Gary and his wife run the club, they are there from 7:30am on a Saturday and most evenings, It's got a bit much for him, the enjoyment starts to wane with the added pressure of captaincy.
Our chairman is the treasurer, secretary, head coach, coaches the 16's and either scores or umpires the womens, he's buggered by Christmas every year and can't wait for the season to end.

Exactly, Just had too many things going on and wanted focus on the cricket that he could play without the worry of captaincy

Untrue, Dantonio is an important part of our team as he has the ability to bowl very well and hold up an end whilst in bat. This guy can play and hence the captains role.

how many times has he made over 20 in grade 1. put him in your b grade and let him make runs. no point having him hold up an end when the rest of you batters just slog.

Also he made over 20 in his last dig! Good form could be just round the corner.
