Under 11 Cubs Coach required
As we have now hit two cubs teams, we are looking to see if any of our club members might have some interest in taking the reigns and being the COACH of one of these teams. Cubs cricket is for 7-9 year olds and played on a Friday night. Training is held Monday nights (however there is no need to attend if you don’t want to). Here is what you will get if you decide to lead one of these teams:
If you do have any interest in taking up this role, please get in touch with Mark Webb on email markwebb79@hotmail.com or mobile (0406 286 290).

If so, please help Seddon Cricket Club and vote for a new Automated cricket pitch roller (see link below). We need as many votes as possible, with voting closing at 5pm on Monday 17 September.
https://pickmyproject.vic.gov.au/rounds/pick-my-project/ideas/automated-cricket-pitch-roller Please share the link with friends, family, work colleagues, neighbours, local businesses and people you don't like - basically any one who lives within a 5km radius of Seddon Cricket Club and who are therefore eligible to vote for our project. Why do we need a new Automated cricket pitch roller? The current manual roller is on it's last legs and our voluntary curator - the great man Geoff Price - needs all the help he can get to ensure we continue to prepare quality wickets for our senior sides. The more votes we get, the better the chance we have of our project getting selected and obtaining funding from the State Government. It's that simple! The countdown to 100! Club Members should have received an email invitation via paperless post to a club fundraiser event we're holding on Saturday 6th October. The event is the Seddon CC 94th birthday party - which will be an annual event as we count down to 100 years as a cricket club in six years (2024).
If you did not receive the email invitation, please check your junk mail folder for details and or reply and let me know if you'd like to attend and we will forward the details to another email address. We will also be sending out a reminder email tonight. Please note we have had a number of bounced emails, so if you know of club members who do not know about this event, please ask them to contact me ASAP. However we do have a limit on attendees due to space, but it seems we should be fine to extend the invitation to family and friends. So if you know of others who like going to birthday parties where everything is paid for, where the gift idea is simple, the location is familiar, please let me know by return email and I'll do my best to ensure we have a place reserved for them. Just send me their first names and surnames and their main email address to send the invite. This will be a fun night to fire up the start of the season, so I urge you to come along and support this event. It's a fundraiser with a live entertainer, fully stocked bar and an abundance of finger food. Entry is strictly by way of prior payment and confirmation for catering and ease of running the event on the night. If you have already indicated you will be attending and haven't paid as yet, I urge you to send your $100pp payment to the club's bank account ASAP via EFT (see below for NEW BANK ACCOUNT DETAILS), so we can mark you off the chase list.
