While competition numbers remained stable there is no doubt junior clubs have to work hard to attract players while senior clubs struggle with players’ ability to commit each Saturday due to work and other activities. With these thoughts in mind I congratulate the management of all Clubs on their dedication to providing the environment where players of all ages can enjoy their cricket, maintaining and building friendships and most importantly engage in healthy physical and social activity. The Association Committee continue to look at ways to promote our great game and it was encouraging to see a strong increase in U/8 registrations and also the number of junior players continuing into the senior ranks. A number of new In2Cricket centres were started during the season and we hope to see many of these young players joining clubs next season. Again this year I’d like to thank the many external organisations who provide assistance to cricket in our District. Our sponsors many of whom are very long term, are extremely generous with their financial contributions, while our local Councils, Hurstville, Kogarah and Rockdale continue to provide the grounds and training facilities. We are also indebted to our Umpires League, NSW Districts and Cricket NSW for their assistance. As you read through this report you will note many outstanding individual and team achievements and I congratulate all winning teams and individual award winners on their success and thank coaches, managers, scorers and team officials for their contributions. You will also note the reports of our representative teams. Two sides, Watson and Creak, made the finals series in what are always tough competitions. I’m sure our players learnt a lot from the experience of playing with the best against the best. I thank our managers and coaches for their hard work with the players and also our Rep Team Co-ordinator, Rick Francis for his oversight of the representative program. After 13 years in the role our Auditor, Geoff Thoroughgood has decided to stand down. Prior to this position Geoff was the Senior Association Treasurer for 12 seasons. We are fortunate to have benefitted from his outstanding knowledge and ability and sincerely thank Geoff for his outstanding contribution. In conclusion I would like to thank club delegates and the Committee for their support and work throughout the season. Our secretarial responsibilities were in the hands of the St George DCC CEO, Jon Jobson and we thank Jon and the Club for this assistance. Competition Secretaries, Ron Ryan and Danny Williams with the support of Registrars Ken Tildsley and Matt Boland ensured the competitions ran smoothly. Assistant Secretary, Peter Smith, Treasurer, Rick Francis and Publicity Officer, Tom Davies handled their roles efficiently. Mick Abel and Michael Venn again served on the committee and were strong contributors.

Membership at 22 members represented a decrease of 1 member from the previous season. This number includes 3 active Life Members and 19 members who are joint members of our League and NSWCU&SA. The number of members available to actively officiate each week averaged 4-6, generally permitting coverage of one grade each round, with each grade receiving official umpires at least 3 times, in some cases 4 times, throughout the competition rounds. We were also able to ensure that all NSWDCA Inter-Association matches in which our Association participated were provided with an official umpire. I sincerely thank my fellow executive committee members and other officers for their efforts in maintaining the smooth running of our League throughout the season, as well as those members who regularly attended our monthly General Meetings. At the end of the season we were able to provide all Semi Final matches with 1 official umpire and all Preliminary Final matches with 2 official umpires. This was achieved with the assistance of Greg Stubbings from Mortdale Heights CC and we sincerely thank Greg and his Club for their contribution. Congratulations are extended to the following Premiership winners and officiating umpires who were appointed to our local Seniors’ Finals: 1st Grade Illawarra Catholic Club Umpires: Graeme Fleming & Craig Rudolph 2nd Grade De La Salle Kingsgrove Umpires: Graeme Redman & Roger Ridgway 3rd Grade Illawarra Catholic Club Umpires: Kevin Felton & Jeff Smith 4th Grade Ramsgate RSL Umpires: John Kirkness & Allan Smith Similarly, to the following members appointed to officiate in the NSWDCA Inter-Association finals series: Graeme Fleming: Moore Shield Qualifying Final, Gee Shield Final, Martin Shield Qualifying Final, Martin Shield Semi Final, Telegraph Shield Final. Roger Ridgway: Moore Shield Qualifying Final, Gee Shield Final, Martin Shield Qualifying Final, Martin Shield Semi Final, Telegraph Shield Final. Peter Smith: Martin Shield Semi Final. Within the local competition congratulations go to Ziad Abbas from Arncliffe Banksia Sports Club for winning the Jim Mitchell Trophy for Best and Fairest player in 1st Grade competition. This trophy is awarded on a 3- 2-1 points basis each game as determined by the Umpires League. Finally, our gratitude is extended to NSWCUSA for their continued support of our League, particularly through their Administration Manager Troy Penman and Liaison Officer Neil Findlay. We look forward to continuing our good relationship with the Executive Committee of GRSGDCA and to another successful season again next year. Roger Spindler President VALE LIFE MEMBER JACK STANTON In April this year Jack Stanton, one of our Life Members, lost his battle with illness. He was just short of his 87th birthday. Jack was awarded Life Membership of the Georges River Penshurst Boys Competition in 1981, having served nine years on the Association Executive including six years as Competition Secretary. As the father of three boys Jack managed numerous junior sides for ICC (where he was also a Life Member and Patron), continuing this commitment after his sons had graduated to the senior ranks. He was also appointed by the Association to select and manage various representative teams. Jack’s involvement in local cricket continued to the Grade Club where he served on the Management Committee for many years and was also awarded Life Membership. In the fledgling years of the GRP Juniors and indeed ICC Jack Stanton worked tirelessly to promote cricket, helping to build the strong foundations of both organisations.

  • Thank You 2020 Annual Report
    Thank You 2020 Annual Report 1 Our mission is simple. A message from our Board President and Executive Director Dear Friends, Needless to say, 2020 was dominated by the multitude of challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic. With your help, however, Save The Bay stayed the course through a turbulent year. On a personal and professional level, every member of our team had to adjust suddenly to a radically new environment, but the constraints we faced in 2020 did not prevent us from achieving important progress. Our education team pivoted quickly to create an interactive, remote learning experience called “Breakfast by The Bay.” Over the course of last spring and summer, our educators created a rich library of educational materials for children, parents and teachers, and refined our teaching skills to accommodate distance learning. We have continued to adapt our education programs to meet the needs of our educational partners in this most unusual year. From an advocacy perspective, we continued interacting with partners, regulatory agencies and the scientific community. Our team advanced restoration of freshwater wetlands systems, river systems and salt marshes. We helped Bay communities to plan, implement and secure financing for climate adaptation projects. The advocacy team also remained vigilant, monitoring development projects and helping prevent major loss of freshwater wetlands in Tiverton, while continuing to promote public access and working with Southside Providence community partners to build momentum for a new public access point along the Providence waterfront. In the spirit of making lemonade out of lemons, we also made the most of the forced closure of our facilities, public programs and events.

  • Laughing at American Democracy: Citizenship and the Rhetoric of Stand-Up Satire
    LAUGHING AT AMERICAN DEMOCRACY: CITIZENSHIP AND THE RHETORIC OF STAND-UP SATIRE Matthew R. Meier A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2014 Committee: Ellen Gorsevski, Advisor Khani Begum Graduate Faculty Representative Alberto González Michael L. Butterworth, Co-Advisor © 2014 Matthew R. Meier All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Michael L. Butterworth and Ellen Gorsevski, Co-Advisors With the increasing popularity of satirical television programs such as The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and The Colbert Report, it is evident that satirical rhetoric has unique and significant influence on contemporary American culture. The appeal of satirical rhetoric, however, is not new to the American experience, but its preferred rhetorical form has changed over time. In this dissertation, I turn to the development of stand-up comedy in America as an example of an historical iteration of popular satire in order to better understand how the rhetoric of satire manifests in American culture and how such a rhetoric can affect the democratic nature of that culture. The contemporary form of stand-up comedy is, historically speaking, a relatively new phenomenon. Emerging from the post-war context of the late 1950s, the form established itself as an enduring force in American culture in part because it married the public’s desire for entertaining oratory and political satire. In the late 1950s and early 1960s, a generation of stand- up comedians including Mort Sahl, Lenny Bruce, and Dick Gregory laid the foundation for contemporary stand-up comedy by satirizing politics, racism, and social taboos.
