G'day guys, along with fellow forumites Smac and Dissident I have been working for the past year on a website which has now been launched.

Wicket to Wicket is grassroots cricket's home turf. It's a place for cricketers to share their cricketing story - whether it be success, disaster, funding or telling us about the salt of the earth volunteer that keeps your club running.

We hope to bring you as much news as we can from grassroots cricket across the state.

It is also your site, please have a look and send us any stories or news about your club, so we can share it with the rest of the state.

The site is http://www.wickettowicket.com.au

Thanks to SAFooty for its support in getting this site up and running.

If you are going to have teasers to news stories... i.e. from the messenger and advertiser you need to actually hyperlink to the full article.

New story: Lachy McAuliffe discusses the season ahead in Port Pirie. Not a strictly serious assesment but many valid points.

Lower Gilbert cricket:

Competition closes but where is the cup?

“It was last seen at the Owen Hotel, under the pool table.”

Nice that a story we discovered has been followed elsewhere. We're pretty stoked about that. It's a great yarn!
