heath (2/10, four overs) and Damon Myburgh-Sisam

(1/15 off eight)

A.W. GREEN SHIELD by Aryan Grover

ROUND 1 – PENRITH v RANDWICK-PETERSHAM: Rain started the Green Shield season

for Penrith, as we approached an aesthetic Petersham Oval. The team were enthusiastic to

play and not discouraged by the grey clouds. The ground staff and umpires eventually called

a late start and a shortened 35 over match. Damon Myburgh-Sisam, the Penrith Green Shield

Captain for 2016/17, won the toss and elected to bowl. Our bowling unit rose to the challenge

and took advantage of the overcast conditions, bowling Randwick Petersham all out for 109

in 34 overs. A few early wickets fell for the Cats, however, Adrian Agius and Henry Railz

offered stability to the team and were building a great partnership. Unfortunately, after 10

overs with Penrith 3/40, a fierce storm hit that marked the end of the match, resulting in a

draw. Although the rain determined the result, an outstanding effort in the field gave the team

confidence going into the following rounds. Best Performances Raajdeep Singh – 3/17 off 7

Damon Myburgh-Sisam – 3/28 off 7

Adrian Agius – 16*

Henry Railz – 2/16 off 7, 10*

ROUND 2 – PENRITH v MOSMAN: Our second opponent, Mosman, were widely

recognised as premiers of the 2015/16 season. The boys felt privileged to be able to play on

Allan Border Oval. In ideal batting conditions, Damon lost the toss and the Cats were sent in

to field. After our previous bowling performance, we were confident in our attack with the

boys rising to the occasion with some early wickets and looking dominant. A good fightback

from Mosman gave them the total of 9/220 after 50 overs. We experienced another top order

collapse. A continual flow of wickets didn’t allow for any partnerships to build which saw

Penrith all out for 122 after 40 overs. It was a disappointing loss after a good effort with the

ball, however, we remained positive, looking to improve for round 3.

Best Performances

Henry Railz – 2/29 off 10

Aryan Grover – 32

ROUND 3 – PENRITH v WESTERN SUBURBS: Our first home game gave us the honour

of playing at Howell Oval, against Western Suburbs. After losing the toss, Penrith were sent

in to bat. Some quick partnerships from our top 4 and contributions from Jordan Davison and

Nicholas Thornton down the order, set our total to 8/168 after 50 overs. Confident with our

bowling capability, we bowled Western Suburbs all out for 146 after 46 overs. This win

provided the boys with a lot of confidence going into the Christmas break.

Best Performances

Matthew Sullivan – 40

Jordan Davison – 30, 4/25 off 8

Nicholas Thornton – 25

Elliot Heath – 3/23 off 8

ROUND 4 – PENRITH v NORTH SYDNEY: Returning after the break we met North

Sydney with renewed confidence. After losing the toss, Penrith bowled, once again our

team’s strength, and with an outstanding effort restricted North Sydney to 151 after 36.4

overs. With batting being a weakness in previous games chasing this total would still be

challenging, however, the Cats rose to the occasion, scoring 4/152 after 43.2 overs. This was

a great win for the Cats combining solid efforts with the ball, bat and in the field.

Best Performances

Kieran Shone – 47*

Adrian Agius – 41*

Liam Doddrell – 3/22 off 6

ROUND 5 – PENRITH v EASTERN SUBURBS: After a good win, Penrith were confident

in their ability to reach the finals. Eastern Suburbs were a team of similar ability to Penrith.

The teams met at Snape Park. Another day of rain made conditions horrendous with play

delayed for several hours before a reduced 35 over match. After losing the toss, Penrith were

sent in to bat where the conditions proved tough for our side. A continual fall of wickets was

halted by Jordan Davison, who once again, provided stability to the side with his batting

capability helping the side reach the total of 121 off 34 overs. Despite a small total, our

bowling unit were confident. A magnificent display of consistent bowling, saw Eastern

Suburbs all out for 72 in the 30th

over, securing a bonus point win for the side.

Best Performances

Henry Railz – 4/12 off 8

Raajdeep Singh – 2/15 off 7

Jordan Davison – 27

ROUND 6 – PENRITH v ST GEORGE: Sitting in a positive position on the table, our next

opponent was St George. After losing the toss, St George elected to bat. Not surprisingly,

Penrith’s bowling force tore through St George’s batting line up, knocking them over for 136

in 41 overs. This was a tremendous effort by the Cats that gave us the opportunity to secure a

win against one of the hardest teams of the competition. However, over confidence saw the

Cats slump to 4/4 after 4 overs and we were eventually bowled out for 68 after 32 overs. This

was a devastating loss from which we learnt a lot, however, we remained positive and looked

to get back into hard training to gain momentum going into the final round.

Best Performances

Raajdeep Singh – 4/16 off 6

ROUND 7 – PENRITH v HAWKESBURY: The final match was against Penrith’s local

rivals Hawkesbury. With a strong desire to win and secure a place in the finals, Penrith won

the toss and chose to bat. An improved batting performance from the previous round was

characterised by Kieran Shone scoring 74 not out. This performance took us to 6/178 after 50

overs, giving our bowling unit the opportunity to do what they do best – take wickets. After a

well-executed performance in the field and with the ball, Hawkesbury fell for 135 after 45.3

overs, securing a solid win for Penrith. This win was most prominently felt by the team as it

put us in a good position for the finals.

QUARTER FINAL – PENRITH v ST GEORGE: The quarter final gave us the opportunity to

play against St George once again to show Penrith’s true capability. We lost the toss and St

George chose to bat. Our bowling started off a little weary and it was the first time in the

competition that we felt dominated by the other team’s batting. St George were controlling

the innings being 2/94. However, an important fight back from our bowlers put them in the

positon of 9/105, taking 7 wickets for just 11 runs. A 10th

wicket partnership however from St

George saw them all out for 147 after 47 overs. A solid effort from our bowlers gave our

batsmen the opportunity to defeat St George, and after some disappointing batting

performances in the season, our batsmen had to execute.

Going into bat, we focused on building partnerships and not lose wickets in clumps. After

losing two early wickets, we feared a similar batting collapse to those which had plagued us

all season. However, over confidence from St George favoured the Cats with our middle and

bottom order taking us to a position where we required 2 runs to win off the final over, with 1

wicket remaining. An extremely nervous time for both teams, the pressure was tremendous.

Despite this, Zach Farley was the hero and smashed the ball over the infield for a four which

took us over the line with one ball and one wicket remaining. What a win!!! The subsequent

team song could be easily heard from the other side of the ground.

SEMI FINAL – PENRITH v NORTHERN DISTRICTS: The day of the semi-final gave us to

the privilege of playing at Mark Taylor Oval against Northern Districts. The Cats showed up

on time, ready to play with confidence in their individual and united capabilities. After a

well-executed warmup and preparation, we were in good touch to play. After losing the toss,

we were to bowl first. Our bowling unit once again rose to the occasion and impressed, taking

wickets regularly to contain Northern Districts to 178 in the 49th

over.

Going into bat, despite experiencing tight bowling by the Northerners, our top 4 batsmen

executed well to take us to 3/106 after 25 overs. In a good position, we experienced an insight

of winning however this was our downfall as we became overconfident and began to

collapse, losing 7 wickets for 43 runs. After a solid effort, it was disappointing to lose in such

a manner and the mood in the dressing room reflected this. However, again this was a

learning curve and did not take away from our great season with some excellent

performances and the achievements that the team reached. The boys thank the coaching unit

of Michael Castle, Cameron Weir and Jake Wholohan for their contributions to the

development of the team.

WOMEN’S FIRST GRADE By Stephen Costello

(L To R Standing Steve Costello Coach, Lisa Grffith, Kate Waetford, Mikayla Hinkley ©, Danielle

Armstrong, Ashley Day, Amy Edgar, Naomi Stalenberg, Sandy Stalenberg Manager, Kneeling,

Nicole Squires, Nerida Gregory, Samantha Arnold, Eliza Bunner)

This season was a marked improvement on the previous season, with our First grade ladies

finishing 5th

compared to 7th

in 2015/16. The team was still in contention for the semi-finals

near the end of the Limited Over Competition, but missed out due to injuries, unavailability

and wet weather.

The team was competitive in most games and showed greater fight and commitment, but

inexperience still let us down, a game in case being against Bankstown when the team batted

beautifully to reach 3 for 212, with plenty of overs in hand, to be all out 240 when a score of

280 or better was on the cards with more controlled batting. It must be remembered however,

the average age of our team would still be under 20, compared with late 20s in other teams.

This means we give away experience as well as strength and power; these disadvantages will

lessen as our young players develop.

The First grade team benefited from having players involved in the NSW Breakers Academy

and Under Age NSW Metro Academy Squads, Amy Edgar, Danielle Armstrong, Mikayla

Hinkley and Ashley Day. Of benefit too was the return of two experienced players to cricket

this season, Lisa Griffith and Nerida Gregory, both of whom had been members of NSW

senior squads in the past. Both performed superbly after some time away from the game.

With a full season under their belt I am sure they will have even more success next year.

The other pleasing aspect for the year was the performances of many of our young Second

graders when they had an opportunity to step into the First grade. I congratulate them for the

way they rose to the occasion every time. Early experience in First grade will help improve

them rapidly.

.

This season saw a new Combined First and Second grade T20 competition format to

accommodate the reduced number of players available across the First and Second grade

competitions whilst the Women’s Big Bash League was on. We decided to enter two teams

and to mix up our First and Second grade teams. While this meant we were probably were not

going to win the competition it did lead to our younger players mixing with, and playing

against more experienced players, which prompted rapid improvement in all areas, particularly

fielding.

Despite having to play short a few times the Penrith White and Penrith Black teams were quite

competitive. Speaking with some of the coaches from other clubs at the end of the season, I

think we did the right thing entering two teams. It gave our players a regular opportunity to

play cricket during this period and prevented them losing interest during the break in the

Limited Overs competition.

Penrith can look forward to a good season next year in the First grade Women’s competition,

with the experience and confidence gained by many of our players this season, on top of the

excellent results of our Second grade this year.

Congratulations to Naomi Stalenberg who was a member of Australia’s first ever

‘Professional’ Female sporting team the NSW Lendlease Breakers, who represent NSW in the

Women’s National Cricket League. Mikayla Hinkley made her NSW Lendlease Breakers

WNCL debut in November against Victoria in Melbourne, opening the batting and scoring 18

runs. Both Naomi and Mikayla were members of the Sydney Thunder Women’s Big Bash

Team in the WBBL02 season, and Mikayla also gained selection in the Australian ‘Shooting

Stars’ (U21) team, which toured Sri Lanka in April.

WOMEN’S SECOND GRADE By John Breaden

We were very rusty in Game 1 of the season against Parramatta at Merrylands Oval. We set

two goals for the match, score 200 runs and bat for 50 overs. We were eight runs and three

balls short of achieving both of these goals. But, signs were good for the season ahead. Game

2 was disappointing because the Universities forfeited, so we went to Game 3 with the same

goals as for Game 1: 200 runs and bat for 50. We fell two runs and one ball short, but … we

we picked up our first win of the season! Good to see the girls get some runs and wickets

under their belts.

Game 4 against Northern Districts was a good day out for Hannah ‘Show’ Darlington and Erin

Breaden, both getting among the runs and the wickets, leading the team to a dominant win.

Game 5 against Sydney at Bill Ball Oval was much tighter but another solid win was achieved

under pressure, just what the girls needed going into the next round against the ‘unbeatable St

George’ - they last lost a game in the 2012/13 season!

St George. This was the day half of the team had been waiting for! The younger girls in the

side who have come up from the Brewer Shield with me as coach reminded me when we got

to Harold Fraser Oval that the last time we had played there we were rolled for just 15. That

was in the 2014/15 season. As coach, I was hoping they’d forgotten that! But something was

different today; there was a quiet determination to make a show of ourselves.

And that we did! We beat the side that hadn’t lost a game in four seasons! The coach and

supporters were on the edges of their seats as the match progressed: we had them 2/0, 3/1, 4/7,

6/16, 7/53, 8/103, 9/108. But that last wicket didn’t fall until … 136, just 12 runs shy of our

score. This was far and away the best cricket I’ve seen the girls play in my four years with the

team. Best of all was Show Darlington with not only 58 runs but 6/13 against the No.1 team

for the last … who knows how long?

Game 8 was against Bankstown at Bill Ball. It was another thriller, just 10 runs in it. The

coach was very relieved to get the final “we won” text … ‘watching’ from his hotel room in

Hawaii.

Thumbs up: but really it was an Hawaiin High-5 from the coach!

Game 9 at Raby Oval against Campbelltown turned out to be our down time, a good effort in

the field but we just couldn’t get going with the exception of Carr and Downey who just

wouldn’t give up on a very hot day! Game 10 though was ‘Show-time’.

.

A great 109 by Darlington crushed Universities at Bill Ball Oval. She played a ball on when

about 88 but the bails failed to dislodge. This truly was going to be Hannah’s day out! The

outfield was very slow with few boundaries hit. Had this been on Howell I have no doubt she

would have scored 159. Watch out for this girl, she will play at the highest levels in all forms

of the game.

We just couldn’t get going in Game 11 at Drummoyne against Sydney. It really was one of

those days where the girls just didn’t get themselves in and appeared to be rushing to score

runs. But I feel it was probably more frustration, as the Sydney girls really bowled to their

field.

Game 12 was a washout, Game 13 against Parramatta at Bill Ball was for the unofficial M4

Cup, the local derby, a game we dearly wanted to win. Sadly, it wasn’t to be and it meant we

faced St George in the playoffs, but the weather was not kind to us and fourth we shall forever

hold in the 2016/17 Second grade championship.

In writing this I see that quite a few girls have their names repeated in the wickets and runs as

doing well. But these are not the only girls in the team. As we all know, cricket is a team sport,

but it requires individuals to do well in order for the team to do well. As a team though we

need and rely on those girls who turn up, week in, week out and give 100% effort towards all

they do. Thanks to all the girls for the way you play the game, the way you conduct yourselves

and how you represent yourselves and your club.

Thanks finally to all the helpers each week with the covers, ground marking and setting up,

scoring and cleaning up after the games. It makes my role easier with this help and I wouldn’t

be able to do it without your assistance.

Women’s T20

The T20 season was set around the WBBL program and there were rule changes that meant

unlike the 50 oval competition girls couldn’t move between teams. At a player meeting the

decision was made to split the first and second grade side down the middle with a white and a

black team comprising of both firsts and seconds players.

The proof of the good decision making at the beginning of the season to split the team was

proven in our match where one team won by one run and the fact that it was almost the same

result on the ladder. The younger girls in second grade were able to play with and against girls

who play first grade or higher levels of cricket. I saw a marked improvement in their

individual games. Thanks to the first grade girls for playing with the second grade girls. It only

makes the club stronger in the long term.

SEASON ACHIEVEMENTS

The club was over the moon when our mighty young pace bowler, Pat Cummins, came out the

other side of what must have been the most frustrating time of his developing cricketing career

to make it back to full fitness and once again take up the new ball for Australia. ‘Veteran’

swing bowler Josh Lalor and bright young batting talent Ryan Gibson also played first-class

cricket, Gibson making his debut.

Despite the club’s great showing in the Club Championship and so many teams making the

playoff stage it was strange that in 2016/17 that no Individual Club Records were set, no

Individual Grade Records, no Club Record Partnerships nor any Grade Record Partnerships.

It is true too much emphasis on individual performance can lead to self-promotion and weaken

team work, but the flip side is that above average individual performance can lifts team

performance.

Batting is a concern. For instance, no Men’s player qualified for the All Rounder of the Year

where the criteria with the bat is only 250 runs. Seconds captain Peter Betros makes some

good points as to why that might be the case, and how the situation might be improved in

seasons ahead. A high achiever was Hannah Darlington. She made 109 for the Women against

Universities, and, elsewhere turned in strong all round performances. “Remember the name,”

says her coach.

Notable bowling during the season came from these players:

Adam Burton 7/89 in Round 5 v Randwick-Petersham

Hannah Darlington 6/13 in Round 5 v St George

Ryan Smith 5/54 and 5/74 in Round 12 v Hawkesbury

Josh Lalor: in full flight for the CA XI in the Matador Cup 2016/17

.

FOR THE RECORD 2016/2017

Ryan Gibson: hitting out for the CA XI in the Matador Cup 2016/17
