We're set to defend our Twenty20 crown Moonee Valley is set to defend its North West Cricket Association Twenty20 crown next Tuesday, November 9 - and we're hoping for a three-peat of Premierships. The Valleys have won the last two Twenty20 flags, and are playing this Sunday in the regional playoffs (see item below) thanks to the 2009/10 premiership. So we're primed to go. Our Moonee Valley A team is playing Greenvale at Bradford St Reserve in Greenvale in the first round, while our Moonee Valley B team is home against Taylors Lakes. The competition is divided into two groups. Each team plays five games, and the winners of each group play off in the grand final for prize money. We will be selecting our teams on Sunday. Players who are interested should ring Chairman of Selectors Amit Chaudhary (left) asap on 0425 200 047. Two teams of guys gather for Sandro & Kimmie's hitching Past president, Life Member and five-time Moonee Valley Premiership Player Sandro Capocchi married his long-time partner Kim Richardson on Friday, September 24, and two dozen Valley team-mates were there to celebrate with him. Pictured here with Sandro are two teams of players - 22 guys - while women's team players Tien Ha and Victoria Thorneycroft went missing when the photo was taken. The players are: L-R: Back - Minh Ha, Bob Sciacchitano, Dino Sapuppo, Lou Raffaele, Charlie Walker, Ryan Fairclough, Jim Polonidis, Kevin Gardiner, Darren Nagle, Sandro Capocchi, John Talone, Jim McKenzie, Mark Gauci, Joe Ansaldo, Geoff Smith, Peter Fenaughty and Sean O'Kane. Front - Geoff McKeown, Michael Cumbo, Phill King, Dean Jukic and Daniel Phillips. Sandro briefly forgot where he was - with two teams of players around him, he led the charge into the chapel because he thought it was time for afternoon tea in the pavilion. Alas, he had to wait a few minutes longer for the food and drink. The cricketing guests for the wedding, at the Inglewood winery in Kangaroo Ground, included eight Life Members, long-time players, fellow committee members and more recent additions to the Moonee Valley family. It was also obvious that Sandro's a bowler - his guests included four wicketkeepers. Past president Darren Nagle and past secretary John Talone were in the bridal party, which included Tien Ha, and also Sandro's daughter Georgia. **Watch the website for more photos and details.
