England here I come.

This is an unpaid ad but thought a young player in our club might be interested in making further inquiries.  A note of warning though, one should always do their homework and investigate fully before committing.

 My name is Robert Humphries, Director of World Sports Xchange Limited, an Australian-based and managed Cricket Agency specialising in placing players with UK & European clubs.

 In our 5 years of operation we have placed over 350 players with clubs in the UK, Holland & Ireland. 210 of those in the last 2 Australian winters alone.
We have a huge demand for Australian players of all standards, whether it be a player on the cusp of First Class Cricket or a 4th Grade player that just wants to experience playing in the UK, we will help anyone that is keen to go!
Without the support of clubs around Australia, we cannot fill the vacancies we have in the UK for 2013, with approximately 110 clubs seeking players immediately from us.
The vast majority of our clubs will provide free accommodation for the player, with assistance to find employment and coaching income. In many cases, our clients receive 100% reimbursement for the cost of their flights and many also receive a weekly retainer for playing, this is dependent on each individual’s ability of course.
I encourage you to please circulate this throughout your clubs and give all of your club members the opportunity to play abroad, as it is a wonderful experience and with the Ashes on, what a time to be in the UK!
 Kindest Regards

City prides itself on being a true club, not 4 individual teams. We play for the club not for a specific team or grade, throughout the season there will be movement of players within the grades both up and down but always playing for City, that’s what being a part of a club is all about. Best of luck to everyone for the weekend matches.
GOOOOOOO come Saturday night may the town ring out with the words of city city city CITY

A day to remember

I am always thinking of cricket. Eventually, my exasperated wife said, "You think nothing but cricket. I bet you don't even remember the day our first child was born."
"Of course I do," I said with pride. "How could I forget that day, It was the day Steve Waugh scored his 100 not out on the final ball of the day's play against the poms at the SCG."
GOOOOOOO CITY

A Englishman a rock for City

Our own Scott de WEymarn received the 3 First Grade Best & Fairest points after his match winning 70 runs from 257 balls. He showed grit and concentration in his 80 overs spent at the crease.  GOOOOOOOO there is no better feeling when you achieve what you set out to do,  CITY

It’s on again.

That’s right unless it's raining, City will be holding a fielding session today Tuesday from 5.30 till 6.30 at No 1 oval. All are welcome to attend. Bring your running shoes, your City training singlet, a hat and a drink of water.
GOOOOOOOO train hard, play hard CITY

A chanceless inning

 Anthony Fitzgerald  was 4 th Grade's man of match.  Anthony’s  138 runs (retired) the week before which was the clubs first century for the season, was instrumental  in setting West  a score they could not reach. A great achievement Anthony.
GOOOOOOO there is still some runs in those old legs yet CITY

The BIG boys have a victory.

The victorious 1st grade team celebrated their first win of the season on Saturday. After showing some good form in the first two one-dayers of the season and with some hard work being shown at training, our 1st Grade team showed grit and determination with the bat to cruise to victory scoring 216 run off 85 overs. Well deserved.
GOOOOOOOO Phil  I believe that's another carton of refreshments CITY
