The Future of this club as it grows requires passionate volunteers and professionals to take this club from being a good strong club into a great club. So as you consider what type of club you would like to continue to be a part of, I ask that you also consider how you can contribute to the growth of the club! If not, you than who will do it? We continue to be a successful club due to a number of factors; - Great Players that play with great Spirit - Players & Coaches that Represent our club at BCDCA level - Accredited Coaches that coach our kids for skill and attitude - Passionate Volunteers that score, Manage and help were required - Charity causes that bring us all together to help others - Committee Members that contribute to our systems and processes - Sponsors that believe in our vision We would like to know how you can contribute to the above as we grow and if you’re not sure please feel free to contact us! I am personally very proud of this Club, Parents, Coaches and Sponsors, our Contribution to the cricket community and McGrath Foundation.

Rod Yendle President KRCC !3 Secretary Report Three junior titles and three senior titles give a clear indication of another successful year for KRCC. KRCC has also received club of the year for 2015-16 season. This year we have 11 junior teams and 5 senior teams in the competition. We have junior team in every division of the competition. Two junior teams remain undefeated in 205-16 season. Whilst all committee members, coaches and volunteers work together as a unit, they are also working in their own area of expertise to ensure the future of our club. This year 35 junior players, increased from 30 last year from KRCC have selected in the BC&DCA Junior representative squad for year 2014-15. Three KRCC players have selected in the NSW Emerging Blues squad and two KRCC players have selected in NSW PSSA state side for national competition. Congratulations to all kids who made to Representative District Cricket, NSW PSSA state side and Emerging Blues squad. We have 9 junior teams in the finals this year which is indeed a great achievement for a young club. Congratulations to junior kids for their achievement this year and successful season. Many thanks to junior coaches, junior coordinator Mark Wallington and Club coach Jason Blanchard for job well done. Mr Ryan Hutton is our Senior Team Co-ordinator and he has done exceptional job to manage five senior teams this year. I would like to congratulate the premiers and senior teams who made it to the final. Club has also conducted the various activities this year with the help of committee members, volunteers, patents and sponsors such as Mcgrath foundation. This year Sponsors have shown their trust in KRCC activities and backed KRCC with their continual sponsorship. Huge thanks to all sponsors without their exceptional support in the club, these activities will not be achieved at all. I take this opportunity to thank Mr Rod Yendle, Mr Jason Blanchard, Mr Daniel Miller, Ryan Hutton and Mark Wallington for their persistent efforts towards all club activities from planning, organizing and implementing perspective. Also I would like to thank Ms Annupa Ahi and Trecy Curruthers for helping the club in the various activities. Look forward to see club to continually set new standards every year and continue to be active in its activities and organized events. I hope you have a wonderful off season. Look forward to see you next year!!! # !4 Treasurers Report Season 2015/2016 has been another good one for our club .We managed to win six titles for the season. There was also 4 other sides who made the Final but were unsuccessful. We just missed out on winning the Senior Club Championship but managed to win the Junior Club Championship for the 4 th time in 9 years. Our numbers held steady this year, as we again fielded 16 teams. In juniors we fielded teams in every competition as well as 2 in some divisions. This is the first year where we have not gained extra teams however that is a blessing as I’m not sure where we would be able find extra grounds for them. It is also not ideal to have two Kellyville Ridge teams in one competition as it means there is one side who cannot win a competition. This year we were able to support the McGrath Foundation’s Pink Stumps Day. It is great to see the great community spirit that this worthy cause brings out in our club. I would like to thank all of our great sponsors who without their support would make this job a lot tougher and would increase our fees by a great deal. Due to not having the costs for the presentation detailed financial figures cannot be provided to go into this yearbook. The financial report will be tabled at the AGM for those who wish to view it. Thanks to everyone for making this season great. Thanks also for making Belleville Ridge one of the biggest but far and away the best club in our district. Daniel Miller Treasurer Kellyville Ridge Cricket Club. !5 Milo In2cricket And Mini Big Bash Another great year for our Milo kids. With over 80 participants across the in2Cricket and Mini Big Bash programs, Thursday nights at Conor Greasby Reserve were bussing with activity. Our biggest group this year was our 4-6 year olds, many of whom participated for the first time. Feedback from parents was great, and the kids thoroughly enjoyed the term. The program represents a great platform for our club, as many of these kids go on to play in our junior sides. These programs would not be possible without the support of some of our seniors, who take time out to assist with coaching. Big thanks must go to assistant coordinator John Borg as well as Warren Bullivant and Anish Luthra who assisted throughout the term. Additionally, to the volunteers who assisted in the canteen each Thursday, thank you again for your support. We look forward to another successful year in 2016. !6 Juniors !7 U10’s Division 2 Our U10s Division 2 team. We had at least six close loses (including 1 run loss game in last bowl and 1 wicket loss in a game) which could have changed our position but I am proud of the team and how far they have come specially finishing on high thrashing the grand final winner with easy win in the last round game. All the team players have improved in all the area and no. of wins have been team effort. Some of the highlight includes Max and Gurnoor scoring runs in the early part of the comp with Dhaval, Mansukh and Mehrab supporting them with getting runs in the second half of the comp. Gurnoor retiring at 23 three times in a row. Team has improved in bowling drastically from bowling 60+ extras in some of the first few games with getting the teams all out under 50 towards the end. Some of the bowling highlight include Mansukh getting 3/5 in his 4 overs against Blacktown city, with Arin and Vidun conceding only 1 run in their 4 overs. Vidun finished with 11 wickets and got support from all in bowling with Gurnoor and Arin bowling tight spells. Babek with his harbhajan singh style spin bowling got few wickets by confusing few batsman and Tom was disciplined bowling stump to stump straight bowling. The Team improved on their fielding as competition progressed with Vidun and Dhaval getting max run outs and catches with support from Max, Gurnoor, Mehrab, Kyle, Mikalya with their wicket keeping. It was surprising to see superb keeping in odd matches from Mehrab, and Kyle with very little training. Neil improved his bowling action along the way and was good at striking few good shots when he got opportunity. I enjoyed coaching the team thoroughly and am sure they would progress to achieve new highs in the next season. !8 U10 Division 1 The side was made up of the kids who stayed back from the two under 10’s side from last year plus a couple of new faces. This meant that there was two coaches, Gavin and me. At the beginning of the season we had some mixed results with two heavy loses against Plumpton due to our bowling not firing on the other hand our batting was awesome (like it has been all season).
