Club Goals
The committee has been working hard in the off season working on a goal of reintroducing an artificial cricket wicket at the Marist grounds. Work continues to be made and while a pitch will not be ready this season, the number one goal for the committee is to have a home ground in the future.
Trainings
Trainings for the club have been nominated for Thursday nights at Chanel College from 5:30pm, however this may change through the season when T20 is being played on Thursday nights. The club is prepared to loan out club gear for practice, but only to full paying club members, please enquire with Keith Pullman when you need gear.

New shirts have been purchased for the club, these will need to be handed back to the captain at the end of each game. Shirts can be loaned out to full paying members of the club with a $100 bond, that will be fully refundable at the end of the season once your shirt has been returned. Strict washing instructions apply, please see Kris Towgood if you would like to retain your shirt for the season.
