This season's domestic Twenty20 Competition is to be known as "The Sandown Sixes Twenty20 Competition" due to sponsorship gained from the Sandown Greyhound Racing Club, for which we are thankful.
16 of the 18 applicant clubs have been invited to enter teams in the competition which will be played as follows -
Preliminary Matches
Tuesday 11th November - Parkfield v St Mary's @ Parkfield Reserve, Narre North v Hallam Kalora Park @ Narre Warren North Reserve, HSD v Cranbourne @ Reedy Reserve, Fountain Gate v Narre Warren @ Max Pawsey Reserve, Buckley Ridges v Doveton @ Park Oval & Dandenong West v Mordialloc @ Greaves Reserve
Tuesday 18th November - Berwick v Maranatha Methodist @ Arch Brown Reserve & Springvale South v St Brigid's St Louis @ Bondi Oval No 4 (Matches not played on 11/11 due to regional Twenty20 commitments for Berwick & Springvale South)
Quarter-finals on Tuesday 2nd December between eight preliminary match winners
Semi-finals on Tuesday 20th January between four quarter-final winners
Grand final on Wednesday 4th February between two semi-final winners
Prize money consists of $800.00 for first & $400.00 for second.
This season there is a change of rules whereby clubs can wear pants & pads in club colours (as well as club shirts) providing all team members comply. This initiative was put forward by Berwick and if successful, may be introduced from next season for all one-day matches.
Competing clubs should ensure that they are familiar with the rules & format of the competition, especially those relating to information being entered onto My Cricket.
I have only been around the traps for a little while but i can see what a massive positive for our club to play Berwick. The build up will be huge and hey i even give us a a chance, need alot to go our way tho to be said. You should bowl spin to Disco Alex i here he has been known to miss a straight one, what a fun match it will be and atleast we play on a good deck.
