Will send a few down next season for a try out.
I made 19 year old Andrew Hodgart vice captain in the 2nd's last season, has very good cricket brain for a 19 year old. He wanted a year off last season ,though l managed to convince him to play and help the younger kids along. Wasnt interested in playing first last season, however he ended up having one game in the first ,when we were very short to help them out and made a nice 50 odd. Hopefully l can get him down, would be a very good pick up.

The bottom couple of teams are really weak, but the top 4 teams would beat
most North B & North A sides easily. Should be interesting to see how x willi comp club Willi CYMS goes in senior A comp next year in the VTCA. They should be at least competitive.

Re: Williamstown and District Cricket Association (WADCA)

Heard a roumour that Willy Imps may be in trouble, may close up shop if cant find someone to merge with... Only was a couple of seasons, that their was talk between them and Willi CYMS about a proposed merger. Dont think that is on the cards with CYMS winning the flag this season.

Re: Williamstown and District Cricket Association (WADCA)

There has been a proposal put forward to the comp to set up a Veterans grade, either over 35 or over 40. I know we are very keen to put a side together, and would opt for the over 40 stipulation. I was astounded how many former players had their kids down in the juniors this year. It was like a reunion every game. The big 75th reunion we had, sparked alot of interest from the old timers.

I think this would be a good step to take for the Willi comp. Bring back some members back to the clubs. Hope fully this gets off the ground. I know north west has a veterans grade, but would much prefer to play on turf against old club foes...

Dont where the truf grounds are going to be found for a veterans grade. And why would you bother playing in a veternas grade, hit and giggle cricket, rather play in the lower grades.

This is for those that do not wish to play regulary, like half a dozen games during the season. Games would be a one day format, played on Sundays.

So a social game of cricket? I guess you can be drinking VB and Jim Beam Cans while batting, bowling or fileding has that what I got told happens in the NWCA veternans grade and the clubs get fined if they get caught.

Were hoping our supporters turn up on Sunday and do the drinking. We wont be encouraging the players to do it. Few of them actually take it quite serious, bit of pride there and good ammo for bragging rights. We have 15 or so already interested in playing these games. With this strategy in mind, were hoping a few of them decide to come back to the fold and play in the lower grades on Saturday to help out our juniors which are growing at a rapid rate. From one under 12 team five years ago, to potentially six junior sides for the coming season.

Re: Williamstown and District Cricket Association (WADCA)

I agree, though they do have a ageing list, most are over 30's. There reign may be coming to a end if they dont pick up some new players.

Re: Williamstown and District Cricket Association (WADCA)

I have seen north west cricket association have been advertising in the local papers this week for clubs to join the competition. I wasnt aware they had turf cricket, unless there starting it up next season. Wonder if any of the clubs here would move, some might cross over from the VTCA depending on affilation costs.

Re: Williamstown and District Cricket Association (WADCA)

Hi,

i am wondering who people thought where the best performed of the last season, maybe a top 5 bowlers and the same for batters, or a team of the season for the ones.

Not so much on stats alone tho, just who people think did well for themselves.

and, i am also wondering wat people think of the pace bowlers in the comp, Dano Lee, Andrew Wilks, Trent Lawford and Clinton Chugg, along with others.

Thanks
