Auditor: Robert Marshall BCA, CA Executive Cttee: Lance Dry, Sean Joseph, Scott Henshilwood, Mark Pettit, Matt Toft, Shaun Raumati. 3 A familiar sight to most of you, Club Chairman Doug Pollock is standing down from the role this coming season, after many years service to the Club in various positions. Premier player, Premier Coach (one of a few qualified Level 3 coaches around Wellington), Committee member and Club Chairman. We all appreciate his commitment, his mentoring and his straight-shooting demeanour. His catch cry at many Club end of season functions – “when the Chairman drinks – everybody drinks” was extremely popular, and now that he’s run out of money as a result, he’s had to call it quits!!!! Seriously though, we are thankful for Doug’s guidance and dedication. We will no doubt continue to see him around the Club from time to time to share a joke and a beer or three!! 4 Marty Brooky – Convenor of the Junior Club after many years has decided to stand down at the end of the 2016/17 season. His own boys have moved on and Marty has decided it’s time to hand over the reins. Brian Gardner and Paul Bracewell will assume the role of Joint Convenors from the new season. I must thank Marty for the time and effort that he has put in over the years. Anyone who devotes countless hours and bucket loads of energy to what can be a thankless task at times, deserves heaps of praise and lots of pats on the back. It speaks volumes that it will take two guys to replace Marty for the season ahead. Good luck Marty – we’ll no doubt see you around the traps, keeping up your cricketing interests and club support. 5 Team Captains Premier: Lance Dry Premier Reserve: Haseeb Quazi First Grade Cougars: Locky Donnelly First Grade Roosters: Brian Gardner Second Grade Bullets: Shaun Raumati Third Grade Super Challengers: Karthik Ullas Third Grade Smoking Pineapples: Luciano Colucci Fourth Grade The Bats: Rhys Stannard Fourth Grade Aces: Casey Greive Fourth Grade Bulldogs: Dave Corry Fourth Grade Hawks: Prateek Singh Intercity One Day Grade, Division 1 Taxes: Paul Young Division 1 Originals: Carl Hammington Division 1 Shepherds: Greg Scobie Division 2 The Shoe Clinic: Sam Hyde Division 2 Masters: Tejesh Modi T20 Section 1 Indies: Ben Wynne-Lewis T20 Section 2 The Lads XI: James White T20 Section 2 Cobras: Scott Barnett T20 Section 2 Tigers: Dan Jones T20 Section 2 Jiminy Crickets: Ben Deeble T20 Section 3 Stags: John Lee T20 Section 3 Tingers: Billy Papatsoumas T20 Section 3 Goons: Corey Lawrence Womens T20 Wildcats: Tess Ure-Bowman 6 DONATIONS Our thanks go to the following people for their kind donations: Pat Baker Sean Joseph Kilbirnie Sports Ronnie Nathu Gordon Dry Southern Cross Cables LOOK AFTER OUR SPONSORS We are grateful to receive such wonderful support from our major sponsors: Pat & Jane Baker, El Cheapo Cars New Zealand Community Trust The Lion Foundation Four Winds Foundation Infinity Foundation Pelorus Trust Pub Charity First Sovereign Trust N Z Racing Board Eastern Suburbs Sports Trust/Pak ‘N Save, Kilbirnie Actrix Networks Ltd 7 LOOK AFTER OUR SPONSORS (cont.)

  • Basin Reserve Trust Statement of Service Performance 2019/20
    Basin Reserve Trust Statement of Service Performance 2019/20 2 Introduction The iconic Basin Reserve has a rich history. The first game of cricket was played at the Basin on 11 January 1868, making it is the oldest cricket ground in New Zealand. The ground not only hosts cricket games, but sporting fixtures of every variety. It has hosted national events and competitions including VE Day celebrations, Royal Tours, exhibitions, Scout jamborees, concerts and festivals. In 1998, the Basin Reserve was listed as a Heritage Area, becoming the first sports ground to receive such a designation and further enhancing its heritage significance. The Basin is also home to the William Wakefield Memorial that was erected in 1882 and commemorates one of Wellington’s founders, William Wakefield. The Basin Reserve plays a role in assisting Wellington City Council to achieve the recreation and leisure participation aims signalled in the 2018-28 Ten Year Plan and the “Living WELL” Wellington Sport & Active Recreation Strategy. The redevelopment will reposition the Basin as New Zealand’s premier cricket venue and help attract national and international events to Wellington. The day to day management of the Basin Reserve is undertaken by Cricket Wellington under a management agreement with the Basin Reserve Trust (BRT). This Statement of Service Performance highlights the achievements of the Trust for the period July 2019 to June 2020. Objectives The objectives of the trust are stated in the Trust Deed as agreed between the Wellington City Council and the BRT and are highlighted below: 1. to manage, administer, plan, develop, maintain, promote and operate the Basin Reserve for recreation and leisure activities and for the playing of cricket for the benefit of the inhabitants of Wellington 2.

  • From Chronology to Confessional: New Zealand Sporting Biographies in Transition
    From Chronology to Confessional: New Zealand Sporting Biographies in Transition GEOFF WATSON Abstract Formerly rather uniform in pattern, sporting biographies have evolved significantly since the 1970s, becoming much more open in their criticism of teammates and administrators as well as being more revealing of their subject’s private lives. This article identifies three transitional phases in the genre; a chronological era, extending from the early twentieth century until the 1960s; an indirectly confessional phase between the 1970s and mid 1980s and an openly confessional phase from the mid-1980s. Despite these changes, sporting biographies continue to reinforce the dominant narratives around sport in New Zealand. New Zealand sporting biographies have a mixed reputation in literary and scholarly circles. Often denigrated for their allegedly formulaic style, they have also been criticised for their lack of insight into New Zealand society.1 Representative of this critique is Lloyd Jones, who wrote in 1999, “sport hardly earns a mention in our wider literature, and … the rest of society is rarely, if ever, admitted to our sports literature.”2 This article examines this perspective, arguing that sporting biographies afford a valuable insight into New Zealand’s changing self- image and values. Moreover, it will be argued that the nature of sporting biographies themselves has changed significantly since the 1980s and that they have become much more open in their discussion of teammates and the personal lives of their subjects. Whatever one’s perspective on the literary merits of sporting biographies, their popular appeal is undeniable. Whereas the print run of most scholarly texts in New Zealand is at best a few thousand, sporting biographies consistently sell in the tens of thousands.
