Season Resumes
The Wobbler#wccredcaps THE ONLY PLACE TO GET ALL THE REDCAP NEWS Est.1942/43
Issue No. 3 – 2018/19
As we wobble our way into the new year,
there is much to report both on and off the
field. Senior cricket has re commenced while
the junior teams begin this weekend.
Firstly, congratulations to a number of our
underage players who have been participating
in Victorian Cricket pathways competitions in
recent weeks.
Lucas Argall, Ben Evans, Tristan Maple, Kento
Dobell, Daniel Cassidy & Harry Carlyon have
each represented themselves, their families,
and our club exceptionally well. These lads,
together with their parents have committed
considerable time to being involved at this
level of competition and the club
acknowledges your efforts.
CURRENT LADDER POSITIONS – With 3
matches remaining, each of our senior teams
have the opportunity to play in the finals.
Despite defeating the top side last week, the
1st XI are in fifth position and need to keep
winning.
Our 2nd XI is well placed in 4th position [top six
teams play finals].This very young team is
playing exceptionally well under the guidance
of Justin Howlett. Our three 3rd XI teams are
well poised to make the top six. At present the
‘Red’ and ‘White’ teams are inside the ‘six’
while the ‘Redcaps’ are just a game outside.
Practice sessions continue to be well attended
and as we push towards the finals, we look
forward to every player striving to do his best.
Prior to Christmas we welcomed new players
to our Senior ranks. To Rob Crowther, Matt
McKerrow, Brett Cleary, Daryl Jarred, Mitch
Colbert and Sarath Sreedharan we trust that
you enjoy your time playing with Wendouree

REDCAFS
RoundFollowing on from the success of our Children and Family
Services (CAFS) Christmas Appeal last year, Natarsha and
her elves hosted another special REDCAFS evening on
Friday 14th December at CE Brown Reserve.
Despite the weather turning nasty and a huge downpour
hitting Ballarat that resulted in all junior games being
cancelled that night, we still had about 70 brave and
charitable souls come along to the club rooms for the event.
The event raised thousands of dollars for CAFS in the form
of donated toys and presents, cash donations and other
items donated to CAFS.

U18 Female National ChampionshipsBallarat recently hosted the Australian Female Under
18 Championships and our club made a significant
contribution to this event. Our home ground hosted 3
‘pool’ games and a final.
Special thanks must go to Tim Argall, Darren Woodyatt
& Tex Perkins and the group of volunteers who catered
and assisted with the day to day running of the
matches.
A big thank you also to the following players & juniors -
Stephen Segrave, Tom Hannett, Lucas Argall,
Brock Reid, Cam Jenkins & Oscar Wooton for your
efforts across a number of days. Hosting these
championships provides a source of revenue for our
club and allows us to showcase our great facilities to
state level teams and administrators from Cricket
Australia, so the contribution of our volunteers is very
much appreciated.
A huge ‘Thank-you’ to the volunteers who also helped
out with the catering were:
• Williams Family (too many to mention individually!)
• Tony & Lilly Davis
• Matt Smith
• Megan Bourke
• Tania Bentin & Gabby Dwane
• Ellen Jackson
• David Knight

Prior to the Christmas break the club conducted a Goods &
Services Action fundraising event that involved the
auctioning of a considerable variety of donated goods and
services. This event proved very successful and special
thanks is extended to Ivan Pyke & Darren Woodyatt for their
coordination of the event and the many people and
businesses that donated items … together with the club
members, supporters and friends who attended the function.
