25.01.2022 Hi all , Don’t forget , training tonight at Westbury starting 5.30pm. See you all there. Bring a water bottle

25.01.2022 Seen a massive amount of runs at NTCA 1 in a game that you would see very rarely... Launceston's 6/348 is the highest One Day score against Westbury in Westbury's NTCA history, previously beating Riverside's 7/321 in season 2000-01 at Westbury. Westbury's reply of 8/340 is Westbury's 2nd highest OD score, one short of the 4/341 against George Town in season 2012-13.... It will also need confirmation and will be published in the morning if confirmed, but Chathura Athukorala (Chooka) with his knock of 163 may have scored the highest knock in a One Day fixture for Westbury for some 32 years.

25.01.2022 It’s been a busy week on the shamrocks socials, so we have decided to incorporate two Cock'n'Bull British Pub player/volunteers of the week in one. Last weeks volunteer of the week goes to Kaleb Williams who has stepped up to take on the coaching role of the Westbury under 16’s side. It is fantastic to have the young brigade stepping up and helping guide the future generations of shamrocks. Last weeks player of the week also went to Joe Griffen who made 90 off 75 balls in second grade before earning his a grade debut in a tight game against launceston. Well done to both boys!!

23.01.2022 Welcome to the new year with a weekend of T20s for both 1st and 2nd Grade teams.

23.01.2022 After some overnight checking to confirm, we can confirm that "Chooka" has got a record to his books... His 163 yesterday is the highest individual score for Westbury in all One Day Competitions in the NTCA History. It has beaten the 142 by Graeme Claxton against Kingborough in season 1988-89. ... As well, the knock is also 10th in all comps in Westbury's NTCA History, going past Stephen Small's 161* in season 1982-83 against Mowbray.

22.01.2022 Last night we presented Make Runs Maxi with a cheque totalling $3,500 raised through our raffle, shirts and generous donations. Without the support of Mowbray Cricket Club, ISC Sport, and the Walters family the Make Runs Maxi weekend would not have been so successful. Mental health is something that affects all of us at various stages of life and to raise money and awareness for this wonderful charity who do great things in our local community is awesome! I’m sure Maxi woul...d be proud of all of us. A special thank you to Walters Contracting Pty Ltd, Cock'n'Bull British Pub, The Carrick Inn Hotel, Mole Creek Hotel and Tassie Tiger Bar, Huett's Shell Service Station, Christmas Hills Raspberry Farm Cafe, and all those that kindly donated prizes for the MRM raffle. Once again thank you to everyone who has contributed by buying a raffle ticket, purchased a shirt, sold tickets or made a donation. It's been an overwhelming response and we're so proud as a club to raise money and support such a wonderful foundation.

16.01.2022 Big day for the Chook. Following his 163 off 100 rocks today, has carried club pest Kobe Moore to the annual Shamrocks Beer Pong title. All hail the King

16.01.2022 Last cricket season Craig Dodson, a 42-year-old cricket tragic, set a world record by playing 11 games of cricket for 11 different clubs across Australia, while raising funds for mental health foundation Gotcha4Life. Craig travelled over 10,000 kms, pulling on the whites for a diverse mix of fantastic cricket clubs. He found himself trapped by a bushfire, travelling 1600 kilometres one day just for a Golden Duck and was given a hand by greats of the game like Greg Chappell a...nd Darren Lehmann along the way. It was an epic sporting and lifetime adventure. Craig went through a battle with depression a decade ago and, thankfully, came out the other side. He committed himself to using the tour to raise funds for mental health as well as helping people along the way by sharing his story. In the end Craig’s adventure raised $10,000. Craig has now turned his adventure into a book (with all proceeds going to charity). If you are interested in having a great read about cricket and the people and places of Australia, (all while supporting a good cause), please grab a copy via the link below for $20: https://inhousebookstore.com.au//a-view-of-australia-from-
