Peter Ferguson, Western Suburbs Player #423, passed away on Saturday, September 28th, at the same time that Wests were hosting a T20 double header at Peter’s beloved Pratten Park.

Ferguson made his debut in the Firsts on December 3, 1967, at the age of seventeen. He may have made the Firsts earlier, but the club deliberately didn't want to rush his promotion.

The exciting young left arm wrist spinner, could sharply turn his leggies and he complimented this talent as a lively all round cricketer . At age 11, Peter played his first games in Wests Under 16’s. In 1964-65 he took 123 wickets for the club; 43 in the Saturday Under 16’s competition, 18 in the A.W. Green Shield, two in Poidevin-Gray and 60 in Fourth Grade.

Julia Coote, Sutherland's long-standing first grade scorer, passed away on Thursday morning. Club historian Tom Iceton posted this obituary on the Sutherland website last night:

It is with a very heavy heart that I write these words from the other side of the world. It is my very sad duty to advise that Julia Coote passed away peacefully this morning after a battle with cancer. It is now over 10 months since we were advised of Jules’ diagnosis, which we passed on to the SDCC community at that time. Jules carried on her life over the last 10 months with a stoic attitude and cheerful disposition, accepting of her fate but not consumed by it.

The UTS North Sydney Bears got their season underway this past weekend with two wins in the Kingsgrove Sports T20 Cup, while PGs were defeated in the first match of their title defence, but what does the season have in store for the Bears and where are they looking to improve on last season?

The Bears finished 10th on the Club Championship last season, a solid result but disappointing after a strong start, with two grades missing out on finals on the final day of the regular season. So a higher positioning and several teams playing finals cricket are both being targeted this time around. Nic Bills has been appointed as Club Coach, assisted by Angelo Joseph, Liam Whitaker and Tim Reynolds, and several new players have seamlessly integrated into the squad following trials in late July.
