Proudly brought to you by McQueen Financial Group
It's with great anticipation that we welcome the CMCC community to the 23/24 season. It would be remiss of us not to once again acknowledge the contribution to the club of our immediate past president Peter Warner. He will be formally recognised in coming weeks. The commencement of a new season always brings great hope, but with a rejuvenated list and a number of new faces in both the playing and coaching ranks , there is a genuine sense of optimism that the club across all grades has the capacity to make material strides this campaign. Playing group We have added a number of new high quality recruits for season 23/24 who will play in our Senior XI 's including Shorye Chopra (Kingston Hawthorn), Shantanu Bhaiya (Albury), Artharv Deshpande (Casey-South-Melbourne), Coby Edmonstone (WA Premier Cricket), Alex Ridley (Wellington, NZ), Tim Scott (Geelong), Will Troy (Kew), Henry Walsh (Wellington, NZ).
We have also added further depth across the grades with an influx of new talented younger players from the local area, our Dowling team of last year and our Academy. It is pleasing to see so many local talented younger players choosing to play at the Magpies this season. Coaching Group We have continued to invest in coaching, building a high quality team around David Alleyne who will again be our Head Coach. Dave will be supported by: Shaun Prescott - Senior Assistant Coach Stuart Cann - Assistant Coach and Captain of the Third XI Paul Jackson - Assistant Coach (Spin Bowling) Matt Grose - Academy/ Dowling / U/18 Coach & Bowling coach Anthony Stubbs - Assistant Coach - Fast Bowling Chris Thewlis - Assistant Coach - Batting Captains Congratulations to our Captains who were announced last night at our Seasons Launch: First XI Captain - Shorye Chopra, supported by VC's Liam Fitzpatrick & Will Walker Second XI Captain - Akshay Kodoth Third XI Captain - Stuart Cann Fourth XI Captain - Robert Capstick Academy and Dowling After a rigorous selection process over recent months, Shaun Prescott, Matt Grose and Mark Dwyer have selected a talented squad of 15 U18 Academy, and 13 U16 Dowling Shield players.
