Thank you – 2014/2015 Season

Published by:

Dear Cricketers,

Firstly, I would like to say a huge thank you to all our NCC members for taking part in the 2014/2015 season.

While in terms of trophies it wasn’t our most successful year, many of our members have smashed their own season records and can be found among the NSCA’s best. We also can’t forget some of the star performances throughout the year with diving catches, amazing 50s/100s, hat tricks and 5fers.

So what happens next?

Presentation Night

Details are slowly being finalized but the date: Saturday, 2nd May has been set for our Annual Presentation night. Located in North Sydney (details to be confirmed), it will be a new venue for Northbridge Cricket Club that has potential for a future long-term partnership.

Our presentation night is always a very special event on the NCC Calendar. Over the years, we have had many famous cricketing stars to attend the evening such as Brendon Julian, Nathan Bracken, Shane Watson, Brett Lee and the late Phillip Hughes (to name a few).

Winter Cricket

In the past few seasons, Northbridge CC have been consecutive premiers of the SMCA competition. Played slightly different from the summer season, games are played fortnightly (1 day game) with an early start of 10.30AM until around 3.30PM. All games are played on artificial wickets and with 10 players per team.

If you are a cricket tragic, would like to keep your form going or enjoy your winter cricket then register your interest by clicking here. Season starts late April/early May.

Annual General Meeting

Before the 2015/2016 season begins (a while away yet), we will have our AGM meeting which gives every member a say in how your club is operated. Every year we need the support of our fellow club members to run this club from electing office bearers to helping us run social media via our committee.

Every member has a voice in the NCC and we welcome your opinions, ideas and thoughts. AGM Date: Mid-August.

Bunnings BBQ

Every year we are very fortunate to be selected to host a Bunning Sausage Sizzle. These additional funds allow Northbridge to do things that other NSCA clubs just don’t do. SCG Training, NCC vs. NCC club games etc.

Dates are being confirmed but if you can help cook and serve a snag, your support as a NCC member would be great.

That’s everything for now.

If you have any further questions then don’t hesitate to contact me,

Kind regards,
Chris Olver & fellow NCC Executive.
Northbridge Cricket Club.

Thoughts go out to friends and family of Phillip Hughes

Published by:

Dear Northbridge Cricketers,

It is a very sad time in cricket at the moment with the news this afternoon that Phillip Hughes passed away, tragically taken far too young. For those in the club back in 2011-12, we had Phillip as our guest speaker at the presso night, and he was one the nicest, most down to earth people you could meet, in particular a famous cricketer.

Mitch Whyman with Phillip Hughes Out of respect for Phillip, could each captain please ensure that all team members have black armbands on this weekend, and have a minutes silence before the commencement of the days play. Take the team out in full uniform prior to commencement and have the minutes silence on the field. If the other teams want to join in, then that would be great. A roll of black electrical tape can be used for the black armbands. And most of all, play this weekend in a spirit deserving of paying respects to a great cricketer tragically lost.

RIP Phillip Hughes. Gone far too soon.

Regards,
Mitch Nicholls
a/ Honorary President
Northbridge Cricket Club

D Reserve skipper hits his maiden ton!

Published by:

D Reserve skipper, Steve Morrison, has hit his first century over the weekend as the side compiled 9/361 at Gore Creek.

Steve managed to hit 111, of which he hit 13 fours and 6 sixes, so not much running required.

The boys also have the opposition 3/25 at the completion of the days play, and will look to secure their first win next Saturday when the match continues.

A Grade go down in a tough match at Koola Park

Please try entering https://graph.facebook.com/754648294607704/photos?fields=source,link,name,images,album&limit=200 into your URL bar and seeing if the page loads.The A Grade side, making their return to turf cricket, went down agonisingly in a tough match against North Ryde RSL at Koola Park. The ‘Bridge suffered from early season nerves on the first day, being bowled out for 128 on a tricky Koola wicket. The word from the troops is that spin played a big part in it, with the skipper mentioning it was the best spin bowling he has faced in a long time.

Day 2 was a better day for the ‘Bridge, but ultimately we fell at the final hurdle, with 1 run needed to force the opposition to bat again and only 5 overs left in the day. To make matters worse, we had 2 batsman missing (with one who didn’t turn up at all!). But we fought hard despite this, and will gather momentum for the next round.
