Steve Garrett and Bryce Garrett awarded Life Membership of Newcastle City Cricket Club
Newcastle City Cricket Club | July 26, 2024
At Newcastle City Cricket Club 2024 Annual General Meeting, it was put forward by our Secretary, Penny O'Shea, that our long-serving president, Steve Garrett be awarded Life Membership. We are pleased to say that this motion was unanimously passed.
In Penny's nomination, she quoted Steve's "unwavering commitment and vision" as key factors in our successes since taking on the presidency in 2017.
Under Steve's leadership, we have seen remarkable growth and positive changes. His strategic planning, inclusive approach, and ability to inspire others have been instrumental in our successes. This includes the continued development of our Women’s program and the ‘One Club’ policy that has seen us work closely with our Juniors. Steve's dedication goes beyond mere duty; he has embodied the spirit and values of our club, always putting our mission and members first. In addition to that, his work obtaining and maintaining sponsorship for the club and connections to the community have been outstanding.
Please join us in congratulating our new Life Member, Steve Garrett.
Along with Steve's nomination, it was put forward by our Treasurer, Adrian Mannel, that our Senior Vice President Bryce Garrett also be awarded a Life Membership. This motion was also passed unanimously.
Adrian noted the time he picked Bryce up from a Juniors' game at Myamblah Crescent to take him to his first Seniors game over 15 years ago.
Bryce has been part of the City club for well over 20 years now and has played all the way through the junior and senior ranks. He has done it all with the bat, ball and in the field and is an integral part of the club both on the field and off the field. He has been involved in the committee side of the club for over 10 years now and has been in the role of the Senior Vice President since 2018. He is always looking at ways to improve the experience of the club members and is a big reason for the great club culture City has.
The work Bryce has done in the digital, social media and organising space has been immense. Whether it be taking photos at games, sorting social media posts to promote the club in various ways or ensuring the presentation nights run smoothly he has been a great asset for City. There's plenty more too of course but he will put his hand up to help when required and puts in countless hours which has been key in the club's success and growth in recent years in particular.
Join us in congratulating our newest Life Member, Bryce Garrett.
