Maiden Gully Marist Cricket Club has joined the Castlemaine District Cricket Association (CDCA) senior competitions this summer and enjoyed their first matches as the season opened last Saturday, October 31.
Maiden Gully Marist Cricket Club president Neil Byers told theĀ MailĀ it was an historic day for the club playing their first official match on their brand new turf wicket with their A Grade side hosting Newstead.
“We have been playing hard wicket in the Emu Valley Cricket Association for more than 40 years but decided to make the move to turf and join the CDCA,” he said.
Mr Byers said that the competition will provide a great new opportunity and challenge for the club’s A Grade, A Reserve, B Grade and Women’s sides. See the Mail for the full story.
