Our club’s values and ‘personalities’ are the things that make City one of the best.


 Tezza Kamp is one of those personalities that are the first one picked in our team. As Tezza has progressed through the grades he has been able to lift to that higher standard of cricket and perform. 


I don't drink
I don't smoke
I don't sniff no coke
New age
That's me
And that's what you should be
I am Mr Natural
You can call me Mr Natural
I live by the stars
I don't eat no meat
I am Mr Complete
I am Mr Natural
You can call me Mr Natural
I don't wear no skin
I don't care who wins
When I know that I'm right
I don't get uptight
I am Mr Natural
You can call me Mr Natural

lyrics from Mental as Anything

 


 GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Tezza Kampe our Mr Natural CITY

A snap shot of City United Presentation Night

I woke up with a strange tattoo
 Not sure how I got it, not a dollar in my pocket
 And it kinda looks just like you
 Mixed with Zach Galifianakis
 
La la la, whatever, la la la, it doesn't matter, la la la, oh well, la la la
 
We're going at it tonight tonight
 There's a party on the rooftop top of the world
 Tonight tonight and we're dancing on the edge of the Hollywood sign
 I don't know if I'll make it but watch how good I'll fake it
 It's all right, all right, tonight, tonight

HOT CHELLE RAE LYRICS 
"Tonight, Tonight"
 

 
 






GOOOOOOOOOOO a good night was had by all CITY

Anthony said it was great to see the immergence of four very talented junior cricketers.
Noah Pitt at 12 years finished the season batting at No 3, Josh Cooke age 12 years opened the bowling, Brody Gregg was our death bowler and James Wallace with his BIG leg spinners.
Four of City Talented Juniors
Not to say the old blocks didn’t play their part, Ronnie, Chewy, Dougie and then you had the fathers in Rob, Russell, Cookey, and Les.
Lastly I can see a premiership in the near future for this side and would love to see it before these fantastic juniors move on to bigger and better things through the higher grades at City.
GOOOOOOOOOOO  CITY

Peter Mead summed up the season in two matches where City played and beat both of the Grand Finalist in Old Boys and Souths.  I was pleasantly surprised and it was fantastic. We can take alot of confidence from these two matches. We invested so much energy and will power, this team played some very high standard of cricket in these two matches to win against two quality teams. 
 Peter also made special mention of Jack McVey with his work ethic both on and off the paddock. Jack is an outstanding bowler. Michael Bellamy innings against Souths was also mentioned where Michael was so aggressive at the square both in his defensive and attacking shots.

City United's pass and future players were all there.

 
City United's Life Member Frank Gooley was a special guest at our Presentation Night. Frank was presented with a framed photo of himself in his playing days. Frank is the best opening batsmen I have ever played with or against. His playing time with City extended from 1975 through to 1998 in his final match Frank went out in style, with another hundred next to his name.

 


Frank might have represented passed players but our future City stars were there in force as well. This group of young men all played their first season of Grade Cricket with City this season. They loved it and matured as cricketers as the season progressed.

 

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO we have a rich history at City
