Being more heavily involved with Prahran as President has been challenging at times, invigorating at other times, but beyond anything, a true belief this club has so much potential. When I took over, the club was still in a phase of regrouping, we had managed our way through the season on- field while Phil and the committee had brought things back into control off field. In my first full year it was clear we needed to set a Vision for the club that would ultimately align everyone on what we aspired to be. The committee, along with several current and past players, coaches, sponsors, life members, CV and CA representatives, spent several sessions refining our Vision and aspirations for the club. We also developed our core behaviours and the pillars that supported the Vision. This was an enormous task and milestone, one the club should be proud of, and one that will help us give belief to what we are trying to accomplish. As with any good strategy once developed, we needed to ensure we had the right personnel to help deliver and enable our plan. This meant we needed a change in our structure, which brought about a change in our male coaching staff, while bolstering our female coaching staff. Change is always difficult, but a year on and I can truly say, we can see the ‘green shoots’. We have built some momentum and it’s gathering pace - with the best truly ahead of us. Overall, I want to acknowledge and thank those that have played such a significant part in building the base of our plans to ensure we can now start to forge ahead and deliver our Vision for Prahran Cricket Club. Without your commitment and discretionary effort, I am not sure where we may have been. Thank you to all the players, men and women, for supporting the club’s Vision. Season 2018-19 brought with it signs of great individual performances as well as team performances. The Men’s 3rd XI where consistent all year and fully deserved the top 4 position. To Sam Hill who led from the front and built belief, pride and a sense of ‘how to win’, I thank you. The 3rd XI set the tone for what we as a Club need to represent and, ultimately, how we set our future aspirations. For the 1st XI, we saw performances that gave one the belief that we’re not far off finals as a team. Who can forget the victory over Fitzroy and the near misses against St Kilda, Carlton and Melbourne Uni? It could easily have been a different season. Thank you to Jake Hancock returning from Tasmania to captain the First XI. Jake consistently set the standard and I have no doubt will continue to grow from strength to strength. The 2nd XI were in the top 8 mix all year, and for the second consecutive year, let it slip through due to some matches being lost from the jaws of victory. The 2nds are a more than capable side and when they put all the parts together could easily beat any team in the competition. Thank you to Steve De Bolfo who came into captain the side and consistently marshalled his troops well. The Men’s 4th XI had a difficult year, when it came to the scoreboard, but a year where there has been so much learning and development with a strong nucleus of players. I am confident with another year of experience the 4th XI will be a team that is very competitive next season. To Tom Collins who was asked to captain the team, a massive thank you, you were always upbeat, led from the front and truly created the culture we are striving for at Prahran.
