Northbridge Cricket Club is Recruiting New Players

Have you:

• Stepped away from grade cricket but still feel the urge to get back out there?
• Taken a break from cricket and miss playing with your mates?
• Just finished school and unsure what’s next for your cricketing journey?
• Over 40 and keen for a weekend hit on turf?
• Simply looking for some fun, fitness, and camaraderie with a great group?

We’re Northbridge Cricket Club, entering our 105th season, and we’re on the lookout for new players! Whether you're a seasoned player or a beginner, we have a spot for you in one of our 5 teams playing in the Northern Cricket Union competition—the strongest community cricket competition outside Premier/Grade and Shires cricket in Sydney.

With 2 turf teams and 3 astro-turf teams (4th Grade, 6th Grade, and D One Day), we welcome cricketers of all skill levels, from casual players to local legends. We’re also proud to field a team in the Sydney Over 40’s Masters competition, played on some of the best turf grounds in Sydney on alternate weekends.

But more than just cricket, we’re looking for good people to enjoy our Saturdays (and occasionally Saturday evenings!) with. We understand that life is busy, and you may not want to commit to playing every week—no worries, we can work with that! Whether you’re after a casual hit or something more serious, we’ll make cricket work for you.

If you’re keen to join or just want to chat about the club, the game, or even meet for a beer at our sponsor pub, North Sydney Hotel, drop us a message on Facebook, email us at executive@northbridgecricketclub.org, or register here:

The late great Richie Benaud said, ‘Being a Captain is 90 per cent luck and 10 per cent hard work.’ And we know that the harder you work the luckier you get in sport. And so on a wintery day last year I had the luck of being asked to Captain 4th Grade for the upcoming season.

To begin, I’ll start with a few thank you’s.

Firstly, a big thank you to Peter Speirs or Speirsy as he’s known by most. He took the reins at the beginning of the season while I nursed an injury for a few rounds. Very grateful for his willingness to do this. But also, very thankful for his sage advice and sense checking before, during and after matches throughout the season. He has an invaluable experience that I was very grateful to be able to tap into.

Overall it was a positive step forward from the 1s squad this season in comparison to the previous couple of seasons. With largely the same squad leading into the season plus a few new additions in the way of James Dallaway, overseas recruit Johny Hardman and the returning Simon Read adding extra quality to the side.

Kicking the season off with a narrow loss to Warringah despite some positive performances including Sarmad’s destructive 68 off 38 and Dan Miles 44* we just ran out of wickets falling short. The first victory came in comprehensive style against Pennant Hills, Luke Watson setting the foundations with 73, allowing other batters to play freely setting the game up for day 2. The bowling unit came out firing bundling Penno out for 39 with Dan Miles taking 5 fa 4 off 6 overs. Pushing for outright all the way to the end of the day but finishing 2 wickets short.
