Clarke Oval – VTCA matches to commence this Saturday.

The long anticipated wait to play our first match on the new turf wicket at Clarke Oval is all but over. From all reports the preparations are on schedule with the grass being mowed and rolling commenced.

This coming Saturday we are fixtured to play Grand United in a 40 over VTCA Div 3, one day match at Clarke Oval, first ball to be bowled at 1 pm.

It has been a long few years in the making with a lot of hard work being done during this time including the decision to join VTCA, having to play at Coolaroo for two seasons longer than first planned, the many meetings and discussions with council and other Clarke Oval stakeholders, purchase of equipment, the list goes on.

Join me in thanking all those who made this possible.

We welcome all past players and those interested in coming down next Saturday to join us on this momentous day.

FYI: we have scheduled a past players premiership reunion day early next year, stay tuned for details.

Yours in cricket,

Marty Kelders.
