Senior teams Week 19 - February 23 & 24

2018/19 Week 19 - February 23/24


It's a big weekend for cricket at Moonee Valley.
The Firsts are at home v Sydenham Hillside in the first day of a two-day game. We're playing for ladder position, after two good wins over the last two rounds.
The Seconds are in the finals and sharpening up with an away game v Sydenham Hillside.
The Thirds are at home Sunday, finishing off the season with two home games.
The Fourths put on their skates for a trip to Highett on Saturday to play Carnegie, with a spot in the finals still live if we hold on to our fourth spot on the ladder.
The Fifths are at home Saturday v Craigieburn, in the first week of finals. And the Sixths are away at Allard Park in East Brunswick, also fighting to continue into the finals.
And don't forget the poker night on Saturday at the bowls club - one of our major fundraisers for the season.
