23.01.2022 Season 20/21 is coming up - with two seasons behind us and two premierships, we want to make this upcoming even better. This year, We intend to give this season a red hot crack at getting another two premierships, so we need some new members to bolster the ranks and give some capacity in case of injuries. We are a club made up if members from all across the region even, some even come down from Melbourne to play with us. If you have played in the region, you will see familia...r faces. Old rivalries are forgotten, the love of the game, the passion for winning, the enjoyment of playing, the benefits of making new friends are all benefits of playing. So if you know anyone who is keen to play over 50s cricket, get the word out to them about the club. Our over50s team also has links and is a feeder club into the regions over 60s teams as well - so you dont just have to be just over 50 mark - you can be well into the 50s to join and them have a ongoing pathway for longer term cricketing enjoyment. Give Roachy (0487 721 128) or Nigel (0408704334) their name and number and we can make contact with them in regards to the up coming season.

07.01.2022 Semi Final Round Summary Both A Grade and B Grade Teams were in the Semi finals over the weekend. With A Grade playing at Home (Lara) against tough opposition from East Ringwood. In a tight game, Geelong won the toss and batted 1st, setting a tough total of 5/216 of the 36 overs. East Ringwood batted well and were in the chase but fell short scoring 6/206. ... Great game and a great win for our A Graders. Into the Grand Final in a couple of weeks...... B Grade played away to a strong Deakin team based in Burwood. Deakin won the toss and elected to bat, putting on a display of power shots, pushing the fielders out and then started to noodle the ball around for quick 1s and 2s. Whilst we did manage to knock a few of their batsmen over, a run rate above 5/over was always a tough ask. Undaunted Geelong went into bat and started well but couldnt break the ring of fielders based on the boundary. Never really getting on top of the run chase, we went down fighting all the way, but fell short making 8/152. Score sheet below for both Games WELL DONE to the A Graders in making the Final on the 23rd February against Upwey-Tecoma Good luck lads
