TRAINING -
WE'RE NOW OUT ON
THE TRACK
Moonee Valley Cricket Club has been back at Ormond Park from Tuesday, September 12, as we plan for a big 2017/18 season. The seniors have already done a solid indoor pre-season block, while the juniors are also on the park from the week of September 10.
We've confirmed key appointments in Lou Raffaele as coach, Raj Aiyappan as First Eleven captain and the reappointment of Michael Ozbun as Second Eleven skipper.
Two Grand Final captains from last season - Ed Rayner in the Thirds and Shane McDonald in the Fourths have been reappointed in recognition of the way they led their teams into the finals. And we're set to confirm and announce captains of our other grades in the next couple of weeks.
At right: Our UK recruits - Sean Duckworth (left) and James Wolfenden played with the Newcastle University team.
We have welcomed the return of Club Champion Chanaka Silva from Sri Lanka for his third season at Moonee Valley, and have two young English guns - James Wolfenden and Sean Duckworth due to arrive later in September for their "year in the Colonies".
James and Sean have been in regular contact with Moonee Valley VP Simon Thornton, and are much reassured by his description of his conversion from a Yorkshireman to a Fair Dinkum Aussie over the past eight years.
We still have spots available in our six senior teams - and quite likely a seventh team this season as well. Anyone interested in joining our successful and progressive club can phone coach Lou Raffaele on 0450 181 948, Mark Gauci on 0457 778 335 or Club President Charlie Walker on 0411 705 381.
Interested juniors can phone Junior Co-ordinator Peter Pickering on 0414 800 145 or email him at pjp@vicbar.com.au
