Our results at top end of the club have been somewhat underwhelming besides some notable individual efforts. However, it must be noted, and it is great to see, that several of our players continue to gain recognition with higher honours, which unfortunately at times, can impact club results. On another positive note, we have seen a strengthening in our men’s 2nd-4th grade performances and have had some very pleasing results from our junior sides especially in the T20 format, where all teams made the semi-finals, with two progressing to the GF’s. Our women, while certainly being very competitive, still have some very important games to come to see just where they sit, but we’d hope the 1st Team are right in the mix for another premiership tilt. This year we have added more emphasis on Junior player development. To that extent we have implemented a couple of small, but I feel important initiatives recently. A future (juniors) leadership program has been started under the watchful eye of past player/ coach/president Scott Jones and we’ve seen U.16 players taking on the 13th Man duties in 1st Grade T20 games to give them an insight into how our elite players play the game. We are still committed to funding improvements in our training and playing facilities through changeroom, net & lighting upgrades, the former hitting another “slight” delay with council and the other two being in the grant assessment process. I would like to think by continuing to work hand in hand with SACA and Henley FC with these initiatives we are continuing to build on these very important relationships too. While on the topic of building relationships, we are endeavouring to work with our local Community Cricket Clubs and have set times for some of our senior players/leaders to attend training sessions to help coach some of their junior teams throughout February. Several of our players have also represented these local clubs in T20 games. We recently celebrated our second Pink Stumps Day which helps to raise funds for the McGrath Foundation, and we have received great feedback from other clubs and the greater community with our endeavours there. It was fantastic to see Peter George in town to play a couple of T20 games in early January and be part of PSD at Henley oval in an off-field capacity. This an initiative we’d love to grow as it gives the club great exposure and certainly very much helped us win last year’s SA Premier Cricket Club of the year award. In another charitable exercise, the senior group lead by Jess Joseph & Jordan Capel raised significant money to help with the Bushfire Relief Appeal by holding an iPod Shuffle night in late January. These types of efforts give our club the ability to give back and further improve our standing in both the cricket & local communities. Back to cricket, we look forward to seeing what the last part of the season brings, hopefully some finals from a few of our teams and lots of continued improvement from all our players. I know the Men’s Cricket Committee has had several fruitful meetings and are well into the planning for season 20/21. Our (new look) Junior committee is Page 6 staring to have an impact and getting in the swing of things, while our Women’s Cricket Committee and coaches keep impressing us all.
