Re: Williamstown and District Cricket Association 2010/11
You could always name the turf grades A1, A2, A3 so everyone on turf can say they play A grade cricket!
Just joking ;P
Just stick with 8 team A, B, C, etc. turf gradings

Re: Williamstown and District Cricket Association 2010/11
saw the gradings for the season. The committee musnt be too smart I dont think. Why have the 2 A-turf sections and then the reserves both B-turfs? Good decision to do the 1sts home, 2nds away system but why not do it like the VTCA and call the real A-Turf and their reserves A1 and A2, and then second section B1 and B2?
Also looks like A2 section will be playing games on Matts, thanks to Melton. They should be put down in C Composite til they get turf grounds. By the way Go sainters!

As far as we are aware our first eleven is competing in B turf and our second Eleven will be competing in the c composite grade . But also heard that ground availibility could be an issue so we will wait and see like everyone else.
Enjoy your cricket Bowler

Re: Williamstown and District Cricket Association 2010/11
I have to agree with Bowler, I believe our 1st eleven will be playing all games on turf, grounds supplied by the competition which was a similar senario when you were in the WSUCCA. Our 2nd eleven will be in the compositite grade, as it is still awaiting confimation from WADCA so dont know where you got your info from as I believe all to be revealed this coming Friday. It would be a bit silly putting our and Melton Centrals (top 2 teams of A grade WSUCCA last season) into the composite grade then other clubs would not be happy if both teams were to dominate in that grade. We have to start somewhere while awaiting our council to develope a new ground for both our clubs, we cant all be lucky like your club and be given a great ground on a platter after Sunshine United moved to Albion many years ago. Pennell is and always was a great ground and wicket so be thankful you have it. Anyway all the best for the coming season.

Re: Williamstown and District Cricket Association 2010/11
As I am not in the comp, I do not know the state of turf wickets but does anyone know what turf grounds Melton clubs will use? I cannot think of any turf grounds teams will gladly give up for Melton sides. Maybe their 1sts will play away til they can get one, that means their seconds will always play at home on the matts.
From the meeting last night Melton people, the gradings are set up VTCA style, 1sts play at home, 2nds play same team away. Melton Centrals and Melton South are in A2 and B2, not Composite. It just probably takes a little while to get the info out to the woop woop teams.
Clear the Picketts, I havent been at the club for that length of time, but I think that there could have been a gap in between Sunshine United leaving to go to Selwyn and us moving into Pennell. Don't know for sure, however, so I might need to do some searching for that info.
Remember Melton sides, front foot on turf

Re: Williamstown and District Cricket Association 2010/11
Yes i believe Sunshine 3rds or ladies had pennell for a while and also Druids at one stage before you guys got the ground after Sunshine United went to selwyn park, As for us and centrals well we believe our 1s will be playing away each week 2s will play on matts at home some they must be in composite unless both will play away not sure as yet. and yes get on the front foot at least at your ground you can do that with confidence that the ball will come on to the bat some play slow thus having you letting the ball to come to you to get the feel of the pace of the wicket. Some of the WSUCCA wickets were too slow even later on in the season this comes down to the curator you must get a good one who puts the time and effort in to get the best rewards. And thanks for the info on the coming season all the best cheers.

Re: Williamstown and District Cricket Association 2010/11
You should know better, round 1 will be called off, although Angliss Pitches are looking immaculate, probably because no footy on there. In the VTCA we plan for a round 2-3 start as per usual
With B2 (your seconds) Clear the Pickets, there will be 3 teams that have to play on matts as there is no turf grounds but it is still b-turf 2, C composite only has 1 turf ground in it from what I gather. Have you kept your players ffrom last season? Leroy still coaching on a packet? Least he will be on turf now
