Website and facebook contact.
/The web pages will be updated regularly and don't forget to like us and share our facebook page. The more the merrier!
Club Subs.
/Caroline will email you with subs early next week. Like last season the club has applied for funding which we will not know if we will get for about a month, so.... the amount for subs will bethe full amount and this will be discounted if the club receives funding.
Social committee.
/We have a social committee this year so there will be several opportunities for social events. We will also run one fundraiser during the season so we would like as much support for that as possible when the time comes! Please bear in mind this has a direct result on the subs you pay! New members wanting to join the social committee are always welcome.
Players needed.
/We are still SHORT of under 18 boys with 10 registered. They play on a Friday night so boys can still play another sport on Saturdays. If you know of anyone who may be keen please get in touch asap! We have 10 registered so really need another 3-4 but even just one or two would be great.
We also have a large number of girls for our year 7/8 team which is great, but not quite enough for two teams. So, if we can get just a couple more girls then we can make another year 7/8 girls team which would benefit everyone as it would mean more game time for all the girls, so once again, ask around to see if your children have friends who may wish to play.
Umpiring - give it a GO! Free refresher session coming up.
/If anyone is interested in umpiring for us then I would be very keen to hear from you. We are trying to organise an umpiring refresher session at the clubrooms one evening soon which we would like all girls and boys from our under 18 team to attend and anyone else who wants to. There will be no cost for this and it is a great opportunity to sharpen up your skills or ask those questions you've never quite been sure of. Umpiring is one area we struggle with in the club, but it doesn't need to be. If we have enough people who give it a go, then you may only be called upon to do one or two games a season rather than leaving it to the same people all the time AND we will never put you above your comfort level. If you would like to have a go at umpiring but feel nervous or unsure, there is plenty of support we can put in place for you.
Have you heard from your coach??
/You should have by now, heard from your team coach/manager. If you haven't then please let Caroline Faas (glennandcaz@hotmail.com) know ASAP! Thanks.

/Blackwell's Department Store are stocking these. There are some pairs available now in stock, with another order coming in 2-3 weeks.
2016 Season Start Dates.
/The men's open team kicks off (or should I say hits off) first with a start date of Monday, 4th April, followed closely by the women's mid-week open who begin their season on Tuesday, 5th April. The 2 women's grass teams start their campaign on Saturday, 9th April. Next up are the 6 aside and all year 8 and under teams who get their sticks out on 30th April. Finally, the boys' and girls' under 18 youth teams take to the turf on Friday, 6th May. Have a great 2016 season everyone!
