G'day everyone. We've just had our club's AGM and have a new social and fundraising committee. We're looking for some helpful ideas from people who've had experience running the social side of the club before, and can help us kick start our year. Any CONSTRUCTIVE feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Where are you located at? Most of the fundraising events are quite specific to the location. we organize a tennis ball tournament, volunteer in local festivals and the like. Perhaps if you have decent enough players, you can do one-week camp for youngsters too

Hi Shrek. We're located in Albury/ Wodonga region, on the NSW and Vic borders. We've had casserole nights, Black tie balls and formal functions before, but we're looking for some different ideas to get people who wouldn't normally attend our functions to come along.

Such events seem formal and high-brow to me :) Perhaps you could try a fun fair- competition of who hits the stumps maximum times from a given distance? who can tonk the ball farthest? If you can get a speed gun, who bowls fastest etc.
That aside, fun games like dunk the clown are also tangentially related to cricketing skills. have a bunch try to stop boundaries or take catches. All fun events, but when you introduce competition into it, I'm sure quite a few groups would try to out do each other.
