Golden Grove Cricket Club - Home of the Brumbies

The following trophies were awarded at the Club's Senior Presentation Night on 31 March 2012. 

Trophies are based on the minor round only.

Congratulations to all senior members.  Golden Grove will have all four senior sides playing in the Grand Final next weekend.  After playing for this Club since I was 15 (and I'm now 30), I can honestyly say that I have never been prouder to be a member of this Club than I am tonight.  It is a credit to to the Senior Coach, Jay Indraratne, and all of the players that we have made it to FOUR Grand Finals.

There were some outstanding performance in all grades in the semi final...

A Grade
Jaydon Tatarelli 145
Brade Anderson 108
Gavin Lynch 3/37
Creaig Jomartz 3/55
Codey Marchesi 2/47

Congratulations to the Under 13 Brumbies who took out the NEJCA Under 13 North Premiership.  The lads knocked up 8/209 in their 50 overs on the first day, then bowled Payneham Knights out for 83 on the second day.

Great work, boys!

PLEASE NOTE THE CHANGE IN START TIME FOR THE C & D GRADES.

For the first time in the Club's turf history, all Senior sides have made it into the finals.  Congratulations to the A and C Grades who finished Minor Premiers.  The B Grade finish 4th and the D Grade finished 3rd.

Congratulations to the Under 13 Brumbies who have made it into the Grand Final agains Payneham Knights on Sund March 11 and 18.  The game will be played at Wynn Vale Oval from 8:30am.  It would be great to see as many people out there as possible to support the lads.

The Committee wishes to remind all Golden Grove and opposition players and supporters that parking at Wynn Vale Oval is restricted to the car parks near the netball courts.  Please do not park in the church or Salvation Army car parks as they are required for the members of those organisations.

The Club is participating in the People’s Choice Credit Union Community Lottery again this year. We have applied for 100 books (10 tickets per book at $2 each).  Last season, the Seniors sold 150 books.  100% of the profits come back to the Club – last year we made $3,000 and this year it will be $2,000. 

Gavin Lynch (6/36) and Brad Anderson (91) helped the A Grade to their 8th straight win of the season.  The lads bowled Woodville Rechabites out for 132 and are 5/192 at stumps on Day One.

Mr. Yap hit 79* and took 3-for in the C Grade's win over International Cricketers Club at Harper's Field.  It has been said that it was lovely to watch the Yappy of old with the bat in his hand.

Chip Jarvis took 6/24 in the D Grade's win over Brahma Lodge in his first game back after having missed most of the first hal of the season.  Nice work from a talented cricketer and a top bloke.

Saturday was a good day for the Club with three of the four senior sides claiming a win.

Congratulations to Jake Richards who was selected to represent the SAMCA U/17 playing in the BankSA Cup and to Liam Salter and Matt Herrmann who have been selected to represent the U/15 Northern Division SAMCA team.

Now that the Christmas break is upon us, it is a good time to summarise how each of our teams are going this season.

Brad Anderson has been slected in the ATCA Under 21 squad to play SA Churches on Sunday 11 December at Kilburn Oval.  It would be great to see as many Brumbies out there as possible to support Brad.  His selection is reward for the outstanding season he is having in the A Grade; 312 runs @ 62.4 with a top score of 120 and 9 wickets at 15.8 with best bowling of 3/45.

Matthew Hopper made 137 not out in the Under 15 Green team's Round 4 victory over Eastern Suburbs 2.  Congratulations Matthew, it's great to see our younger members scoring the big runs!
