This side has been performing well across both formats so far this season and we hope can bring home our first silverware for the season! This is an outstanding effort given the loss of coach Leigh Drennan but the combined efforts of people like Jess Joseph, Ange Treloar, Caroline Ward and Lauren Ebsary have ensured the girls have been well looked after – we hope to make a formal announcement on the Women’s Coach in the near future. We are starting to face challenges with selection in our senior men’s sides due to the recommencement of college cricket and having a few players still out injured or selected for higher honours. I’d like to thank the junior players and coaches for helping to ensure we can field sides, although this does make it more and more difficult as the selection difficulties slide down from team to team. However, our club is a proud, united and resilient one which operates on a philosophy of club first, team second and individual third. These experiences will only benefit the club in the long term, so I ask that we all stay positive and think of the big picture, while we deal with such challenges. Although the on-field results have not been to the level we would like for our senior men, the opportunities that have been offered to younger players will be invaluable to the future of our club and it has been great to see many young men step up and perform well in higher grades. We still have a few junior teams right in the hunt for finals this season and after the U17 Shield team also made a Grand Final, it is clear there is much to look forward to for the future of this club. It has been great to see Kelvin Smith regain his place in the Redbacks, joining Callum Ferguson, Kane Richardson and Spencer Johnson as Eagles selected for the Redbacks this season. It would be remiss not to mention a former junior of ours, Harry Nielsen, who also debuted for the Strikers and Redbacks in recent weeks and of course made a magnificent century in his first innings. Many people at the club maintain close contact with Harry and I’m sure there were many proud people to see him succeed at this level as another product of our junior pathways. Our 20-year celebration of the move to Henley Oval was a great event, adding to other successful member functions including the 100 Club and Christmas Show. I look forward to catching up with past players and members for the Golden Eagle Luncheon at Glenelg Oval on Friday 16th March. Finally, I would like to congratulate immediate past President Denis Brien on the overwhelming response to his book “All the Kings’ Men”. We could not have anticipated such a strong response, which included an article in The Weekend Australian, and Denis has generously donated all the profits back into Junior Development for the club. There are still copies available, so please contact Denis if you have not yet secured yours! Good luck to all teams for the remainder of the season.
