The Bayside Cup is a cricket tournament held annually on Australia Day at Bonbeach Reserve (Ovals 1, 2, 3 & 4). Last year the tournament had 8 teams from 4 different leagues participating in the day. The competition is split into 2 pools of 4 or 5 clubs, and every club plays 3 games before the top 2 from each pool proceed into the finals to play for the Bayside Cup and the $1000 Cash Prize. Runner up also recieves $250.

The games are T/10 with similar restrictions to what's played in the VTCA (fielding restrictions etc.). The Grandfinal is then played as a T/20. All games are played on Turf with 2 new balls provided for each game.

Clubs are allowed 2 players that are not registered with them to play with them in this tournament. This was used last year to encourage Clubs that have district players etc. to come back and play with them in the tournament.

The tournament was a success last year drawing alot of support from cricket fans in the area. There are BBQ and Beer Tents available on the day as well.

Currently we're looking for a couple of clubs to top up numbers for this years tournament.

Entry fee for the tournament is $200 per Club and that includes curating, ground hire, umpires, new cricket balls and contributes to the prize money. There will also be donation tins available for the McGrath Foundation.

Any Clubs wishing to participate in the tournament are encouraged to contact the Bonbeach Tangy Cricket Club ASAP on the following : secretary@bonbeachtangycc.org.au or alternatively, call Mick Hogan on : 0403 840 740.

Deadlines for entries are Wednesday the 11th of January.
