JOIN OUR MOONEE VALLEY JUNIORS
Moonee Valley has a new structure in place for juniors this season, and it's already starting to pay dividends.
Our new structure sees committed parents Peter Pickering and Leigh Holder (far right) sharing the duties of Junior Co-ordinator and representing the junior section on the Club committee, while Channa DeSilva (right) is Director of Junior Cricket with responsibility for overseeing coaching and development.
Channa, a Premiership player in our Second Eleven last season, will also be advocating for our junior section on the Club committee.
Committee members Allan Cumming, Peter Golding, Charlie Walker and Kevin Gardiner are all parents of players who came through our junior section, while Matt Thomas and Jesse Nankivell-Sandor are former juniors who now have a committee role in running our Club.
We have entered three Under 12 teams, an Under 14 team and two Under 10 teams, but there's still scope for more players to sign up.
Peter pointed out that all our junior teams are fixtured to play Friday evenings this season, because this is what parents and families wanted.
While the Under 10s play their home games on mown turf strips at Ormond Park, our Under 14s and one Under 12 team will alternate with home games on the Ormond Park synthetic. The other two teams will be able to play their home games at our other long-term ground, Debney Park.
Leigh pointed out that we still need assistance with coaching and team-managing roles with a couple of the teams, and is confident that parents will help step into the roles.
Any families or parents wanting more information about Moonee Valley's junior program, or wanting to join, can phone Leigh Holder on 0423 226 532, Channa DeSilva on 0402 833 592, Club President Charlie Walker on 0409 237 543 or email us on mooneev@club.cricketvictoria.com.au
