junior section of the club stabilised themselves in the Eastern Cricket Association (ECA), the veterans in the Box Hill District Reporter Cricket Association (BHDRCA) and the women‘s team in the VWCA – North West One day grade It is with great pleasure that the current Executive present the Annual Report. I would like to formally thank the entire Executive team for the dedication, effort and persistence in effectively continuing to run, shape & lay the future foundations for the Edinburgh CC. I would also like to thank you as a supporter, parent, player and sponsor of this great club, for all your work, passion and energy through 2013-14. It takes an effort from everybody to make the vibrant, progressive, successful club & enjoyable environment we have. All community organisations cannot operate without the support of valued partners. I would formally like to thank the Royal Derby Hotel, Lion Nathan, Fitzroy Victoria Bowling Club, Secret Agent buyer‘s advocates, Clifton Hill/North Fitzroy Community Bendigo Bank, Fox Hotel, House of Golf (Flinders Street), Back in Motion Physiotherapy - Northcote and Blonde Robot for their on-going financial support. The City of Yarra through Jonathan Coyne, Stuart Grant, Kimberly Castiello and Parks Victoria through Tristan Factor again provide us with our fantastic facilities, grounds & support where needed. Financially we continue to operate efficiently & profitably to ensure we are able to meet any financial challenges that occur day to day & into the future. We need to continue to build on our efficiency, income streams & in particular our agreements with merchandise & equipment providers. We continue to be a leader & voice in our local community. Stan White again facilitated the Atherton Gardens cricket program with the aid of Victoria Police and the City of Yarra, which resulted in some 30 children from the Atherton Garden complex being given the opportunity to experience cricket. Pleasingly 4-5 youngsters progressed into our U/10 and U/12
