OUR NIGHT OF NIGHTS - MOONEE
VALLEY PRESENTATION 2023
Moonee Valley players, partners and supporters gathered at the Moonee Ponds Club on April 16 for our gala event of the season, the 2022/23 Presentation Night. It was a night full of recognition, achievement and surprises, with trophies and announcements. The Moonee Valley Cricket Club's most prestigious honor, the Lindsay Jones Best Clubperson award, was jointly presented to Adele and Charlie Walker. At right: Proudly holding their Lindsay Jones Best Clubperson plaques - Adele and Charlie Walker. Salman Afridi was announced our 2022/23 Club Champion, which was no surprise given his stellar season in the Firsts. The Sean O'Kane Award, for the best player in all other grades, was taken out by Chand Shrestha, who had a great season with bat, ball and in the field and capped it off with the Fourth Eleven premiership. The Lindsay Jones award was a record-extending fifth for club president Charlie Walker, but the honor was really about wife Adele, and her support for Moonee Valley in opening their home to host overseas players over more than a decade - with 2022/23 house guests being our Pakistan first class players Wasim Abbas and Salman Afridi. Life Memberships were awarded to Dean Lawson, Pat Taylor and Jack Newman. First Eleven keeper Suraj Weerasinghe was judged the club's best Wicketkeeper for 2022/23, and Suraj also took out the Coach's Award for most improved - when he was first at Moonee Valley in 2019/20 he had a batting average of 4.0 in the Firsts. This year he was a key top order bat with 376 runs @ 37.6. ****Watch this space for more photos and info from the night - page still under construction. HERE are all the award winners
