  • Melbourne Cricket Ground Trust Annual Report 2019-20
    Melbourne Cricket Ground Trust Annual Report 2019-20 (Artwork to be inserted) Chairman’s Report The context in which l write this report is unusual to say the least. I look back on the period of our last financial year (1 April 2019 to 31 March 2020 – the subject of this report) and remember 11 months of normality and strong outcomes for the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) precinct and then one month of huge upheaval and nervousness with the emergence and impact of the coronavirus pandemic. Looking forward, our thinking is both dominated and blurred by the uncertainties arising from the way the pandemic is unfolding globally, nationally and specifically here in Victoria. Its impacts effect everything we do and all our stakeholders, partners and our people. Every decision is made with multiple scenarios attached and with little capacity to control associated timelines. These are, indeed, unusual times. Our Executive Officer describes in more detail later in this report the facts and figures relating to activities and attendances at our stadium but suffice to say here that we had a bumper 2019 AFL season and an equally strong 2019/20 cricket season capped-off by the staging of the Women’s T20 World Cup played in early March this year between India and Australia in front of over 86,000 fans. The atmosphere at the Women’s final was electric and showcased the world’s two best T20 women’s cricket teams playing world class cricket. The local and international TV audiences were huge, testament to the now indisputable global and local interest in women’s sport.
