You forgot the square at Christies is short by about 3m.......square stops at the stumps each end. Not recommended by CA in their design guidelines!the smokey wrote:tigerfan11 wrote:Standard Prospect recruiting. Thought they may have learnt from previous attempts.

the junior program at Prospect from all reports is getting better but they still seem to lose 2-4 players every year from the 14's & 16's to other clubs. And replace these reasonably talented crickets with the off cuts of the stronger clubs.
I know its a long time ago but Southerns used to have a really strong junior system and have started to pick it up again in the last few years. I see the main issue with Southerns is the standard of there grounds outside of Bice oval.
there under 16's were the only under 16 club to still play on hard wicket which hinders development, and then they play the 3rd and 4th grade cricket on Christie's Beach High school which is the worst ground in senior cricket!
I feel for a lot of there younger senior cricketers trying to score runs on that wicket with an incredibly slow outfield every home game!! This causes players to leave for other clubs or cease playing cricket altogether.

If the Pirates are throwing money and leadership roles around does that mean that Miller is not playing?, same coach as previous seasons?

Now the schools and national Cricket Australia programs seem to be the focus. Grade clubs left to fend for themselves a bit more. The clubs with good structures have continued along fine. The ones who perhaps relied heavily on SACA support have struggled.

The concern on the game with club players, that’s why most community/country cricket will end up T20, along with lower grades at Premier, to a point only 2 day cricket might only be 1s and 2s Premier. All lower grades will be 50 / 20 over cricket.

Only issue there is the relationship between the cricket club and the school.....no idea what it's like but any structure would belong to the education department.Tony Clifton wrote:Christies beach high school would be fine if they added a shade structure and a toilet block and mowed the outfield.

Probably but you have seen the Yatala fencing protecting the buildings?

They'd surely want one too and it's used by little athletics as well. I'm sure they'd love some amenities. Smart schools get upgrades to their facilities for free
