Recruiting News
The committee would like to announce the recruiting of Scott Phillips
who is returning to come back home to Long Island. This is a fantastic
recruit given his ability with bat, ball & fielding highlighted
by winning the district medal last year which we believe will put us
back into the finals fold after missing out for the first time in 6
years. Welcome back Scotty.
We’d also like to announce the reappointment of Andrew Tweddle
as Captain & Justin Bridgeman as Coach of Long Island for the 2013-14
season.
Both fantastic reappointments and we look forward to them continuing
in their roles with the club.

Captaincy
As a result of recent discussions with Michael Burke, he has decided
due to extra family
commitments & the need of a decent break between football and cricket,
that he will step down as Captain of the First XI this year and play
from around Round 3
onwards. He will become the Vice Captain.
With this decision, we’d like to announce the Captain of the First
XI for the upcoming season is
Andrew Tweddle.
Tweeds has recently joined the club and brings fantastic experience
and a new direction for the
Firsts and we look forward to what he has to offer.
We’ve added some recruits over the winter and you’ll see
some new and old faces at training
and our depth through the grades will certainly be better for it.
