Full credit to the Bulls --- three Flags is more than my mob has won in half a decade.
However the "Champion Club award" to me is just a token. It should be renamed because the title is misleading. I will always proclaim that in my opinion the true champion club is the A-Grade Premiers, even if they finish bottom in all other grades.

thats a fair point!
All sides are there to make the a's as strong as possible!
But it is also a reward for all the lower grades performing well I think!
it should stay the way it is with the introduction of points depending on the grade as said earlier!

Have to say that some of the best celebrations we had when I was at a grade club came when we won our first club championship! The whole club got to celebrate together and it took a few grades pulling off unlikely wins to snare it. Allows the whole club to contribute and can give grades out of finals contention something to play for in the last couple of rounds. I reckon it is a great concept and wish that the ATCA would bring in a similar award.

Exactly we had won 14 of our last 16 games to come from 3rd bottom of the club championship table. We had our c grade score 1300 runs after christmas and 5 hundreds scored by c grade batsman. Our A grade one 4 of there last 6 and B's won all after christmas including the premiership. The whole club then celebrates together no segmentation between grades etc It needs to stay the same.... the club that as a whole wins the most games is the best club.... Yes your main aim is an A grade permiership but as a club you want to win the most games you can

Good to see you back Shark Hunter after your hiatus from these forums for a while.
I can see how it works in Grade Cricket where all clubs have an equal number of sides, jsut think it would be tough to bring it in in ATCA due to the large difference many clubs have in teams fielded in the competition. IF they could do it it would be interesting, jsut cant see how it would be an even playing field.
