We expect to again field seven senior teams - the top two in VTCA, the next two turf teams in Mercantile and three teams in the North West Metro Cricket Association.The Club is keen to get expressions of interest for skippers from the Seconds through to the Sevenths, so that we can start planning for the season ahead. Players wishing to be considered for captain jobs should contact Moonee Valley secretary Adam Patchell at [email protected] ![]() Moonee Valley appoints new senior coach The Moonee Valley Cricket Club Committee is pleased to announce the appointment of Mark Gauci as our new senior coach.
Mark's appointment was confirmed on May 16, and follows a detailed and impressive presentation on a vision of how he would lead our club forward.
Mark Gauci (right) is a Life Member of our Club, our most recent First Eleven premiership captain and more recently, captain of our Premiership-winning Sixth Eleven team in 2014/15.
Mark is now working on a pre-season training plan, and has pencilled in a program of at least two practice matches.
We offer our best wishes and sincere thanks to Rex Bennett, who coached Moonee Valley for the past two seasons - a period which saw the Valleys win three flags. OUR WINTER WARRIORSMoonee Valley is again leading the charge in the winter cricket, with three good wins and a narrow loss to start off the season.
We've built up a strong squad of players under second-year skipper Michael Ozbun, to the extent we're already planning for an expansion the following year. Our Valley team plays out of Fairbairn Park in Ascot Vale, as Ormond Park is not available due to winter sport requirements. We've got a mix of regular Valley summer players and others who join us for the winter season - such as Kern Kapoor, a crafty spinner and solid bat who has been a Valley player right from our first season in the Mid Year Cricket Association in 2013. Here's our Round 1 team: L-R. Back - Ben Thomas, Anthony Cafari, Nate Wolland, Kern Kapoor, Amandeep Singh, Matt Thomas, Michael Ozbun, Jatinder Singh and Mahir Rahman. Front - Gaurav Malhotra and Neil King with Queenie. Main Club contact details: * Charlie Walker - President 0409 237 543; 9370 1802 |
