Past and present players get together
The regular function for past and current players was held in the Ormond Park pavilion on November 30, and tall tales and true were spread around the function room. The guest list was headed by Moonee Valley's official Legend, Ray Storey and his wife Heather, who were down from their home on the Murray for the event. Above: Back in familiar territory: Club founder and official Moonee Valley Legend Ray Storey and wife Heather. Persistent rain washed out the day's play so the gathering didn't get the opportunity to watch our Firsts and Fifths in action, but that didn't dampen the enthusiasm. The evening was organised by our Moonee Valley Cricket Club Past & Present Players & Supporters group - you can find more details on the club Facebook page or here. Thanks to Dean Lawson for the lamb cooked on the Club's new charcoal spit - cooked to perfection. ***For more pictures from the function, click HERE

David does it -
first ton for the
Valleys
Young gun David Lubansky has scored his first century for Moonee Valley, helping his Under 16 team to a strong win. Playing in our combined team with Kensington, David his his unbeaten 100 off just 108 balls. He was well supported by fellow Valley young gun Jeremy Sevenson, who made a brisk 45 off 37 balls. Both David and Jeremy are also regulars in our Fourths, which play C Grade turf in Mercantile on Sundays. At left: David Lubansky raises the bat after his maiden century for Moonee Valley. It's amazing to think how far David has come since he played his first senior game while still in our Under 12s. Even on debut in November 2021 - David took a very tidy 2/26 off six overs against Reservoir Mayston, and making a confident 2 with the bat before being caught. Here's to many more centuries and many more runs.
