Tanunda Cricket Club Season 2008/2009 TANUNDA CRICKET CLUB INC. 2008/2009 Season Statistics A GRADE PREMIERS 39/40 – 46/47 – 47/48 – 49/50 – 50/51 – 51/52 – 78/79 – 83/84 – 92/93 – 93/94 – 94/95 – 02/03 – 03/04 Tanunda Cricket Club Season 2008/2009 President’s Report Congratulations to Bradley Marshall and the U16’s on an excellent season; finishing top and winning the grand final was a very good achievement. This season we fielded five senior teams easily every week; a feat I personally thought would be a lot harder. The most pleasing thing being, they all made the finals. Unfortunately the A2’s and A4’s lost their semi finals, but to get three out of five senior teams into the grand final was an excellent year, it is very pleasing to see the numbers of players and spectators around the club. The morale at our club is unmatched in this association as the Tanunda Cricket Club is looked upon as the benchmark in cricket clubs. Thank you to my hard working committee; Peter Goers, Sam Cox, Elli Beer, Mellissa Roestenburg, Boh Wall, Paul Healy, Luke Samain, Chris Murphy, and George Akkermann. Your work behind the scenes often goes unnoticed but I know that a club that performs well off the field will reap the benefits on the field. Thank you to Pete Goers and Kym Vanstone for organizing our meals after training and Mark Hoklas and Pete Mernagh for their bar duties and keeping the pavilion tidy, your work often goes unnoticed but is surely appreciated. Well done to Bradley Marshall and the junior committee for another very successful year fielding U16’s U14’s and two U12 sides. Thank you to the junior coaches Brad Marshall, Michael Herd, Matthew Radzevicius and Craig Feilke; and all the parent helpers every week. The numbers at junior level indicate the strength of our club for future years. Our major sponsor this season was the Clubhouse; their support together with BG Building Group, Rogash Windows, Turkey Flat and Kaesler Wines makes valuable contribution to the running of our club. A big thank you also to all our $100 and $250 club sponsors. Thank you to Boh Wall our club coach for your efforts this season; working with large numbers at training and picking five senior sides is a big job. Your pre game thoughts are well received and I know you are idolized by many of our junior players. Boh was awarded captain of the SA Outbacks side played in the Barossa and Light Association Team and the Mid North side when he could. We are very lucky to have him as part of our club and hopefully soon he’ll get that illusive senior premiership. Our turf wicket is receiving high regards from everyone who plays on it. Thank you to Darren Gladigau for your continued efforts as curator. Thank you also to Strength Mechanical for maintaining our equipment during the year and Ian Frick for his helping hand with fertilizing and spraying. A GRADE PREMIERS 39/40 – 46/47 – 47/48 – 49/50 – 50/51 – 51/52 – 78/79 – 83/84 – 92/93 – 93/94 – 94/95 – 02/03 – 03/04 Tanunda Cricket Club Season 2008/2009 Over the Christmas break the association hosted the Australian country carnival, which meant we had to cater for six days of cricket in just under two weeks. A big thank you to Spud Murphy for running this carnival with lots of help from the whole cricket club. The positive comments he received from interstate people is testament to all the hard work he put in over that fortnight. It is an honor to be a part of this club, let alone be president of it. To field a side in every grade in seniors and juniors is a great achievement and something that will continue into the future. We have a good blend of experience and youth and I believe big things are just around the corner. Thank you to everyone who contributed to our great club in any way this season, we now all know what it feels like to lose so lets all make the effort to turn it around next year.

Without their support, such things as the turf wicket, the bowling machine, new cricket equipment, sightscreens and shirts would not have been possible.

At first I thought what are we getting ourselves into and 5 sides it can’t be done. Yes it can. To have all 5 senior sides make the finals is a great effort. Well done and thank you to the 75+ senior players who made themselves available to play cricket this season. It made my job easier having your commitment to your respective sides each week and I hope you got plenty of enjoyment from this great game this season. Unfortunately we were not able to bring home any premierships from the 3 teams that made the grand final but I hope we learnt a lot from the games and will bounce back next year. Thank you and well done to the U/16 players this season. It was great having you lads involved with senior training and games and I look forward to following your cricket careers in the future. I believe the U/16’s are second most important team in our club as if you don’t have juniors progressing into seniors, there is no future for the club. Congrats also on being premiers. Well done to the senior committee this season. I believe our club is in a strong position both on and off the field because we have good people in important positions that really care about the cricket club. However 3 people stand out to me when it comes to caring about the club Darren Graetz, Pete Goers and Chris Murphy are as passionate as can be and we are lucky to have them involved with the running of our club. Thank you to all the sponsors who put money into our club, especially the Clubhouse without your support we could not take to the field each week. I look forward to your support again next season. Thank you Darren Gladigau for being the curator again this season. I believe we have the best oval and pitch in the association and for most of our A1 home games they have both been in excellent condition. Thanks Shane Kinlock for helping to run the nets at Thursday night training, was great having you back around the club. Thanks to the 4 other captains and Spud for your support and advice towards selection and the organization of your teams. Obviously there is more to just rocking up and playing every Saturday and without you blokes giving a shit things would not get done. Eg Matting, gear, score boards, new balls, sight-screens, bunting, line marking, carpooling are just a few things that need to be done each week. I get a great deal of satisfaction out of seeing Tanunda teams and individuals perform well each Saturday. I am already looking forward to season 2009/10 and the ups and downs that season will bring. We have a good mix of younger and more experienced players at our club and I see no reason why all sides cannot be successful again next season. Stay safe over winter, Go The Saints and I will catch you all next season.
