Events This Saturday
Look out for "Howzat", the club newsletter - including a player profile of Mick Bellamy. Ask your captain if you didn't get one.. There are things in Howzat which are not on the website so make sure your read it.
There will be a BBQ held at the South Tamworth Bowlo ($5 per head) after play on Saturday. This will be our last BBQ at the Bowlo before Christmas as the area is booked out and also a chance to celebrate Dan Mitchell's birthday and send Paul Fisher off with our best, so lets make it a big roll up. It should be our regular haunt after the Christmas break. The Social Committee is currently hatching some plans for other social events before the fat guy in the red suit (and we're not talkin' Higgo in his disco gear) arrives, so stay tuned.

Advanced Unavailability
All players should please note ... if you have dates anywhere within the cricket season (see "TDCA Draw" for reference) for which you know you will be unavailable (Uncle Fred's wedding, those two weeks in Bali), can you let your captains or Simon Hood know (see "Who Do You Call" page) ASAP to assist with planning for selections.

Bad Weather Wrecked Cricket on 7th November
Following 45mm of rain in the 24 hours before 9:00am Saturday, the chance of cricket in the any grades went beyond dim to non-existent. The forecast, scattered showers or rain areas, easing later, isolated thunderstorms, light to moderate east to northeast winds and 26c didn't make it any better. Announcements were made on the radio well before 11:00am and a text message was sent to all members at 10:45am. Bummer.
The club BBQ which was to be held tonight at the South Tamworth Bowling Club has also been cancelled for but we'll catch up next week.
Cricket Training Cancelled Friday 6th Dec
Owing to a heavy downpour affecting the training grounds at McCarthy HS after lunch today, training that was scheduled for this afternoon has been cancelled.

Another Big Saturday in City Colours
Every Saturday is a chance for glory when you're a City man! No exceptions this week.
A few guys out of the firsts opens up some opportunities for blokes who have been doing well in the first few weeks of the 2nd grade season. Ben Semmler joins the team following a Pfeiffer last weekend and few runs in chase of victory. Anthony Cashman takes a batting spot after a first day of the season unbeaten hundred and the reliable Tim Skewes - no stranger to top grade - will come in on the second week.
In 2nds, Pierre Steyn and Ryan Sippel join the team from thirds. Sip is a brilliant fieldsman and will give the side some zest and Pierre is a lower order batsman in form who will be taking over the captaincy when Paul Fisher leaves after this game for a shoulder re-con. Hamish Batley gets half a game as reward for his good season start in 3rds.
As you would imagine, the shuffling continues to 3rds but its not all one way traffic, with Doug Cederblad back from the 2nds to add to an already strong bowling line up. Simon Bellamy (full game) and Matt Ballantyne, Kyle Eather and John Kennedy (half games) all get a chance coming up from the 4ths.
4ths grade continues to bracket players in order to expose them all for a few games before chosing the squad of fifteen. See Team Selections for more details.
Don't forget to read your Newsletter ... it will be the one featuring Michael Bellamy in the player profile and come back to the South Tamworth Bowling Club after the game for a quiet, cool drink and a BBQ (cost a few $). See you there and around the grounds. Smile!
