Ah so that's the reason we (Penfield) have been scheduled round 1 @ Banksia Park High School, I hope more work goes into that oval this year as it wasn't fantastic last time we played there. But its the same for both teams I guess


I would say so mate, I think its either Banksia Park High or Modbury High. Both have pro's and cons thats for sure. TTG used to play their U16s at Banksia High back in the day and it used to be a nightmare :lol: , its much better than it was (well looks like it - not sure how it plays though) :lol:

Will be garbage as in the past. No disrespect.
Throw in the sprinklers coming on during school holidays on Friday nights.
Will be plenty of issues no doubt.
Good luck.


I remember rocking up to Banksia Park High to play quite a few years ago and they had the old Victa mower out on the pitch. Concerns were heightened when the mower got bogged in the footmarks on the crease line and dirt and all sorts of stuff was sent flying into the air. Made 50 odd that day :lol:

Not bad but not great!!!

Bowled well on a wet deck early to have em about 5/10 and then they ended up making about 150.

We didn't bat that well and ended up getting rolled for about 90 odd. Jets bowled well, but we played some poor shots.

Also i was robbed of a double hundred due to being run out. :lol: Shame really.

I'm hearing Goodwood are getting an Overseas player next Thursday. Very young but plenty of talent to show, probably won't start in the 1's but should be there by the seasons end. Hopefully the flat decks down here don't break him....

Surely if he is an oversees player that has some ability he starts in the 1s in Adelaide Turf ?

He is 19 years old. As per Goodwood CC policy he is not getting any sort of money to play, just help with finding work and somewhere to live.

Who said he was?

Fair few recruits heading out Goodwood way. Seems Hooch has you guys heading in the right direction!

Speaking of recruiting, seems PAOCCC are doing a little of their own:

PAOCCC are looking for scorer for their A1 Premier Grade team for the 2013-14 season. The role would suit a junior cricketer or retired cricket lover.

The role includes a cash honorarium of $80 per day. Please contact Brad Weidenhofer on 0421 521 615 if you are interested.

Interesting move, I would have thought an A1 club wouldn't have had scorer related issues!

I hope not. I for one looked forward to his insights.

Agreed Plumb. I know a few didn't like what he had to say but why they couldn't just skip his posts is beyond me. It's not like he made heaps of them anyway. Now the rest of us miss out!!!

Anyway, on to matters at hand, how are the wickets looking for this weekend? Will the few showers forecast for tommorrow cause problems or are most confident they'll be right?

Well I think in simple terms if you have them and don't use them you forfeit the game.

That's the gist of it, but you also have to let the turf know you have them, otherwise when they cancel all games yours will get cancelled as well.


D6. INCLEMENT WEATHER - ATTENDANCE AT GROUND/HEAT POLICY

(a) In the event of inclement weather the Emergency Committee is empowered, after inspection of various grounds, to call off play for the day in any or all matches. The Executive Officer at his discretion may not abandoned games where Clubs have notified the Executive Officer in writing prior to the commencement of the season that club covers are available for use as per Bylaw D38. Such a decision shall be announced over the ATCA website and will be available on 1900 950 598 by 10.00am on day of the match.



Clubs are instructed to notify the ATCA in writing before the commencement of the season that covers will be provided as per attached bylaw D38.
