Chairman's Report CHAIRMAN’S REPORT The 2017/18 financial year and cricket season was another successful one for PCC as it seeks to become (or otherwise remain) the leading cricket club across the Auckland region, as stated in the Club’s 3-year Strategic Plan. I summarise the year as follows: 1. Overview The 2017/18 season started with junior playing numbers similar to the prior year (688 vs. 679), while total numbers were up by 18 to 881. This was a pleasing result given the significant growth (18%) in junior playing numbers over the prior 2 years since the World Cup was co-hosted by NZ and Australia in Feb / March 2015. We have been able to maintain our numbers following this highly promotional event while many clubs across Auckland and NZ have lost ground over the past 12 months. The Club had 2 players chosen for the BLACKCAPS during the season (Lockie Ferguson and Mark Chapman) while a third enjoyed his second season with the Auckland Aces (Ben Horne). Of equal importance was the re-emergence of women’s cricket with PCC fielding its first Premier and Premier Reserve teams in Auckland Cricket Association (ACA) competitions since 2010. The total number of females playing for PCC in all grades rose from 74 in the prior season to 84. On-field results were positive overall despite the Men’s Premier team failing to win an ACA title. The men’s 2nd and 3rd XI’s, after both being promoted to higher grades following very strong results in the prior season, performed creditably with the 3rd XI winning their 1-day (limited overs) title. Our junior rep results were also very pleasing with representation at EDCA level up on prior season with 60 PCC rep players chosen making up 42% of EDCA’s total numbers across all 7 grades (boys and girls), this figure being 37% in 2016/17. Our financial results were in line with budget while a small surplus was achieved. Capital expenditure included the construction of an office in the Terry Jarvis Centre (TJC) for our new Director of Cricket, Phil Horne, 2 portable nets for use on the grass wicket block as well as nearby artificial wickets, and new astroturf laid in the TJC in April this year. PCC’s performance in meeting a wide range of higher targets as set by ACA in our Service Level Agreement with them was good at 75 out of the 85 targets met and one of the leading clubs the Auckland region that now involves 16 separate cricket clubs. Volunteer relations were positive overall, this reflective of the efforts and experience of our Junior Committee, Junior Grade Co- ordinators, and Board. Finally, the Club benefitted from the services of its Director of Cricket (Phil Horne) over 11 months of the financial year, a newly created position that involved leading the entire operations of PCC ie. all 10 work streams as detailed in the Club’s Strategic Plan. We are delighted to have Phil on board with us in this role after what was a thorough recruitment process with a very high level of interest shown in the role. All paid positions within the Club, including all coaching staff, have reported to Phil since his start in the role on 3rd July 2017. 2. Junior Playing Results: ACA titles won (from Grade 6 to Grade 9/10): Year 6 Premier Plate Championship (Parnell Hadlee) Year 8a Championship, Pool 3 (Parnell Simpson) Years 9/10 T20 Premier Championship, White Pool (Parnell Wallace) Under 15a Girls Future Hearts (Parnell Diamonds) ACA District Tournaments In terms of Auckland Districts junior rep cricket EDCA won the Peter Badley Shield for the 3rd time in 4 years, this contested across the 5 Districts that make up the Auckland region, an excellent achievement and reflective of the high-quality coaching and administration of this progressive regional cricket association. Annual junior rep fixtures against neighbouring clubs (Years 3 to 7): v. Grafton United CC Nov 2016 6 wins, 3 losses v. Auckland University CC Dec 2016, 6 wins, 6 losses v. Howick Pakuranga CC Feb 2017, 8 wins, 2 losses v. Cornwall CC March 2017, 4 wins, 5 losses The Club took part in the inaugural J T Sparling Super Series over the summer against the above 4 clubs, plus 2 others, finishing a close second overall behind Cornwall CC - please refer to our Junior Chairman’s Report for more details. These impressive results are reflective of the quality and quantity of the Club’s professional coaching. I would like to thank the following people for their contributions over the year: Jeremy Boucher for his strong commitment and efforts spent as Junior Chairman All volunteers who give up their time to see the Club and their respective team(s) enjoy a happy and successful season. All Grade Coordinators (Year 1 to Year 9/10) and Members of the Junior Committee. James Dudson and Jon Tierney for their respective roles in representing PCC on the ECDA Committee, selecting EDCA teams and ensuring ACA District tournaments are run successfully. Senior Playing Results: ACA titles won: 4th Grade Limited Overs Championship (3rd XI) Our Premier Men’s team finished in 6th place from 8 teams that contested in the ACA Hedley Howarth 2-day competition, leading the points table over the pre-Xmas period however falling away over the latter half of the season. The team was knocked out of the semi-final of the Jeff Crowe Cup (1-day) and quarter final of the T20 competition. The team performed admirably however and was a credit to the club, always playing within the spirit of cricket under the astute captaincy of Dave Goddard and highly experienced coaching of Ian Trott until late January when he departed PCC to take up a 3- year coaching contract with Auckland Grammar School. This team won 2 important ACA awards: The Spirit of Cricket Award, as decided by Auckland’s Premier Grade umpires, and the Grosvenor Cup for the Best All Round Team as also determined by the umpires. Ian Trott was in his 11th consecutive season with PCC and has shown a very high level of loyalty and commitment to PCC over this period. He has since been replaced by Ian West as PCC’s Head Coach, Ian having coached the Auckland A men’s rep and GUCC men’s premier teams during 2017/18 while also performing the role of Director of Cricket at EDCA. Ian started in his role with us on 1st May 2018 and has been very active since. As mentioned our Men's 2nd and 3rd XI’s both performed admirably in higher grades with the following contributing significantly to the coaching, management and leadership of these teams: Premier Reserves: Tom Talbot (captain), Sam Fastier (vice-captain) and Roy Goodyear (coach/manager) Thirds: Elliot Jaffe (captain), Rowan Smith (vice-captain) and Sean Milne (manager) In addition, the Club fielded a Men’s 4th XI which did very well in both competitions that it played in (2-day and 1-day), coming second in both. The Club’s President’s Grade team continued to compete strongly in this very successful and popular competition, flying the Club’s flag and good name with pride while producing a strong comradery over recent years. I would like to thank Peter Hickman (Club Captain) for his untiring efforts in welcoming newcomers to the Club, keeping tabs on the availability of players, aiding in the team selections process each week and managing the Club communication network via Facebook across the season. In addition I would also like to thank the small group of the Men’s Premier team supporters for their very loyal following of the team across the season: Bryan Haggitt, Craig Speakman and Marc O’Gorman come to mind along with many of the respective parents and supporters of the players. 3. Women’s Cricket: The Club fielded its first Women’s Premier and Premier Reserve teams to compete in the respective ACA competitions since 2010, a tribute to the determination and focus of PCC director Dominic Drumm ably supported by Jonathan McInroy (coach), Stephanie Carr (captain/player coach), Geoff Mills (Premier XI manager) and Tom Bassett (Premier Reserves manager) The Premier team secured its first win towards the end of the season while the premier reserve team finished 3rd from 8 teams in both its 1-day and 2-day competitions, a highly creditable performance. PCC’s U-15 team won its ACA competition – clearly, we have some very good talent coming through. PCC remains very committed towards the development and growth of girl’s / women’s cricket and we are well placed to take advantage of the new strategic direction of NZ Cricket in also focussing strongly on female participation and high performance in the sport. The following female players won representative honours across the season: Auckland Under 15’s Kate Irwin and Emma Irwin Auckland Under 18’s Jess Barker 4. Senior Representation The following men’s senior players won representative honours over the season: Lockie Ferguson NZ BLACKCAPS and Auckland Aces Mark Chapman NZ BLACKCAPS, Auckland Aces Ben Horne Auckland Aces, Auckland A (Capt) Josh Fisher Auckland A Andy Lane Auckland A Brad Rodden Auckland A Harry Miller Auckland U19, Auckland A 5. PCC Board of Directors The 2017/18 year saw a continuation of the same Board that was in place over 2016/17 with one exception, Simon Wood replacing Venu Bhamidipaty as Senior Chairman at last year’s AGM. In addition, Rod Smith has remained as PCC President over 2017/18 and has attended Board meetings upon the invitation of the Chairman, as has Bryan Haggitt (Life Member).

We are delighted to have Phil on board following what was a keenly contested recruitment process with a good number of high quality candidates. Phil has a very strong background in cricket having played first class cricket for Auckland from 1980 to 1990 while representing NZ at test match level from 1987 to 1990. He is an experienced cricket coach and proven administrator having worked loyally and very effectively for Brittain Wynyard and Co Ltd, the sole distributor in NZ of such high profile sporting brands as Gunn and Moore, Dukes and Wilson, since 1990. Prior to that Phil worked for the Auckland Cricket Association in the role ACA Development and Schools Coach delivering the Milo Schools Program to many Auckland schools and assisting with development coaching. In addition Phil has also represented NZ at badminton from 1980 to 1990 attending 3 Commonwealth Games in 1982, 1986 and 1990. As Chairman of PCC I have every confidence in Phil successfully performing this key role for the club.

  • Weekly Update – 24 October 2009
    Parnell Cricket Club Incorporated - Established 1858 Update No.183: A Super Weekend! A SUPER WEEKEND in more ways than one: SATURDAY • Our Men’s Prems recovered from 105/6 to head Takapuna’s 236 for 1st innings points and consolidated their position at the top of the Hedley Howarth Trophy Table • Giacomo Lamplough hit 189 for our Men’s Premier Reserves vs North Shore, His innings included 12 sixes and 20 fours. With Keegan Russell (58*) putting on 134, a new Club All Time Lower Grade Record, for the 8th wicket! • Our Premier Women, vs Table Leader Takapuna, scored 216/4 in their 50 overs (Yaz Kareem 83), had North Shore 198/9 only to lose by 1 wicket • Ford Trophy Final at Eden Park: Auckland Aces beat Otago Volts by 2 wickets. Colin Munro hit a 100 but it was our Mark Chapman who, in scoring 84*, nursed the middle and lower order home. More Parnell support from Lockie Ferguson 2/50 (and, sadly, causing Hamish Rutherford to retire hurt) and Ben Horne (catch and stumping, no byes) and 42. SUNDAY • SUPER OVER needed to decide the Jeff Crowe Cup Semi Final: Parnell vs Takapuna and, unlike the Black Caps in all their efforts, Parnell came out the victor. Very much due to the heroic efforts with bat and ball from Ollie Pringle! And not forgetting our ‘keeper, Harry Miller who took 6 catches in Takapuna’s first 20 overs. WONDERFUL TWO DAYS’ CRICKET, FULLER DETAILS OVERLEAF WONDERFUL, TOO, THAT SO MANY PLAYERS AND SUPPORTERS FROM THE PAST CAME TO SHORE ROAD TO SEE SOME QUITE STARTING AND NERVE TINGLING CRICKET.
