Secretary’s Report
I would like to present the Association’s Annual Report to all members of the Moore Park South East Cricket Association.
The 2010/2011 season was unfortunately effected by some wet weather both during the Martin Shield representative program and our own semi-final series.
Our Martin Shield team qualified for the quarter-finals but unfortunately went down to Manly and could not repeat the heroics of the previous season.
In the main competition we had a total of 30 teams compete over 5 grades with the Premiership winners being 1st Grade – Souths Juniors; 2nd Grade – Ferns; 3rd Grade – Coogee Bay Hotel Rebels; 4th Grade – La Perouse; 5th Grade – Coogee Bay Hotel Rebels. The Club Championship was taken out for the first time by Kingsford Apaches.
In the Twenty20 competition we had 9 teams compete with the Division 1 Premiers being Souths Juniors and the same club (but different team) won the Division 2 title.
My thanks to our Patron Mr Harry Solomons and Kingsgrove Sports Centre, the South Sydney Junior Rugby League Football Club, Kookaburra, the Kensington War Memorial Club and the Doncaster Hotel for their ongoing support and sponsorship of the Association.
The Association’s financial position is sound, as detailed in the financial pages of this report and I would like to thank Paul Brien for his efforts as Acting Treasurer, taking the duties on top of his various duties as President of the Association.
Finally I would like to thank all fellow Board Members, club delegates, umpires, scorers, volunteers and players who make up the competition and make it a success.
Yours in cricket
David Power
Secretary
President’s Report
Ladies and Gentlemen:
The 2010-2011 season marked the completion of 15 seasons since Moore Park, South Sydney and the Catholic Association joined to form the Moore Park & South East Cricket Association. I am pleased to report that this season saw a strong competition in all grades.
Season 2010-2011 saw 30 teams enter our 5 grade competition. It was a year that saw multiple clubs at the forefront in terms of achieving the ultimate in Premiership and Minor Premiership wins.
The season saw Coogee Bay Rebels field four teams and achieve two Premierships and a Minor Premiership. South’s Juniors regained the first grade title as well as Minor Premiership and on top of that won both Divisions of the 20/20 competition. Not to forget the Kingsford Apaches who fielded three teams and won the Club Championship as well as being minor premiers in both second and fifth grade. Well done to all involved with these three well run clubs. The time spent in organizing and running the clubs certainly paid off for all concerned in 2010-2011 season
My congratulations also to the Ferns who at last, after so many close calls, in recent years have won a Premiership, well done Ferns whom I am sure will strive to ensure it won’t be a long time between drinks for their next title. Well done also to La Perouse who fielded a side blended with youth and experience to win the 5TH Grade Premiership, well done Larpa.
I take this opportunity of also congratulating the many individuals whose achievements are recorded further in this report.
The season did not enjoy the same success on the representative front as was the case in 2009-2010.We did mange a victory over Northern Suburbs but our Martin Shield campaign was hampered with the weather although we managed to get to the quarter finals. Bathurst visited us in Season 2010-2011 and despite a great game unfortunately “The Plank” has returned to Bathurst.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of those “behind the scenes” personnel involved in the rep season. Manager Bill Glacken, our scorers Gary & Maria Fulford whom without their expertise in scoring we simply wouldn’t know what the result was…..thank you both .well done. Our selectors headed by Chairman John Chalmers, our Captain Hippo who not only led on the field but I know was involved in many ways off the field, my personal thanks.
Once again Dave “20/20” Power put together a 20/20 Sunday competition which is now in its fifth year. For the first time a club won both divisions, well done South’s Juniors. My thanks to Dave for his continued commitment to this competition which is growing every year.
For an association to be successful, it needs support. I would like to thank a number of people for there support in season 2010-2011-:
Noel Moig Agencies for the KOOKABURRA SPONSORSHIP. We are in the second year of a three year agreement with Kookaburra .This sponsorship is used directly to assist in the ever increasing ground fees set by the landlords of our grounds. I am pleased to report this year saw only minor fee increase due directly to the monies from this sponsorship. My thanks to both Noel Moig and Cameron Eves of Noel Moig Agencies and the team at Kookaburra for there on going support.
Mr. Harry Solomon’s, Managing Director Kingsgrove Sports. Harry is not only our Patron but a long time supporter of park cricket in the South Sydney area having not only played many games in the former South Sydney Cricket Association but also represented that Association. Harry has a true understanding of Association cricket and what it takes to be a successful association and our success is helped by his support both at club and Association level. I thank Harry and the team at Kingsgrove Sports for there support and I urge all clubs to visit Kingsgrove Sports for all your teams and individual cricket requirements.
South Sydney Juniors Club. Not only do we get a great deal for our presentation evening but the club also financially contributes to ground costs each year. To the Board of Souths Juniors my thanks for your continued support and the Association looks forward to continuing our relationship for many years to come.
Kensington War Memorial RSL. Thank you to the Board for the use of the club for delegates and Board meetings. The club has become our base for meetings and we are truly grateful to be allowed the use of the various meeting rooms. Thank you also for the trophy cabinet that houses our perpetual trophies.
Centennial Park Trust, Botany Council, Randwick Council. Our thanks to these organisations and there staff who ensure our grounds are maintained each week.
Doncaster Hotel. The Doncaster Hotel is now in its third year as a sponsor of our representative sides. My thanks to Michael Paterson and the team at the Doncaster Hotel for their continued support. I would urge all members to try the bistro at the Donny…….the food is fabulous and don’t forget to try your hand at trivia on trivia night ………thanks again to the DONNY.
Umpires. My thanks to the umpires who each Saturday control our fixtures. Our numbers have fallen in the past few seasons; however John Chalmers is as always busy recruiting from other Associations. My thanks to John for his persistence in ensuring we have the necessary umpires each week. I would also encourage any person who wishes to be an umpire to contact John. Thanks again to our umpires.
MPSECA BOARD- The Board this year was smaller than previous years with the positions of Treasurer and Secretary not filled at the AGM and despite numerous requests at delegate meetings no person nominated throughout the season. I thank those who were on the Board for there support and untiring contribution as volunteers to make this Association the success it is.
I would like to particularly thank our Vice President, Dave Power who again stepped up this year to not only fulfil his role as a Vice President but also the role of Secretary as well as run 20/20 etc…..well done Dave your efforts are appreciated.
I would encourage members to seriously consider offering your time to assist in running your Association and thereby ensure the future of the Association.
To all players and members of the association. My thanks for your support for without our members we do not have this great association.
Season 2010-2011 has concluded and as we enter a new season I assure you all the Association will continue to promote cricket in our area and will endeavour to provide to our members facilities that allow you all to enjoy our sport of cricket
I look forward to seeing you all on the park in 2011-2012………….again my thanks for your continued support, I commend this report to the members.
Paul Brien- President

Our bowlers bowled a steady line that kept us in the game until the but that all important break through didn’t come and The Shires held out to win by 2 wickets.
