What makes a club
Tough question I know, it is not merely having a group of players
and having a facility for them to enjoy. There are many moving
parts to a club, be it a cricket club or any type of club. The
structures and processes of most clubs are the same, they exist in
an environment where there is a need for what the club supplies.
But how does a club thrive, most people go to on field results and
examine them and make the assessment good club / bad club. This is
very simplistic, judging purely on "on field" results. Ideally a
club is a place where the playing group enjoy being, they enjoy the
company of their fellow players (mates). The club should provide a
safe and secure environment free from harasment or discrimination,
where anyone is welcome. The club is also made up of many moving
and functional parts. It is a place where non Board members feel
comfortable coming up and saying "need a hand", such as Rod and
Helen did on Saturday night, which was much appreciated and
welcome. You could think of many more things that make for a good
club, but I am comfortable saying "I am very happy with the way the
players (senior & junior) and the supporters and club officials are
currently supporting the club". My thanks to all for this. Can we
do better - always.

16/1/12 President's Update
Cricket
Well, what a great week it's been in cricket. The A Grade T/20 team
ventured onto the hallowed turf of Adelaide Oval and produced a
clinical display across the board to hand out a thumping to
Kensington. My thanks for all the players, supporters and others
than attended, we were certainly had the greatest support,
continuing on our T/20 revival. My congratulations to the players,
they certainly celebrated in style in the Pura Milk Corporate Box
and back at the club on Saturday night. Well deserved and good
reward.
Footballers continue on their merry way with another comprehensive
win, the highlights being Dave Paul's 5/10 and Sleepys 150 odd. The
A's and D's produced good team performances to battle to wins on the
weekend, the B Grade getting smashed and the C Grade getting thrown
out by Paul Finnie, with some good batting by Tom Rehn and Cain
Ryan, both of who continue to chalk up runs - need a ton boys
please.
Congrats to Trav Head who has peeled off 100's against NSW and Vic
in the U19 carnival being played in Adelaide. His other innings was
a failure - 49. We also have Caleb Graeber playing in the carnival
and he has acquitted himself well so far.
Another A Grade debutant on the weekend - Jack Holliday - well done
Jack.
Events
This week, 21st January 2012 (see also below), a cricketing legend
returns to the club, having played for TTG in the 90/91 season at
age 45 with limited success. The taker of 242 Test Wickets and
scoring considerably less runs, B.S. CHANDRASEKHAR will be at the
club from 6.30 to 8.30 for fellowship. Rob Zadow will deliver an
oration at 7 pm and from 7.30 the great man will be interviewed by
Fox Sports (and TTG's) very own Tom Rehn. Chandra has been
committed to eradicating India of Polio, and has worked closely as a
ambassador for world health organisations, promoting the cause
throughout the world. The 13th January 2012 marked 1 year since the
last case of Polio being reported in India - a magnificent
achievement.
A BBQ will be available from 6 pm. This is an open invitation to
all.
Afternoon Teas
I am hearing that some people don't think they have to pay the $5
for afternoon tea, that rates with the best in the competition, we
think it is the best. I will be speaking to the coach and cricket
director this week, anyone that has outstanding money for afternoon
teas, will be unavailable for selection. This will be a direction
from the Board. This is totally unacceptable and will not be
tolerated.
I also had a query about why the A Grade seem to get more than
everyone else. Well the simple answer is that we have 2 or 3
parents / grandmothers, that take the time and effort to make scone,
cakes, sausage rolls to supplement the A Grade afternoon team at
their own cost. So Todd Neve, put your apron on Friday night and
you too can have what the A Grade get. Either that or speak to the
coach and get those players dropped to your team so you too can get
the extras. My thanks to those Heather, Emily and Hazel for the
afternoon teas and also the ladies that bring the extras.

14/1/12 Chandra's VisitIndian cricket legend B.S. CHANDRASEKHAR Saturday 21st January 2012 - 6.30 to 8.30 pm Tea Tree Gully District Cricket Club Steventon Drive, Banksia Park AN OPEN INVITATION TO ALL The Tea Tree Gully District Cricket Club is delighted to announce the return to the club of Indian Cricket Legend and former Indian Test cricketer B.S. CHANDRASEKHAR. Chandra played 1 season of Grade Cricket for TTG in the 1990/91 under the captaincy of Rob Zadow. Despite a distinguished Test career, Chandra sees his greatest achievement as having played a major role in India’s 12 month milestone celebrations of not having 1 single case of Polio reported. Chandra is a polio survivor and despite a withered right arm, he managed to take 252 Test wickets (and not quite as many runs). His career highlights included · 6/38 against England at the Oval in 1971 · 12/104 match figures which was instrumental in India’s first test victory in Australia in Melbourne in 1978. · 1972 Wisden Cricketer of the Year · Wisden’s “best bowling performance of the century award” in 2002 Agenda 6.00 pm – BBQ / Bar facilities available at the club 6.30 pm – Chandra arrives / fellowship with guests. 7.00 pm - Official welcome and oration by Rob Zadow on Chandra’s time spent at the club. 7.15 pm - Fellowship with guests 7.30 pm - Fox Sports Tom Rehn’s interview with Chandra 8.00 pm - More fellowship with guests, then eventually “one for the road”. 21/12/11 President' Christmas ReportChristmas Greetings
In the last report of the year, let me
once again wish everyone a safe, happy and enjoyable Christmas and New
Year. The club officially closed at about 12.30 am on Sunday morning
when the last of the partygoers departed by bus for the Cricket Top billing must go to the footballers, sitting undefeated well in front of the pack and not looking like dropping a game at this time. John Lucas’s 6 for 8 certainly a highlight of the recently completed round. The A Grade had a disappointing journey to Price Memorial and sampled a taste of what they must do to get amongst the competition benchmarks. Rain again destroyed the B and D Grade games, both not getting a start. I have lost count of the amount of times the D Grade have not played this year, 5 or 6 Saturdays from memory. The C Grade set themselves up nicely to win another game, needing just 30 off 12 overs with plenty of wickets in the shed and Tommy Rehn batting like Sachin a win seemed a formality, only for the rain to intervene. The bare wicket that has hosted numerous games of cricket this year is no longer. Now fully grassed with our preferred choice “South African Couch”, we continue to look forward to the day when there is no more plugging, turfing or other initiatives to get our square fully grassed. Thanks to Bill and Colin for their dedication and commitment to this task we are viewing next year as the breakthrough year for a fully grassed Perti. To that end we must thank the players, they have been fully informed of how, when, where and why and have accepted the process adopted this year and thankfully the wickets produced, whilst batter friendly (well mostly), have produced consistent pace and bounce. Club Person of the Week - everyone The club will re open for business in the first week in January 2012. I would like to thank you all for your commitment to the club. Each week our 60+ volunteers give up significant time to make our club a success. It is impossible to get around and thank everyone, but your work is not taken for granted, it is appreciated and essential for our club to continue to move forward. So please accept my thanks for your work and I look forward to it continuing in the new year. With the juniors now enjoying a significant break (ridiculous in my opinion), we wish the BankSA U16 team all the best for their competition early in the new year, the U14 team later in January and the seniors resume battle in the first weekend in January. If you are not sure of your training commitments, contact Ben, Simon or your captain to make sure. A reminder that the A Grade will play their T/20 final against Kensington on 10th January 2012 with a 2.30 start. I want to see a huge contingent of TTG supporters at Adelaide Oval cheering the boys on. It is not often enough that we see the Bulls colours on the hallowed turf of Adelaide Oval. I am currently (or Bruce is anyway) negotiating for a significant amount of tickets to enable those supporters that don’t have Grade cricket entry passes to attend and support the boys. Reminder Cricket Coaching – Tim Davey – 0421621629

Best Wishes
As the festive season fast approaches, yes that's right it has been
12 months, I would like to take the opportunity to wish all players,
members, supporters, volunteers and everyone else a Safe and Happy
Christmas and a similar New Year. It is a time of celebration and
remembrance bringing mixed emotions to different people. Take the
time to remember those loved ones that are no longer with us and
celebrate as they would want you to. It is indeed a special time of
the year to spend with family and close friends.
SATURDAY 17th December - post match - Christmas celebrations at the
club - drink specials after Presentations - music, fellowship -
meals as normal + Christmas menu.
My Thanks
On behalf of the Board, I would like to take the opportunity to
congratulate and thank everyone who contributes their time to make
this club a better place. There are too many people to mention in a
forum such as this, but I certainly hope that you have been thanked
and that your involvement with our club is a positive one.
Following on from my offer for people to contact me re suggestions,
etc, I have received several phone calls about various things.
Whilst the calls have not resulted in change, the people who took
the time are now aware of some of the issues we face when trying to
improve things. So my thanks to those people for taking the time
and caring.
Cricket News
Despite more Friday rain, no play lost at Perti and only minimal
time at Bulkana. Once again our Curators putting in overtime to get
us playing - thanks again. Unlike our B's and D's who again had to
sit out a Saturday and play a 1 dayer on the Sunday. Go to "Story
of the Week" for the Campbelltown saga.
The Flagship (A Grade) had a nerve tingling game, just finishing on
the right side with a 3 run win. Defending 99 on a quickly
improving pitch an outstanding effort, with Jace O'Hara, Tim Evans
and Mat Weaver sharing the poles, unfortunately Jace hurting his
back when taking the crucial last wicket. The catching and fielding
was the best I have seen this year, certainly a benchmark now we
know the level that can be achieved. In the quest for outright
points Deisel (Davey) made another ton with good support from Toot (Stolcman),
Tevez (T. Evans) and Weavs. We then saw Brad Evans rip the heart
out of the East Torrens batting, taking 6 poles, unfortunately at
the close, 2 wickets short of what would have been a well deserved
outright.
The B Grade marched on, now sitting 5 and 1, excellent performances
from the bowlers who shared the poles and Sommers best of the
batters with a undefeated half century. The C Grade smashed ET on
Bulkana. The Cheese (Coach), Steve Canala and Crazy (Primer) the
big performers on the day. The D Grade battled gamely, however
easily went down.
Wednesday 14/12 - 5.20 pm start - A Grade T/20 v SACA U19's - be
there, bring your friends, BBQ, drink specials, music, DJ Tom Rehn,
Music Man Cain Ryan, guaranteed entertainment.
This week the seniors and juniors take on competition benchmark
"Sturt". A big test, but one I am sure all players are up to. Good
luck to all, play hard, play fair, then back to the club for
Christmas cheer.
Club Persons of the Week - Heather Coull
Sorry can't go past "Heather Coull". A tireless and fastidious
worker in the kitchen and bar area of the club, plus social and
fundraising director, with assistance from Emily and Hazel (+
others), ensures we present the best rolls, best afternoon tea and
best bar service at the club. Without saying how good we do it,
when you compare what we present for the players with what some of
the other clubs do, like comparing chalk and cheese. My heartfelt
thanks - the club is a much better place with your work and
presence.
Story of the Week - a Disney fairytale
The D Grade got called off on Friday and ET placed Campbelltown as
doubtful. Well on Sat morning the B Grade rocked up to Campbelltown
ready for another Hosking led sensational performance. A pitch
inspection revealed a wet patch down 1 end of the wicket. Covers
leaking perhaps. No apparently someone had got a bag of ice,
removed the covers, put the bag of ice on the wicket and then put
the covers back on. Then the ET groundsman decided to blame a
former TTG curator, who incidently is in Vietnam. He was promptly
told to pull his head in. Now I don't know about you, but how could
they possibly expect anyone to believe this story. Firstly
Campbelltown is encircled by a 5 foot fence, do you carry around a
bag of ice in your back pocket, pick the covers up and then replace
them - yeah right. Conveniently no damage caused, just a big wet
spot. Fortunately the B Grade won on the Sunday.
Reminders
Having a drink over the break, save your bottles and cans, bring
them up to the club when we resume and put them in the blue bins out
the front of the club. All proceeds go to TTG cricket.
Like a drop of Shiraz, the club is selling a very nice Shiraz, which
has passed the John Herrmann and Mark Nottle taste test for $90 a
dozen, $7.50 a bottle to take away or $12 a bottle to drink with
your lovely Blue Gums Steak or Turkey on Saturday night. Ask at the
bar. We have sold about 3 dozen cases so far, I still have 10 boxes
left and their might be more after Christmas, but no guarentees. So
order now. You can drop me an email if you like, but on holidays
after today. If interested - email will be johndave@optusnet.com.au
until 9/1/12.
The club will be closed after the weekend for a couple of weeks.
Training schedules should have been advised to all players by the
coaches. Enjoy the break, best wishes to Mat & Sarah on their
wedding on 30/12. Trav Head turns 18 over the break - best wishes
and anyone else celebrating a milestone while we are in a break -
best wishes.

6/12/11 President's Update
Cricket News
Some good news from the cricket pitches over the weekend, with both
A and B Grade & Footballers putting in absolute dominating
performances and registering good wins. Special mentions this week
to Tim Evans with a outstanding ton and young gun Travie Head with
another half century. In the B's, old man Primer with 3 for and
Christian Marsh on comeback trail with a sound knock. For the
footballers, Bucky, Chris Linhart and Blacky all performed well.
The C and D Grade battled manfully with some promising performances,
Cain Ryan and Joel Chapman the standouts for each team.
Midweek the A Grade defeated Northern Districts in T/20 action on
another sub standard pitch that seems to be norm when we play
limited overs games out that way. An outstanding knock of 71* by
young Trav got us over the line when chasing 106 with a couple of
balls to spare. This leaves the A Grade undefeated in T/20 action,
but behind Adelaide on run rate. The T/20 game on Wednesday 14th
December 2011 - 5.20 pm start will determine whether we visit
Adelaide Oval for the final on 10/1/12. We will be at full strength
for this, so all club players, both seniors and juniors are expected
to attend and support - plus bring friends along, BBQ open, drinks
specials.
Sad News
We announce the passing last week of Paul Harrison - father in law
"to be" of Club Captain Mat Weaver, to Sarah, Mat and extended
family, you have our prayers and thoughts in this difficult times,
Paul's funeral is at Tumby Bay on Wednesday. Paul had been ill for
some time. Our best wishes to all. Mat & Sarah will be wed on
Friday 30/12/11.
Meals - not quite
Whilst sitting and having a chat on Saturday night, it didn't seem
as busy as most Presentation Nights at the club. How wrong I was
proved to be - we set a new world record of 113 meals for the
night. We are creeping up on the 120 benchmark I have set. I think
the night of 17/12/11 will see us hit that mark and smash it to
pieces.
On the meal subject, this Sunday night the Blue Gums will be doing
meals, I understand the juniors (or some of them) are at Southern
Districts, but presentations will be held, so get back to the club
for an hour or so. Save those cooks out there having to whip
something up on Sunday night and remember how bad "The Golden
Arches" is for you.
Told off
You would have heard praise for old man "Colin Paech" during the
presentations on Saturday night. I have had to tell Sean Nottle
off, young Colin is now walking around telling everyone that he is
TTG's answer to Les Burdett and is thinking of writing a book on
pitch preparation and is waiting for the call from India to be flown
over there as a pitch consultant. So please, thank Colin personally
if you must, but no more public acknowledgement please.
My thanks - club person of the week
This week "the club person of the week" goes to A Grade Manager Trev
Evans. As well as being the best Team Manager in the Grade
competition, Trev has since this cricket season started, helped the
club out at several events, often working till late in the night
behind the bar. So Trev I know I have thanked you personally, but
you are due for public acknowledgement - great stuff.
Upcoming Events - pre Christmas
Sunday 11th December - Post match presentations at the club,
meals, awards, fellowship, etc.
Wednesday 14th December - A Grade T/20 v SACA U19's - 5.20 pm
start - BBQ, drink specials, music, all players (senior, junior,
womens) expected to attend, make a night of it, I want T/20
excitement back at Perti, not the rubbish the other clubs are
serving up. T/20 is about excitement, we need to be the benchmark
for that we need you to support it. There will be no cricket
practice for TTG teams on that night. I want at least a thousand
people there, gets your friends / mates there.
Saturday 17th December - Christmas break up, meals,
presentation night for senior and juniors, music, fellowship, drink
specials. You will make the night, all players are expected to be
there, this is what being a club is all about.
"there'll be no play" - Senior term, ask someone.

Deepest Sympathy
Our thoughts and prayers to Peter, Stephanie and Tyler Martin on the
passing of dear wife and mother Kerry. Kerry's funeral is at
Harrisons @ Ridgehaven at 2.30pm on Thursday 1/12/11. Kerry fought
a long and brave battle, our heartfelt sympathies to the family. We
all know that behind any great man is an even greater women. Kerry
was that woman, supporting and encouraging Peter through his long
association with the footy club, of which he is a Life Member and of
recent times the cricket club.
The Club
With the rain causing almost no cricket last weekend, there is
precious little to talk about. The footballers continued on their
winning ways, almost turning a certain win into a inglorious defeat,
then eventually winning by 1 wicket, well done again.
Presentation night this week will again see Meals by the Blue Gums,
total last time 107. We have meals the next three weekends on Sat
3/12, Sunday 11/12 & Sat 17/12, all being presentation nights at the
club. I urge you all to support the Blue Gums meals, they are
excellent value as are the bar prices when compared with other
venues. Let's get to 120 please.
Also this Saturday night, our Club Captain Mat Weaver will be having
his "farewell to single life" show at the club from around 8.30. I
will ask that all those not involved vacate the club by 9 so that
the boys can be left with it. Security will be yours truly and big
Trev.
Upcoming Events - Reminders
3/12/11 - Match presentations at the club.
Wednesday 14/12/11 @ 5.20pm - A Grade T/20 v SACA U19's at
Pertaringa. All invited, bring your friends, family and associates.
Saturday 17/12/11 - Mid season break up - Christmas Show at the
club. Drink specials.
Bottle & Can drive, bring them to the club, put them in the blue
bins out the front.
Wine sale - Fundraiser - Jazz 2005 "The Shiraz", taste at the club,
contact me for purchases - $90 per dozen, excellent drop and value.
John Davey 22/11/11 President's Update
Cricket
What a disappointing weekend it was, both Flagship teams (Mens &
Womens A Grade) putting in disappointing performances on the centre
wicket at Perti on Sat & Sunday respectively and losing their
games. On a positive note the Mens B and C Grade teams had
convincing wins with Scott Todd (B) - 6 wickets and Nathan Johnston
(C) leading the wicket taking for those teams. The D Grade chased a
serious amount of leather, keep your chin up boys. The juniors
brought home 1 out of 4, but again, there is always some shining
lights.
On a positive note, the Mens A Grade travelled to Berri on the
weekend for the annual country game against Glenelg, this year being
a T/20 game. Despite 10ml of rain on Saturday, they were presented
with great conditions, certainly nothing that indicated the carnage
that followed. TTG won the toss and elected to field and Jake
Haberfield (4 wickets), Jace O'Hara (3) & Brad Evans (2) proceeded
to take a wicket in every one of the first 7 overs of the game.
Glenelg eventually sucumbed for 67 in 14 overs. This total was
achieved very easily in 13 overs with the loss of 3 wickets, giving
the boys a well deserved percentage boost after the light issues at
Prospect. A big congratulations to TC (Tim Cronin) and Moss (Adam
Mossop) for making the trip and doing nothing but provide support
and field a ball or two, their voice and support was outstanding.
Once again Berri was the perfect host and we look forward to
continuing to support cricket in the Riverland and Murray Districts.
Well done to Jake for his 10 poles in the Futures League game last
week - surely Shield and Ryobi selection follow.
Young Trav Head - who incidentally has changed his Facebook Status
to "batting allrounder", with 97 batting at 3 in the Future League
game in Tassie, follow his progress on Mycricket - Live Scores.
To our very young senior squad, each week there are things happening
on the field that provides positives for the future. Take the
positives, build the camaraderie, Rome was not built in a day.
Story of the Week
Goes to our cricketing footballers. Playing One Tree Hill on
Banksia Primary, game being umpired by team mates of the batting
side. One of their players was given out caught behind by the
umpire and proceeded to carry on and asked the umpire what he was
given out for, the answer "I don't know" was probably not what he
was looking for, so in stepped Big Pete and gave the bloke another
chance to show his wares. Unfortunately his pads stopped the ball
hitting the wickets next ball and the LBW shout was upheld. This
opposition player is obviously very popular with his team mates and
departed with his tail between his legs. Somehow this translates
into our footballers being cheats, not sure how that works,
apparently not allowed to appeal. We might have to get former Test
Umpire Peter Cronin back into his umpiring togs and bring some "espirit
de corps" back into the umpiring fraternity.
Whats happening at the club
Put these events in your diary for support of the club up until
Christmas.
- Sue Holliday's 50th birthday at the club Friday night, birthday
actually on Thursday (I think), so "Happy Birthday Sue" from all.
- Saturday 26/11/11 - Heather Coull's birthday - all welcome
"Pizzas & Platters" (I am reliably informed), email, text, ring
Heather and confirm your attendance, otherwise just turn up and say
Happy Birthday and buy her a bubbly.
- Saturday 3rd December - end of match presentations at the club.
- Saturday 3rd December from 8.30 pm onwards - Mat Weaver's (A
Grade skipper) Buck show.
- Sunday 11th December - end of match presentations at the club
(Sat / Sun game for all).
- Wednesday 14th December - 5.20pm start - T/20 A Grade v SACA
U19's - all expected - Cronins won't be there - excuse provided,
poor but accepted.
- Saturday 17th December - "Christmas at the Club" - Christmas
cheer, special Christmas menu, music (not too loud too early).
President's Spin
In my time being involved in Sport, I have learnt the absolute worst
thing a parent can do is try and tell anyone that hasn't escaped
your clutches, how you think the world would be a much better place
if all those volunteers and persons charged with the responsibility
of looking after or running the team followed your thoughts on the
world. You will have to trust me when I tell you that we have the
best people in place to look after your teams taking into account
availability and cost. Support and encourage - basic principles of
being a sporting parent.
Everyone makes mistakes, identify it, correct it, have a laugh if
appropriate, (put on facebook if you have video) move on - simple
philosophy.

15/11/11 President's Update
Welcome again for your weekly (hopefully) update on things
happening in your club.
Firstly, if you rely on other people forwarding this email onto
you and you want a direct line from my sub editor - send your
email address to - cricket@chariot.net.au - and request you be
added to the contact list and you will receive the first
edition, hot off the presses. I have had some very positive
feedback about the weekly update, but as the season progresses,
I will rely on the masses out there to feed me some (truthful)
stories of interest to distribute to all.
Congratulations
Trav Head (A Grade) for winning the Gillespie Rising Star award
for his match winning innings against Prospect two weeks ago.
Centurions from the weekend - Deisel Davey (A), Nugget Hunter
(B), Sounda Sleep (Footballers), Jack Holliday (U18's) and
several near misses - Trav Head, Tim Evans, Corey Polyak and Tom
Rehn. A batting bonanza, hopefully to be followed by a bowlers
bonanza this week.
Jake Haberfield back into the SACA 1 day side.
Mat Weaver being called up for the Futures League team - good
luck Weavs.
Remember presentations this Saturday night at the club, 120
meals is our aim, pencil the club in as the place to be from
6.30 to 8.30 this Saturday night. Presentations start from
around 7.15 for the juniors, dependent on Steve's patience and
when everyone is back. I really don't mind if you don't eat,
drink or breathe, I want all players back at the club to support
the club and there should be no reason why you cannot invite a
friend or two to also have a meal and a quiet drink. You create
the atmosphere.
Upcoming Events
Saturday 26th November 2011 - Plates and Platters night at the
club, help celebrate Heather Coull's 21st birthday (again - no I
don't know how many times). RSVP back to Heather for catering
purposes - informal night, all welcome.
Wednesday 14th December 2011 - T/20 action on Pertaringa Oval.
TTG Bulls v SACA U19's - 5.20 pm start. I not only want every
player, supporter, official and their families present at this
game. I also want everyone to publicise this event so that we
can get T/20 excitement back on Pertaringa Oval, big crowd, big
excitement, special guest announcer, music, etc. etc. etc. Free
entry and entertainment guaranteed. This is our only home T/20
game for the year, so no excuses not to be there.
Saturday 17th December 2011 - Christmas at the Club, put it in
your diary now, no excuses excepted, meal, presentations, then
music (dancing perhaps), lots of socialising. A good night
guarenteed.
Coaching
Tim (Deisel) Davey is offering his coaching services to aspiring
juniors. Tim is an accredited coach, has outstanding technical
knowledge, is a student teacher and is a current A Grade player
for TTG and a member of the Emerging Redbacks Squad as a
wicketkeeper / batsman. He finishes this year's study at the
end of this week and will be available, outside of cricket
commitments almost full time to offer coaching services, both
individually and in group sessions. Tim has previously worked
both for SACA and TTG with coaching and comes highly recommended
from Bruce and the junior coaching group. Ring Tim on 0421 621
629 - leave a message and he will get back to you. Part
proceeds will be going to the club. Coaching services available
to anyone.
Did you Know
That whilst there is A or B Grade cricket being played on
Pertaringa Oval - Schooners $3, Pints $4 of beer / cider.
Concludes at the finish of the days play.
The Footballers are currently undefeated, and there is a 3 way
competition between Pitt, Black & Sleep for most runs, all
scoring heavily at this time.
Trav Head recently returned from India with the Aussie U19 team
and his father could not pick him out in a bunch of photos in
the Australian 1 day uniform.
Nuggett Hunter only received the call up to B Grade late Friday,
went in at 4/40 and nicked and nudged his way to 160 not out off
140 balls. First B Grade ton, well done Nug.
First time in my memory that A and B Grade have both scored over
300 in the same day.
Sunday - we welcome the women onto both Perti and Bulkana, got

8/11/11 President's Update
An excellent result on Saturday night with the Blue Gums
supplying 108 meals to our people, not quite to my target of
120, but getting there. Thanks to all those that are supporting
the meals, I know my "Salt & Pepper Squid" was excellent, and
Sleepy reckons my salt and pepper squid was ok as well.
Congratulations to the 4 senior men's teams who had convincing
wins on the weekend and celebrated in style back at the club.
Your support of the club is appreciated and necessary for us to
continue move forward. The junior teams continue to work hard
and the development is not always obvious on the scoreboard.
The unusual story of the week appears to be the "streakers" at
the U16 Red game. Apparently the game was interrupted by 3
males who decided that the "full monty" and a "irish jig" on the
centre wicket at Cain Reserve was called for due to the extreme
heat. After the impromptu performance, they were last seen
disappearing into the suburbs of Prospect, free to perform on
another occasion.
This week sees the return of the A Grade to Pertaringa, coming
off a commanding performance against Prospect, albeit with areas
they can improve on, with a two day game on Saturday / Saturday
and the replay of the abandoned 1 day game on the Sunday. It
promises to be an exciting weekend of cricket on our main oval
which is slowly seeing the benefit of the work the council have
completed on it, come early December it should be amongst the
best in the competition. Sunday the BBQ will be on, with
Steaks, Sausages, etc.
Did you know that whilst the A or B Grade are playing on Perti,
the cost of Schooners of Beer is $3 and Pints $4. This will be
in vogue all season and just an incentive for past players,
supporters or whoever to come and watch a bit of cricket,
hopefully the players can entertain.
Reminder
Having a show, think about using our club, give me a call.
Bottle drive - collect your empties, bring them to the club and
put them in the blue bins out the front, it all goes to cricket
& helps support your club, get your neighbours involved as well,
the more the merrier.

11/8/11 Congratulations to Travis Head - To Tour IndiaMEDIA RELEASE 8 August 2011 Australia Under-19 squad named for tour to India The Cricket Australia Youth Selection Panel (YSP) today announced a 14-player squad who will travel to India for a three week tour against the hosts and Sri Lanka, led by coach David Fitzgerald. The Australia Under-19 squad for the tour to India is:
Commenting on the squad, National Talent Manager Greg Chappell said: “The YSP has made a number of changes to the squad that played matches against the West Indies in Dubai in April as some who were not there are now available for selection. Unfortunately, Cricket Australia contracted player Patrick Cummins is not one of those players, due to his ongoing recovery from a back injury. The new players coming in provide the YSP and coach David Fitzgerald a great opportunity to give international experience to a wide range of talented youngsters with the ultimate focus being the ICC Youth World Cup in Australia in 2012. “Cameron Bancroft and James Peirson starred in the matches in April and since then both have been away with the AIS team to Chennai, India. Our view is their games have continued to improve and these matches give them an opportunity to show off their skills. Fast bowler Dom McGlinchey from Geelong, is a new member of the under 19 squad and impressed us on recent state visits to Victoria, which were attended by Australian bowling coach Craig McDermott. Dom also attended the Kerry Packer scholarship camp at the COE earlier this year,” Mr Chappell added. The role of captain will be shared throughout the tour. The tour of India will commence on 22 September, however exact match dates and venues are yet to be confirmed at this stage. 10/8/11 The TTGDCC merges with the JetsThe Tea Tree Gully District Cricket Club will be merging with the Northern Districts Cricket Club (The Jets) for the 20011-12 cricket season and will have a combined A grade and a combined B Grade. Each club will still have their own C Grade known as the Women's Powerade 20/20 Cup.
Pre-season practice will
commence on Tuesday 16th August at St Jays Indoor Centre - 5.30 PM to
7.30 PM. Come along and introduce yourself to the coach - James
Chapman

Sports clubs such as ours play a significant role in the community and therefore have a responsibility to our members and their families. In recognition of this, the Tea Tree Gully District Cricket Club has elected to participate in the Australian Drug Foundation’s Good Sports program.
The program is run in South Australia by Drug & Alcohol Services SA with the support of the Motor Accident Commission and the Department of Health and Ageing. The program has been designed to assist clubs with the responsible management of alcohol and is the only nationwide program of its kind.
As a community based club we believe involvement in this program is a way for our club to promote a healthy and welcoming club culture whilst working to consistently meet our duty of care obligations in regards to alcohol consumption.
To become Good Sports Level 1 accredited we will address a number of criteria including having Responsible Serving of Alcohol trained bar staff and our facilities will be smoke free.
For more information about the Good Sports program contact Tea Tree Gully District Cricket Club, Club Administrator Bruce Jamieson on: 0418 899 108.
Rest in Peace

This year we will be welcoming Liam Kinch, Josh Cobb from Leicester county Cricket Club and Joe Gatting from Sussex County Cricket Club .
Josh returning to TTG after Christmas and Joe will be coming out after his time with Sussex at the T20 Champions Trophy in India
Joe Stephen Gatting - Sussex
|
Born November 25,
1987, Brighton, Sussex |
![]() |
Like his father, Steve, Joe Gatting was on the books at Brighton & Hove Albion for three seasons, but when offered a chance to join Sussex's cricket academy turned his back on football. He made an immediate impression as a top-order batsman when he scored a good hundred against Surrey in the pre-season Pro Arch Trophy in Abu Dhabi, and followed with a big hundred on his first-class debut against Cambridge UCCE.
Josh Cobb - Leicestershire
| Born -
Leicester, August 17, 1990 Joined - Leicestershire 2007 Role - Right Hand Batsman, Leg Break Bowler Family Links - Dad Russell played for County (1980-89) Teams Represented - Leicestershire Honours - England under-19s tour to South Africa Highlight of Career - 148* at Lord's and becoming Leicestershire's youngest-ever centurion Players Admired - Shane Warne, Darren Stevens, Paul Nixon Relaxations - Reading, socialising with friends, listening to music
|
![]() |
Cobb became the County’s youngest centurion in 2008, making
a majestic unbeaten 148 against Middlesex at Lord’s.
The teenager shared a 270-run stand with HD Ackerman at the home of
cricket - the highest for any wicket against Middlesex in history -
which showed instant progression from promising knocks against both
Warwickshire and Gloucestershire.
Cobb continued that good form by topping the club’s Championship
averages, adding a further two half-centuries along the way in a most
promising season after finishing his studies.
Son of former Leicestershire batsman Russell, Cobb is a top-order
batsman who can also bowl useful leg breaks, proven by the fact he took
four wickets in just 19 Championship overs last season.
Made his first-class debut for Leicestershire towards the end of the
2007 season shortly after his 17th birthday.
Cobb also appeared at Lord’s for club side Kibworth in the Cockspur Cup
final of 2007 and is a former student of Oakham School, like former
County all-rounder Stuart Broad and current batsman Matthew Boyce.
Cobb made his second-XI debut in 2006, and also represented the club’s
academy against Victoria Emerging Players in 2007, scoring an unbeaten
102. After a successful 2008 campaign with County, Cobb gained his first
international recognition by being selected to tour South Africa with
England under 19s, where he came second in the one-day averages at an
excellent 42.00.
Signed a new three-year deal with County to see him through to the end
of the 2011 season.

About Febluary
Expect to see a lot more
blue on the oval this season as cricketers pitch in to help spread the
mental health message far and wide.
The Febluary campaign aims to raise
awareness of depression, anxiety and related mental health disorders for
beyondblue: the national depression initiative.
It is an initiative of the Southern District Cricket Club and is
supported by the South Australian Cricket Association (SACA).
An official launch of Febluary will be held
at the Adelaide Oval on Sunday February 1 with club representatives.
Thirteen of SACA’s Grade Cricket Clubs are taking part in
Febluary by wearing blue at matches on
February 7 and February 14. Around 1400 Grade cricketers and umpires
will celebrate SACA’s Febluary Round.
What is
beyondblue: the national depression initiative?
beyondblue is a national, independent, not-for-profit organisation
working to address issues associated with depression, anxiety and
related substance-use disorders in Australia.
beyondblue is a bipartisan initiative of the Australian, State and
Territory Governments with the key goals of raising community awareness
about depression and anxiety and reducing stigma associated with the
illness.
beyondblue works in partnership with health services, schools,
workplaces, universities, media and community organisations, as well as
people living with depression, to bring together their expertise.
Health
messages
One in five people will experience depression at some time in their
lives.
Depression is more than just a low mood – it can be a serious illness
that requires attention; seeking help early is a good first step.
With the right treatment, most people recover from depression.
Men are often reluctant to seek help for themselves, but they go to
great lengths to help a mate.
Be aware of how your mates are travelling. If you notice any changes
in the behaviour of a mate, be there to offer support. If your mate
doesn't seem to be coping, help them to get an appointment to see a GP
or other health professional.
For more information about depression, anxiety and related drug and
alcohol problems visit www.beyondblue.org.au or call the beyondblue info
line on
1300 22 4636 (local call from a landline).
Peter Sleep appointed as TTGDCC Coach
“Peter Sleep was born in Mt Gambier and moved to Adelaide to play under age and club cricket for Kensington who identified his talent and competitive nature through country carnivals. He played grade cricket for Kensington from age 17 and quickly was identified through SACA talent squads as having the technique / ability / mental toughness to play State cricket. He made his senior state debut whilst still playing at Kensington. He played a major role in their premiership in the early 80’s, making an outstanding 100 in a semi final on Adelaide No. 2, chasing a large Salisbury total, against a quality attack.
The following year saw him playing for the Salisbury club, adding further depth to a side that had players such as Bishop, Bradbrook, Causby, Jolly, Prior, Zadow and later Lehmann, Fielke, Opperman, Heindrik, no wonder they dominated grade cricket for 16-17 years, winning 9 grade premierships.
His contribution to cricket in South Australia was outstanding as a player and competitor. Playing for Kensington, Adelaide and Salisbury in Grade cricket he made 6220 runs at 40.92 and took 409 wickets at an average of 21.23. His First Class statistics (1976 -1994) make outstanding reading, playing 175 games, taking 363 wickets with his leg spin and making 8201 runs. He made his test debut in1979 and played 14games, taking 31 wickets and making 483 runs at an average of 24.14 . His approach to cricket was exactly the same, whether playing a grade game at Salisbury Oval or a test match on the MCG. He was an intense competitor, who took great pride in his performances.
He was probably the best all round grade cricketer I have had the pleasure to see, impacting on a game with his batting, bowling or outstanding fielding.
He has coached at Salisbury and with Lancashire in the English country scene as well as specialist coaching with many of the English under age teams. He brings a wealth of knowledge, experience and a competitive desire to be successful to TTG. “
