- G Grade - Scott Dowsett
- H Grade - Greg O'Day
The Club Senior Coach and Selection Captain is Craig Bowden. If you are not available for any game or not sure if or where you are playing please contact your captain. SELECTIONS
The main criterion for selection is consistent performance on match day. Although this is the main criteria, other factors will be taken in to consideration such as:
- Spirit of the Game – How a player conducts himself on the field whilst representing the club.
- Training – Full training including fielding drills and fitness work twice a week for A & C Grades and at least once a week for other grades, however they are encouraged to train twice a week. Players must let their Captain or Chairman of selectors know in advance if they cannot make training.
- Availability - If unable to commit to the majority of the season in a side then players will be considered for lower grades.
- Financial status - A financial player will be picked ahead of a non-financial player. If payment arrangement is made with the President or Treasurer, that player will be considered financial.
- Involvement - Support for the club will also be taken into consideration. This includes staying back at the club Thursday and Saturday nights, attending club functions, helping when grade rostered on for teas, etc
TRAINING
Training is held at the Wanneroo Showgrounds on Tuesday and Thursday nights from 4.45pm. Suitable attire is required at training, consisting of club or predominantly white shirt or jumper with appropriate footwear. Jeans or work boots are not acceptable.
