The Honourable Ryan Carmody presented his report verbally. It was noted that: On field the club had a mixed result with A grade likely to be relegated to second division after niot winning a game all year; Four of our seven teams made the finals, however only one made the GF and no flags were won. Off field, the social events were well attended and the financial position of the club remains very strong. At the start of the season the committee targeted junior development and enhancing junior rela tionships as a key outcome. This was fully achieved with James Dockery and Dan Clouting to be commended for their commitment to the Bicton Junior club through the year and how they nurtured that relationship. We welcomed Dave McKay as club coach and he made a very positive contribution to our players skills base, particularly mid grade players. Len Blakey is to be commended on the excellent job he did as Chairman of Selectors. This is a tru ly challenging role which Len performed to the highest standard. Due to the new committee composition, the recruitment process commenced late and as a result we probably missed opportunities to secure A grade players. This is a committee priority now. The Club was honored to appoint Burt Baetsen as a Life Member during the year and his contri bution to the club was applauded by all. Murray Tribbeck, former Treasurers role was also acknowledged by the meeting which thanked Murray for his tireless and unselfish service of 10 years.
Turf
• Ryan Carmody noted that he had attended the council meeting, at the request of Councilor Cameron Schuster, where the proposed amalgamation of facilities at Shirley Strickland was tabled. The outcome was the council have agreed a pre feasibility review to commence the process. • Jason Markwart advised the meeting that early in the season a letter of intent was provided to Melville City Council for a new turf facility of Tomkins Park. Subsequently, the consolidation process appears to have broken down with the local bowling club not keen to move. As a result the Shirley Strickland option has emerged. • The meeting was advised that Ryan and Jason had met Kent St head, Cory Hugo who indicated that he had formed a strong relationship with Curtin Vic Park on the basis that they hadn’t heard from Ap plecross for some time. We asked Kent St for a commitment and they indicated they had given CVPCC first preference for their facilities and we should speak to them • Ryan noted he had spoken to Mike Viney and their position was not to fixture lower grade sides above a higher grade teams on Turf facilities. • Ultimately, ACC needs to find a permanent home and investigate what turf facilities are available. The meeting noted that Melville City Council seemed interested in putting a 3rd turf wicket in at Tomkins Park and this should be pursued.
Juniors
• The meeting noted the great work done by Dockers and Clouting over the past year and Dockers ad vised that he felt there was a good platform to build on. • Dockery noted that we can only do better from here. The meeting noted that we have had very limited contact with the Ardross junior cricket club. This will change in time as committees change and personalities change.

Financially, 2014 15 was a good year for the club.
Our bar traded profitably during the year and contributed a net profit of $5,201 which was up from the prior year of $3,698. While our total revenue was slightly lower, we were able to offset this with a reduction in operating costs.
In addition to providing a social forum for our members, the bar is an important contributor to our operat ing costs and the current years result was hard fought. Our functions throughout the year were very suc cessful and included the AFL Grand Final season kick off, Players Tea, Country night at the Races and the Auction Night. Thank you to the member base who supported these events and particularly thanks to the committee members who worked tirelessly to make these events the success that they were.
The cricket department recorded a loss of $7,269, however this included approximately $2,080 from prior years as well as $1,500 for the purchase of a car used for our overseas players.
Pleasingly, with the reduced playing stocks we only saw a slight reduction in membership fees and our costs were well contained during the year.
Our sponsors continue to be the most important aspect of financial support the club can secure and it is absolutely vital that we repay their support with our business. Sponsorship fee income for the year was $13,990, however in addition to this we received a further $5,275 in vouchers and other support which we were able to use for player incentives and end of round awards.
The Auction night was again a huge success generating in excess of $4,500.
The combined result for the year was a loss of $1,326, however after adjusting for the costs of the prior year, the adjusted result was a small profit of $754. A good result.
Finally, on behalf of the club, I would like to acknowledge the significant and substantial contribution of Murray Tribbeck who has been our Treasurer for the last 10 years. Murray came to the club at a time when the club was in a bit of trouble financially. He brought a financial discipline which was needed and for the last 10 years has provided the committee with excellent and unselfish service which allowed us to control our costs and manage the club within its means. The strong financial position we find ourselves in today is Murrays legacy to the club and indeed, we are greatly indebted to Murrays outstanding contribution.

It was an honour to accept the invitation of the President to take on the Chairman of Selectors role at the ACC for this past season. It has been a challenging, humbling yet very rewarding experience. I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to be involved with the on field operations of the Club each week. There was a great vibe during pre season, with well attended training at Leeming indoor and then Stricko outdoor. This was greatly helped with the appointment of Dave McKay as Senior Coach and Chris Cooper as Nets Captain. This put us in good stead to start the season well and have good structures in place. Macca and Coops were also great support for me during the season and enabled me to focus on se lections. Unfortunately, it soon became apparent with on field results that we were probably short a few key play ers and were going to struggle in the higher grades. There was also an ongoing issue of lacking consistent availability of players. This had impact in lower grades as well with players shuffling upwards to fill spots. Apart from regular injuries, it also seemed that the work/life balance to be available for cricket has changed over the years, with FIFO, shift work and increased family commitments all having an influence. This meant that we weren’t really able to establish ideal stability, with 159 players taking the field across seven teams; 48 of those passing through the 3rd XI (6th grade) alone. This did present good opportunities for some though, with Simon Shub, Steve Mathews and Jason Mark wart making their 1st grade debut, on the back of strong performances in 3rd grade. We were also able to provide other younger players with good turf experience in 3rd grade, with the ongoing development of guys such as Josh Dawson, Jamie Stackpole and Josh Brennan. A positive connection with the Bicton Junior Cricket Club was established with the excellent coaching involvement of James Dockery and Dan Clouting. This provided another good stream of players with the likes of Sam Ainge, Ryan Jones, Jarrod Crowley, plus Josh Brennan as already mentioned; all excellent future prospects for the ACC. Sincere congratulations to the BJCC lads for winning their flag this sea son !! We also had regular other new players to the ACC, such as Adam Palumbo, Awais Mehdi, Shohan Bow ala, Bobby Banerjee, Geoff Swingler, Michael Venn Brown, Conor Hutton, Alex Bell and Visura Fernan do. These are all quality players and we hope to see a lot more of them in the future. I’d like to thank Jez, Scotty, Coops, KVP, Fez and Gus for their support, understanding and involvement with selections during the season. Although we perhaps didn’t always agree, I feel that we were able to listen and understand different opinions and perspectives. Thanks also to Jen Hattenfels for coordinating the 1D3s and doing a great job sorting out any admin issues there. Having four teams make finals (6th, 1D1, 1D2, 1D3) would seem to be an okay result for the Club, but a shame that we were not able to bring home any felt. As I mentioned, it’s been a great experience for me to fill the CoS role this season. My primary goals were to be open with communications and fair in selections. I hope that I have gone some way to achieving those ambitions. However, after quite a stint of heavy ACC involvement over the years, my family has requested that I can now be more available to them for a while. I would recommend the role to anyone who is proud to wear the baggy red and prepared to have a crack. However, I would strongly suggest (as my predecessor also recommended) to encourage the increasing use of technology (such as the MyCricket facility) to aid in player availability updating and communications. Too much time is currently spent having to chase for updates from half of the playing group, when they should be more proactive and respectful by letting you know their availability status directly. Personally, I’m already looking forward to pre season 2015/16 and getting the whites out of storage again !

With 100 to score on the last day of the season to register our first win I reached for a quote from singer James Taylor to sum up our year.
'I've seen fire and i've seen rain, i've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend.' Ben Solomon was quick to point out James Taylor also saw 'Sunny days that he thought would never end' and the only sunny days we'd seen had been the ones standing in the field. As if to perfectly make their own summations of our season clear the umpires pulled stumps after allowing only 20 minutes drying time, rendering us 'winless' for the year, a title none of us wear comfortably or easily. By the time the rain finally fell we had been at the pub for 4 hours and the reflections on our season had drifted into amusing anecdotes but most importantly onto the subject of how we can improve next year and force our way back into 1st grade.
With only 1 person playing the final corresponding fixture in A grade from the previous year and a further 7 pulling out throughout the year we were always going to be hard pressed to mix it with what was easily the strongest A grade comp in my 3 years with ACC. You cannot truly gauge the character of a person un til they face adversity and through the year I have seen some tremendous character on display. Losing 4 outrights in a row hurts your pride no matter how much you pretend it doesn't and the ability of some peo ple to keep picking themselves up for another fight was commendable.
Special mentions and thanks go to Anthony Brennan and to Damian O'Hara, two stalwarts who kept turn ing up positive, kept fighting and were two of our best performers. There were some notable performances from new faces that can only mean a more positive future for 1st grade and the club. Awais Mehdi, a swashbuckling bastman and a very good spinner with the ability to bowl long and tight spells. Adam Pa lumbo with some useful big hitting down the order but most importantly a consistent opening bowler with the ability to come on at any stage throughout the innings and maintain his pace, direction and stamina. Adam proved this by bowling an immense spell of 38 overs straight, taking 6 0 odd.
To rebuild we need to take on this seasons lessons and combine it with the resolve displayed by those who saw the season through, start to finish.
Next October is a new season and our visit to 2nd grade next year is only going to be a short stay. ACC is a first grade club that should have it's A grade playing in the first grade comp.

Last year we only lost 2 games on the way to winning the 3rd grade premiership, while this year we managed only 2 wins to finish near the bottom. There is immense joy in being part of a premiership and you would think that this year would be complete ly different but I found the season as a whole to be just as enjoyable and rewarding as last season, albeit in different ways. Winning on two games means that those wins are a little more special and one game stands out this season and that was the game against Bassendean. Having bowled first we were tasked with chasing down 237 for the victory. The season we were having and had that seemed like a monumental and almost impossible task. However, on this day we managed to build a few decent partnerships to put us in a position to win although always slightly behind the eight ball. Needing 49 to win for the last wicket, Shaggers through caution to the wind, scoring a swashbuckling 70 and with dogged support from Mark Nichols at the other end, who nudged and glanced his way to 13, they put on 52 runs to get us to victory. They were supported by some good innings from Josh Dawson (24), Steve Mathews (34) and V Fernando (47) up the order.
One of the most pleasing parts for me throughout the season was the youth coming through which we haven’t seen for a few years. Our premiership side the year before had an average age of around 30 but this year this dropped significantly. We had at time 4 5 guys that were 20 or under and a couple that were 16. It was a pleasure to be able to see these guys make a valuable contribution to the team and few move up to the 1st team and make very useful contributions there as well. In saying that it was not only the young players that came through but we also had those that come up from the lower grades, at times, to fill spots and once again they made valuable contributions and hopeful ly showed themselves that they can play at that level.
The most overriding sense of enjoyment throughout the season was that we competed. All I asked from the team was a 100% effort regardless of what skills they bought to the team and on the whole, apart from a session here or there, every single player stood up and did that and I think we had a good few laughs along the way.

The Hard deck Heroes exceeded expectations during the 2014/2015 season. Having been relegated from 5th grade to 6th grade, the boys were eager to redeem themselves and play an exciting brand of cricket.
Unfortunately, the ‘part time’ cricketer raised their ugly head and we were unable to field a consistent side throughout the season. When we found our rhythm with the ball and our patience with the bat, we played brilliant two day cricket.
I was very proud of the effort the boys put in to reach the semi final. We played a very competitive game against Bedford Morley and unfortunately we lost, however, the bruised egos that we managed to inflict left a lasting scar as they were unable to perform the next week in the grand final.
I was fortunate enough to keep a core bunch of players in the side and I’d like to thank Tom Cruise, Bk, Rowdy, PJ, Steggles and Shawbo for their efforts every week. It was an honour to play alongside you guys this year.
I was also lucky to see a number of young players develop throughout the season. Jamie Stackpole, Josh Brennan Michael Venn Brown are three younger players who showed on a number of occasions that they will go on and play a lot of good cricket for this club.
Lastly, I’d like to thank Dan Clouting who came into the side as a keeper when we were struggling halfway through the season. Dan is a very capable cricketer and showed his talents when he made 102 (no) and carried his bat in the performance of the season.
Lastly, it was a great honour to be given the captaincy of the club’s 3rd XI for the 2014/2015 season.
Thank you to the Committee, Lenny as Chairman of Selectors and Dave as Coach for giving me the opportunity and the support throughout the season.
Lock it in.

I took on the role of captain for the first time this year and can look back on a season of valuable lessons, improvements and challenges with a large feeling of pride.
8th Grade is an ideal entry point into club cricket for many junior players and we were very fortunate to see a multitude of talented young lads come into the team who flourished with both bat and ball. I would par ticularly like to congratulate Joshua Brennan, Jarrod Crowley, Ashal Wahid and Ryan Jones on their per formances this season and can say with strong conviction that they have what it takes to push for selection in the higher grades next season based on what the club has seen of them so far.
2014/15 also saw the introduction of a one of a kind player in Conor Hutton who came out of absolutely nowhere to learn a brand new sport and quickly establish himself as one of the club’s favourite characters. Conor came to ACC with essentially no cricket experience but very good hand eye coordination from Hurl ing and trained harder than anyone else at the club to secure his position as opening batsmen for the ma jority of the season. I would also argue that he has the safest pair of hands at the club but that can be dis cussed over a beer another time.
As is the way with 8th Grade, we typically end up with a variety of players over the course of the season which affords the opportunity to inject some older and wiser heads into the changing line up. As a first year captain, the sagely advice of Burt Baetsen and Vince Stackpole in particular has been extremely help ful for the team and also for my own development and for that I thank them for their insight and assis tance. Performance wise, the win loss record of 2/12 doesn’t sound overly glamorous but with hand on heart I can say that we put in some extremely solid efforts and managed to put the fear of god into many of the higher placed teams this season with some very close results. Setting a defendable total and consistent batting stock was certainly the biggest issue we had this year and plenty more batting in the nets next season will go a long way towards rectifying this. Bowling and fielding wise, we set a fantastic standard for this grade with fielding and both of our wins came from exemplary displays in the field where catches were held and run out opportunities were taken. Our bowlers toiled hard week after week and were well led by the ever economical and probing line and lengths of James Dockery who certainly deserved his awards for bowling and best and fairest this season.
In closing, 2014/15 for 8th Grade was a season of new faces, a brilliant showcase of upcoming talent at ACC and noticeable improvement with the established players too. On a personal note, I thoroughly enjoyed the extra responsibility as captain and felt that it helped develop my own skillsets further. I would certainly welcome the opportunity to lead the lads again in 2015/2016. A particularly big thanks to all of the support staff who make the club run like clockwork behind the scenes. Everything from net coaches to bar staff to the cooks to the chairman of selectors; your work is invaluable to the ongoing success of this club. To my wife and all the other partners that gave up their men for the last 6 months, thank you on behalf of all the lads.
Bring on 2015/16! Kieran Vanpraag

This year was a bit of a struggle.
Unlike the previous two years, numbers were a massive issue this year with the side having only 7-8 ‘regulars’ with at least two constantly rotation ‘ring-ins’ every week. This not only made managing the team extremely difficult, but also was never good for the balance of the team. A huge thanks has to go to Len Blakey as Chairman of Selectors for the work he put in to finding us an 11th man late on a Saturday morning on numerous occasions.
Despite this, we managed to scrape into finals, mainly on the back of some terrific individual performances with both the bat and ball.
The season is best epitomised by our final two matches of the season, both against Murdoch Uni Melville. We faced up against them in round 18 with a depleted side and were facing a chase of 230 before rain interrupted our innings.
The next game (the Semi Final) we were back to full strength and rolled Murdoch Uni Melville for 123, ulti- mately falling 7 runs and 5 balls short of their target.
A bit more consistency within the team may have made all the difference throughout the year, however I must commend the lads for a fun-filled year and really stepping up when it mattered and getting us through to the finals for the 3rd year in a row.

Played: 16 Won: 13 Lost: 2 Draw: 1 Position Finished : 2nd LOST SEMI FINAL
The 2014/2015 season started full of promise for the one day 2s. After the retirement of Leroy Wardell–Johnson we were invigorated with 2 “new” recruits. Todd burgess who returned after a few years hiatus and his mate, Jeremy Harvey. Both guys fitted our demographic perfectly and were great fun to play with. Coming off a fantastic season the year before where we had finished 1st and won the flag, we were looking to go back to back this season. The home and away season saw us with a win/loss record of 13 victories, 2 losses and a 1 draw (which was a washout against last year’s grand final opposition, Western Suburbs). We finished on equal points with last year’s grand final opposition, Western Suburbs Green, but ended up 2nd due to a slightly inferior net run rate position. We were the highest scoring side for the year and lost the least number of wickets doing so. We were also the most miserly bowling attack, however, we took 12 less wickets than Western Suburbs Green (who played 1 extra game) and I presume this explains why we finished 2nd rather than 1st.
In any event, we were happy with the result which meant that we played Bentley in a semi–final at Winthrop. We had played Bentley twice during the season for 1 win apiece, however, we were confident going into the semi–final that we had Bentley’s measure. Bentley are a side with simi lar vintage players to us so it was a battle of age and experience.
We were greeted with the sight of a very unusual boundary marking at Winthrop Reserve where the contractor had managed to mark the boundary with a bench seat within the playing area.
Unfortunately, I lost the toss and Bentley chose to bat. They were 2–75 at the half–way mark and this was not a bad score on the slow ground with large boundaries. We struggled to contain them and to take wickets. This was not helped when I dropped their number 3 batsman who was eventually bowled by Rob Pulley for 61 runs. They ended up with 187 runs from their 40 overs, which was a large score to chase in a semi–final.
Darren Monument, as he had done all season, bowled well firing down 8 overs and taking 2–32. Bruce Calder was the pick of our bowlers and unlucky to only take 1 wicket, bowling his 7 overs and taking 1–24. Robert Pulley once again won the bowling aggregate for the side taking 26 wick ets at 13.04. Unfortunately, this was not quite enough to surpass Bert’s wicket–taking record but I’m sure Don has many more games ahead of him yet and it is making for an entertaining rivalry around the club.
Page 23 OD2 CAPTAINS REPORT CONTINUED
We were a side who had hit big scores all year and felt that if we got off to a good start we were a chance of chasing down the total. We started with an opening partnership of 68 from 16 overs and were well on track at that point. At the half–way mark we were 1–73, a very similar score to our opposition. We had Doug Stirling who was in sublime form and Rob Pulley who topped the batting aggregate in the competi tion with 597 runs, at the crease. Unfortunately, we could not get going after last drinks and failed to put together any reasonable partnerships despite our extensive batting line–up. To their credit, Bentley bowled well and kept the pressure on us, and as we all know, chasing large scores in finals is always a diffi cult proposition.
We ended up being bowled out for 159 in 38.1 overs thereby falling 18 runs short of a further grand final appearance. In some slight consolation, Bentley went on to win the felt.
It was an extremely disappointing end to the season as we had once again played solid and sometimes spec tacular cricket during the season. We regularly hit large scores throughout the year with 9 scores of over 180 and 5 scores of over 200. Most of our lower scores were due to batting 2nd and not having many to chase. Our highest score was 268 runs v Western Suburbs Gold, which included an amazing partnership of 102 runs between Adrian Hackett and Rhys Jenkins in 11 overs, with Hack making 81 not out of those runs.
Hack had an incredible season with the bat with 8 innings, 6 not outs, 1 century (103 not out), an aggre gate of 301 and an average of 150.5. Amazingly this was not sufficient to win the Association Batting Av erage Award. He won our batting average award.
Robert Pulley was clearly our Fairest and Best Player again playing all matches, batting in all matches, hitting 5 half centuries with a highest score of 92 runs, an aggregate of 597 and an average of 45.92. He also passed the career milestone of 7,000 runs. We had 4 batsmen in the top 11 for the aggregate for the year, which included Matt Campbell, Hack and Rhys Jenkins.
Doug Stirling who started the season late, had 9 innings and ended up with an aggregate of 290 runs. He hit a high score of 130 not out, carrying his bat v Fremantle Mosman Park. He also batted well in the semi –final for 40 runs.
Bowling–wise, in the same game that we hit 268 against a hapless Western Suburbs Gold, we also managed to bowl them out for 74. This saw our new recruit, Jeremy Harvey, put in his best bowling performance of the season, taking 4/10 from 5 overs.
Other notable bowling performances over the year were Rob Pulley with 4/24 v Fremantle Mosman Park and 5/30 v Murdoch University Melville Cricket Club. Ken MacPherson took 4/59 against Western Suburbs whilst Hack took 4/7 v Murdoch University Melville. Darren Monument, ever reliable, took 5/15 v Tuart Hill and had the most miserly economy rate in the competition of 2.66 runs per over.
Darren Monument took out the award for best bowling average with 17 wickets at 8.76. Don, Mono and Jono Seen (18 wickets at 14.22) were all in the top 11 bowlers (by wicket aggregate) for our grade.
Once again it was a very enjoyable season with a disappointing end result. We are certainly not getting any younger but I am sure we will be no less enthusiastic to take on the competition again in the 2015/2016 season. I would like to thank all the boys in our side for the support and their efforts over the year and the Club for once again giving me the opportunity to Captain a side for the wonderful ACC.
Onwards and upwards for next year!

The Applecross Cricket Club One Day 3 Division enjoyed a brilliant year both on and off the field for the 2014/2015 season. The side completed the season in 2nd place on the League Ladder and were very narrowly beaten in the Grand Final by only 1 wicket against League Leaders Tuart Hill.
Stefan Vucens, Garry Mawdesley, Mark Hattenfels, Stuart Kaschula and Dan Rogers all had fine years with the bat making over 200 runs for the season. Steven Wilson chipped in with very handy runs late in the innings to end up averaging 44.33. Mark Hattenfels made 3 50’s for the season.
Troy Sutherland had a brilliant year with the ball taking 23 wickets @ an average of 7.22, with two 5 for performances, best being 6 for 19. Troy also took 2 Hatricks for the season, a fantastic effort. Michael Ma her had a good season taking 16 wickets from 9 matches at an average of 11.75. Mark Wiley, Stephen Wil son, Russell Brownley and Staurt Kaschula all took over 10 wickets for the year.
Team Captain Garry Mawdesley played his 100th game for the Applecross Cricket Club and was presented with his club cap my fellow 100 Gamer Michael Maher before the match.
The highlight of the year batting wise was the brilliant 5th Round clash against Bedford Morley where the 8th Wicket Parnership between Mark Wiley and Ryan Hathrill was an excellent 200 runs.
Our Captain Garry Mawdesley did a fine job throughout the season and lead with positive tactics and read the games very well, making mostly the right moves. Also Vice Captain Stefan Vucens helped wherever he could and was able to lead the team well when Garry was not playing.
Also socially the team had a great year, with the season always friendly and social with good banter aa round. 3 times the average age of the team was taken, on each occasion it was around 47 years of age. So a true Old Boys team it was, what a great time had by all.
Thanks to Mr Murray Sutherland and Mr Geoff Stearn for their continued solid support to our team, they always help where they can and are there to help us out. Also thanks to Jen Hattenfels for her excellent help with Team Co ordination throughout the whole season.
We were proud of the season, frustrated that we could not end off the season with a Preniership, however realise that as a group playing as genuine Veterans, we had an excellent year.
Thanks to all of the players and squad that helped out during the season, we had 26 players play for the side during the season, a great thanks to everyone.

All Members of the Applecross Cricket Club have to come face to face with a magnificent challenge. We all have the opportunity to contribute to the foundations of a great cricket club. But we will fail the challenge unless we all possess a common goal. To make the Applecross cricket club the best club in suburban turf .
We must never lose sight of this goal, even in times of defeat. Cricket is a game of “ups” and “downs” ,of success and failure. The person who isn't prepared to take disappointment and at times second place, on the chin, soon falls by the wayside .the sign of a good player is the way he comes back after a run of failure .Good players don’t fall easily by the wayside when difficult situations arise .
