take this opportunity to thank our club for giving me the responsibility and opportunity of being Club President for season 2008/2009. It has been a very enjoyable experience. Presentation night is an opportunity to recognise and thank those who have worked hard to make Omega a great place to enjoy both on and off the field. Committee: Thank you to our two Vice-Presidents Vinnie Micalizzi and Charlie Yanni for their support and commitment over the year. Jacob Slucki has done a fantastic job at his first year as Treasurer and his contribution to our club in all areas should not be under estimated. We have invested heavily in improving our club this year and thanks to Jac we remain financially strong. Our Club would not function without the amazing hard work and dedication of Tracey Fletcher. Everyone here tonight should take the time to thank Tracey for the unbelievable commitment and effort that Tracey puts into our club. Our Junior Coordinator Chris Ryan has done a fantastic job and due to his hard work our Club’s junior program continues to be the envy of the competition. To our other committee members Steve Cruwys, Graham Wilson, Illya Fridman, Chippa and Clemo, thank you for your support and help with all that is involved in running our Club. Sponsors: Our club is reliant on the generosity and support of our sponsors and I would like to thank the following on behalf of myself and the Omega Cricket Club. Highett Branch Chris Wheeler and the team at the Bendigo Bank Highett have made a major contribution to improving our Club and we must make sure that if we have any Banking Business we at least give them the opportunity to present their services. This will go along way in us forming a long lasting relationship. Thank you for you support Chris This year our juniors received support from Mark Mosely and Declan Kelly from Dreamsafe Mattress Recyclers. Thank you Mark and Declan for your generous support. Jason Swift and Frank Ruffo continued their support of Omega and we are extremely appreciative of their contribution. Don’t forget to contact Jason or Frank if you need any help in any real estate or property management solutions. 3 Omega Cricket Club (CMCA) 2008/09 Season Review PRESIDENT’S REPORT – by Mal Lay (continued) A big thanks to Dave McHugh, the McHugh family and LMC for their support of Omega over a number of years.

  • 14 May: CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY V AJ WEBBE
    1 January: AUSTRALIA v ENGLAND (Second Test) (See scorecard at Cricket Archive, www.cricketarchive.co.uk/Archive/Scorecards/4/4921.html) Day 1 (report from Monday 3 January) Melbourne, Jan. 1 The second of the five test matches between Mr Stoddart’s team and All Australia began here to-day under the pleasantest conditions. Large at the start, the attendance went on increasing, till late in the afternoon there were 24,000 people on the ground. It was feared at first that owing to a small abscess in the throat Ranjitsinhji would have to stand out of the England eleven. However, after consulting a doctor, he found himself able to play, so Stoddart made way for him. The other player left out was Board. With Stoddart away Maclaren captained the side. Trott won the toss, and such a fine start was made by Australia that at the end of the day 283 runs had been scored for the loss of only three wickets. McLeod and Darling opened the innings to the bowling of Richardson and Hirst. The early batting was slow and marked by great caution. Richardson bowled four maiden overs in succession and the fielding was superb. With the total at 17, Briggs went on in place of Richardson, off whom only one run had been made. Darling scored eight in Briggs’s first over, and then, at 25, Richardson bowled at Hirst’s end. Darling did nearly all the hitting, getting 23 runs out of the first 27. As the game proceeded, the play became freer in character, Darling’s cutting being very clean and neat.

  • Kent County Cricketers a to Z
    Kent County Cricketers A to Z Part Two 1919-1939 By Derek Carlaw Statistics by John Winnifrith This collection of biographies have been written, on behalf of the ACS, by Derek Carlaw. For those readers wishing to obtain more detailed statistical information, it is recommended that a search is undertaken on the relevant pages of the CricketArchive website ( http://cricketarchive.com/ ). Kent County Cricketers A to Z Part Two 1919 to 1939 Introduction Part Two of the Kent A to Z covers the 92 cricketers who made their entry into first-class cricket for Kent between the wars. With 12 Championship titles, 330 wins and only 49 defeats, Yorkshire dominated throughout the two decades, but Kent could reasonably claim to be the most successful of the Southern counties, twice ending runners-up and in only three seasons failing to finish in the top half of the table. During those inter-war years, cricket was becoming increasingly professional. Of the names listed in the county averages in the 1921 Wisden, over 57% were amateurs. By 1931 the figure had fallen to 41%; and in the last pre-war season it was down to 33%. Kent, in common with one or two other counties, fought hard against the prevailing trend. Throughout the period, they stuck to their long- established policy of endeavouring to field a minimum of three amateurs in every match. In practice, they were quite frequently unable to do so, especially early in the season but, of the 92 cricketers listed in the following pages, 60, i.e. over 65%, were, in the idiom of the time, ‘Gentlemen’.
