Matt Smith staying at Woodville, Hancock confirmed at Northern Districts, and maybe Tyler Green coaching Southern Districts...

League AGM on thursday night I wonder if anything new will be tabled.

Love a bit of ball.

Will be going out when I'm home to watch the Eagles...

Love the "ting" noise when bat hits ball.

Played a fist full of winter ball games but missed the footy too much so gave that away. Nothing too serious in the winter ball anyway.

Mrs.Boon is now on the PADBC commitee so expect to be involved a little more.

Junior Boon playing U17s and I'll have a hit with him in the Div 7 North, unless he plays a higher level of seniors.

When does summer season kick off?

LOL, we play on the main diamond. We're the pre-game entertainment for the odd Divvy 1 game.

Fond memories of the main diamond, ran (?) and in-field home run last year. Well, they said it was a triple with an error, but I know the truth.

The AGM was an interesting night last night, there are a few changes happening in the league, juniors now 13,15,17,19's and there is a committee formed headed by former bay pitcher thompson to take the league into the future. They said they wanted to expand the number of A Grade teams but at this stage the depth isnt there to do that. There will be a new criteria to play A Grade which will be rolled out probably 2014/15 season. so there may be a 10 team Div 1 competition possibly. MLB have backed the ABL for another 5 years also which can only be a good thing. All in all a record timed AGM by Benno for his first one in the chair going for 36 minutes.

Also Trent Hancock has left Henley and Grange for the Northern Districts Head Job, apparently for a hefty offer...

You boys are doing a marvellous job mickey, looks fantastic. Was there on the weekend for a look, well done lads.

Will be the premier playing suface in SA baseball come October.

you would think with all the money kensignton have, that their ground would be better, must just spend it on coaches and players????

they are trying to make it better but the council wont let them, instead of northern districts paying you 10k to coach perhaps they could have bought a decent side, well they will probably beat Henley and Grange still...

anyone got any trial games coming up? kensington have east torrens and golden grove...

Us at port are playing West Torrens in a trial. not sure if any other are arranged?
