Message for all

The GCA has advised SABCC that we will be relegated to Division 4. As much as this is disappointing, it is a chance to rebuild and just like the Waurn Ponds CC get back into Division 3 quickly. Let's ensure we as players, supporters and committee build into the future. That starts by getting to the AGM on Tuesday at 7 pm at Breakwater.

Regards

Committee

Message from the committee

The GCA sent out the rankings for this season, which unfortunately has SABCC sitting in the relegation spot. At this time the GCA has not notified us of our position for next season. Once we are notified we will let everyone know.

Regards

Committee
