Dear members and supporters,
This week brings our Women’s teams back into action, with two home games for our Women’s teams this week.
Make sure to spread the word about our T-Ball program, this starts next Friday but we won’t want anyone to miss out so make sure they are registered beforehand and have informed the club their intention to participate.
Our Division 1 side will play Goodwood at home this weekend for their first game of the season, after a fantastic come from behind win against Kensington last week, the boys look to continue the momentum at the start of the season. Club legend Roger Prime will be out on the mound to throw the first pitch for our first home game of the year. After the game, the club is hosting the Senior Player Auction, and we invite everyone to come along and get behind the team this season.
Canteen and Bar rosters are available via our Facebook members page each week.
For another bit of news, keep an eye out as we are going to publish the playing data of our members very soon after lots of tireless work behind the scenes. Due to gaps in our records, this has taken a bit of time to complete, so we appreciate the patience around it, for any questions once these are released please flag with the club directly.
