Apologies: Adam Clark, Steve Mullen, Denis James, Ian Anderson, Darren Novacek 1. Minutes from previous meeting • The minutes from the 2014/15 Annual General Meeting were tabled by the Chair. • Minutes accepted by Peter Gourlay and seconded by Steven Knight without change. 2. Season reports President’s Report (Trevor Doody) • Trevor noted the mixed onfield senior results for the season – 1st XI finished 8th, 2nd XI were North-West premiers, 3rd XI finished 5th and 4th XI in their first season as a turf team finished 3rd. A key positive was the large number of younger senior players (16-20yrs) who played on turf this season. This can only hold the club in a strong position for future years. • Junior teams had good seasons with one team U12(3) winning a premiership and several others playing finals. • A key positive for the season was the 86 people who volunteered to support the club in some form. Trevor thanked all for their assistance who, along with sponsors, make it possible to run the club successfully. • Trevor discussed the ongoing capital works at the club: - new changerooms at the club are scheduled to be ready for use next cricket season. - the Moonee Valley Council will replace the fence around Lebanon Reserve to improve safety and prevent balls rolling under. Work expected to commence in July 2016. - the Club was successful in receiving a grant from the State Government and Cricket Victoria to assist with the installation of second pitch at Strathnaver Reserve. Further liaison with the Council is necessary to have the pitch installed for next season. - The Council is currently consulting with the Club and Strathmore Soccer Club about improved car parking facilities at Strathnaver. Additional parking is expected to assist as more teams play at Strathnaver. • Trevor updated members on progress of the VTCA’s restructuring of the competition 3 | P a g e following the decision of southern clubs to leave the association. The major decision point is how many teams will be in Senior Division – 8,10 or 12. Strathmore’s preference is for 8 teams as it allows everyone to play each twice in a season (a one-day and a two-day game). • Trevor advised that Club captain Scott Sanders will not be returning to the Club next season. A search for Club coach/captain is ongoing. • One of the key challenges and aspirations for next season is to establish the Club’s first female team. The hope is to build on the success of SFC female team. AGM report contains more information on these and other matters. Treasurer’s Report (Steve Papastergiou) • The Club officially posted a profit of $3280 this season. • Bar income was up $21000 on 2014/15. • There was a gross profit from trading of $7500. This is in stark contrast to the gross loss from trading suffered last season of $10000. • Fundraising – revenue up $3500 or 21% on 2014-15. This increase can be largely attributed to the chocolate drive the club ran this season. • Operating expenses were down $2200 from $186000 to $164000. This was achieved mainly through lower function expenses and a 25% decrease in incentive payments. The decrease in part occurred because of the complete wash out of Round 9. • However, the club’s other income streams overall were down ($-29000). There are a couple of concerns. Namely, the decrease of Function Ticket Sales (-$10600) and Sponsorship (-16100). • Sponsorship, in particular, was hard hit by a couple of large sponsors no longer contributing financially to the club to the same level. This will be a significant challenge to rectify for next season. 3. 2015/16 Executive Positions • President: Trevor Doody nominated by Peter Gourlay, seconded by Danny McConville. Trevor elected unopposed. • Vice President / Junior Coorindator: Danny McConville nominated by Peter Gourlay, second by Steve Papastergiou. Danny elected unopposed. • Secretary: Frank Merzel nominated by Trevor Doody, seconded by Lou Marini. Frank elected unopposed. • Treasurer: Steve Papastergiou nominated by Danny McConville, seconded by Ross Higgins. Steve elected unopposed. 4. General Committee Positions The following people were elected to the General Committee: Nominee Nominated by Seconded by Adam Clarke Lee Evans Lou Marini Jason Cuthbertson John Pantland Steve Papastergiou Steve Jones Danny McConville Lou Marini Steve Mullen Trevor Doody Lee Evans 4 | P a g e John Bassi Steve Papastergiou Trevor Doody Denis James Lee Evans Frank Merzel John Pantland Peter Wenlock Ross Higgins Peter Hinton Lee Evans Lou Marini Allison Dodd Trevor Doody John Pantland Graham Matson Trevor Doody Ross Higgins Dave Hosking Danny McConville Lou Marini Lee Evans Steve Papastergiou Trevor Doody Trevor Doody thanked those who had nominated and accepted positions on the Committee and noted the significant contributions of those that are stepping off the Committee, namely Peter Wenlock, Nancy-Lee Merzel and Darren Novacek. Further nominations for the General Committee will be accepted prior to the season at the discretion of the Executive Committee. 5. General Business End of Season Ball • Yvonne Dodd raised a concern about the 1st and 2nd XIs not coming into the clubrooms after a game to have a drink with the opposition and other members. This issue was noted and will be discussed further at Executive and General Committee meetings prior to the season to encourage more player engagement post game. Next Meeting: May 2017 (date TBC) 5 | P a g e PRESIDENT’S REPORT To all Strathmore Cricket Club members, Firstly, I would like to sincerely thank the General Committee and the Executive Committee, for their enormous efforts and support throughout 2016/17. As a club, we are very fortunate to have a large number of wonderful people who continue to keep our club strong. We fielded an incredible 17 teams this season and a Milo In2Cricket Program, which is almost 210 players representing the Strathmore Cricket Club each weekend. So, to all committee members and all other people who volunteered their time this season, a huge thank you from all 210 players, for making it possible. From an Executive Committee perspective, Frank Merzel moved into our club Secretary role and took over like a seasoned veteran. Apart from running all our administration, our player registrations, our scoreboard programming and securing a wonderful cook for all our meals (Rowena), Frank also managed to score for our 2nd XI. An incredible contribution, so thank you Frank. Lee Evans, our previous Secretary, moved into a new role as Head of Strategy, focussing on key infrastructure projects, including our second wicket at Strathnaver. We were also very fortunate to have Life Member Allison Dodd join our Executive Committee as Head of Members, bringing a new focus on player welfare. Daniel McConville had another wonderful year with our juniors, while Lui Marini continued to grow the depth of talent at our club in his Head of Senior Cricket role. A huge thank you must also go to Steve Papastergiou for not only being our Treasurer once again but also running the bar like clock- work. Thanks Stinga. On-field This season the VTCA moved into a new structure, with all the southern clubs leaving the VTCA to join a new Cricket Victoria association. This change also lead to the VTCA Senior division being reduced from 12 teams to 8 teams, enabling a 2 Day game and a 1 Day game to be played between all team. We finished the season in 6th position, which was a fantastic result given we had failed to win a game before Christmas and then stormed home to win 4 of our last 6 games after Christmas. Both our losses were against Yarraville, who went on to win the 2016/17 premiership. John Patton returned to Captain/Coach our club for his 3rd season and although results did not go our way before Christmas, John continued to focus on the positives and introduced several changes to help successfully change the momentum. John has decided to move back to his home town of Adelaide next season, with a new job, a new house and a new partner. On behalf of the whole club, I would like to thank John for his fantastic support and leadership for the past years and wish him all the very best for the years to come. This season, we decided to invest further in our younger senior players by recruiting David Tate as our Senior Development Coach. A selection of 16 players aged 16-21 were identified as being the players most likely to become members of our 1st XI team over the next 10 years. David’s role was to focus individually of each of these players to help them become regular members of our 2nd XI and pushing for a 1st XI spot. All 16 players jumped at this opportunity and by the end of the season, 4 of these players – Chris Williams, Jack Condon, Jack Tate and Tom Stevenson were all playing and contributing within our 1st XI 6 | P a g e team.

  • Leg Before Wicket Douglas Miller Starts to Look at the Most Controversial Form of Dismissal
    Leg Before Wicket Douglas Miller starts to look at the most controversial form of dismissal Of the 40 wickets that fell in the match between Gloucestershire and Glamorgan at Cheltenham that ended on 1st August 2010 as many as 18 of the victims were dismissed lbw. Was this, I wondered, a possible world record? Asking Philip Bailey to interrogate the files of Cricket Archive, I discovered that it was not: back in 1953/54 a match between Patiala and Delhi had seen 19 batsmen lose their wickets in this way. However, until the start of the 2010 season the record in English first-class cricket had stood at 17, but, barely credibly, Cheltenham had provided the third instance of a match with 18 lbws in the course of the summer. Gloucestershire had already been involved in one of these, against Sussex at Bristol, while the third occasion was the Sussex-Middlesex match at Hove. Was this startling statistic for 2010 an indication that leg before decisions are more freely given nowadays? It seemed to correlate with an impression that modern technology has given umpires a better feel for when a ball is likely to hit the wicket and that the days when batsmen could push forward and feel safe were now over. I determined to dig deeper and examine trends over time. This article confines itself to matches played in the County Championship since World War I. I propose looking at Tests in a future issue. The table below shows how the incidence of lbw dismissals has fluctuated over time.

Reverse sweeps make me shudder; KP’s attacks (when batting, that is) made me bewail the lack of a basic straight-bat technique and David Warner just makes me think – slogger! And so on. However, Brendon McCullum is another matter entirely. Watching New Zealand lose early wickets in their second Test against Australia and seeing the talented Kane Williamson inching to just three runs in over sixty deliveries was a painful experience until the world turned upside down. Having been beaten comprehensively by his first ball, Brendon McCullum sliced the next ball over the slips for four and then began to construct something of true wonder. With most bowlers going for barely one an over, Mitchell Marsh entered the attack and jaw-droppingly, saw his first over go for twenty one runs.

  • 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’.

  • NWM Centurions and Near-Misses Nasim-Ul-Ghani, England V
    NWM Centurions and Near-Misses Nasim-ul-Ghani, England v Pakistan, Second Test, Lord’s, June 1962 Pakistan toured in 1962 for their second Test series in England, having drawn the first in 1954. Accustomed at home to dead turf wickets, the Pakistan players struggled. They were to win only four of their 29 tour games. However, despite generally poor results, before the Lord’s Test Pakistan surprised Yorkshire at Bradford (Yorkshire 246 and 137, Pakistan 285 and 28 for none), gaining what the Times described as a moral victory and instilling hope for Lord’s. Hopes were harboured, for different reasons, by the ground authorities. For some years, a ridge at the Nursery End had caused balls to rise nastily. From the mid-1950s bruises and chipped bones were commonplace, together with early finishes. For the Test against South Africa in 1960 the wickets were pitched a yard closer to the pavilion in an attempt to take the ridge out of play. After a lively Ashes Test in 1961, the MCC had the square inspected and decided to excavate and re-lay over the back end. They were hopeful the pitch for the Test against Pakistan in 1962 would be true. Quite apart from the damage to batsmen, early finishes to Lord’s Tests had rather harmed the bank balance. Hopes were dashed when, faced with a humid atmosphere and a green pitch, Javed Burki decided to bat. Fred Trueman and Len Coldwell enjoyed their morning, sending Pakistan in for lunch at 76 for six. Over the next day or so, England built up a first innings lead of 270 and thirty minutes before the close of play on Friday, Pakistan fell to 77 for four.

  • 1867 to 1884 - CHALLENGE LACROSSE
    1867 to 1884 - CHALLENGE LACROSSE It was a very different game back in the 19th Century. It was field lacrosse, the sticks were wooden and players wore baseball caps but nothing for protection. Matches were not timed. Instead the first team to win three games (score three goals) won the contest. When timed lacrosse was introduced it lasted for 4 twenty minute quarters. The goals initially consisted of two poles. Eventually a cross bar and net were added. There were four different playing positions: home, midfield, defence and goaltender. The home players were responsible for most of the scoring, like a soccer striker. Midfielders had to be the most versatile, especially the centreman. He took the draws and quarterbacked the offence. Defencemen obviously played defence - without the advantage of today's long stick. The goaltender was very different from the modern game. He wore no protective padding and normally held his stick at shoulder height. When facing a clear shot he would move out of his crease to cut down the shooting angle or charge the shooter in the hope of blocking the shot or creating a turnover. One other key difference: there were no rules governing player movement. This allowed defencemen, even goalkeepers to constantly rush up field. It also meant that a team clinging to a lead could pack all their runners into the defensive end. Native Canadians had always played the game. For Canadians of European descent, it started in Montreal in the 1860s. In 1866 the National Lacrosse Association, later National Lacrosse Union (N. L. U.) was formed and a pennant provided for competition.
