<\/p>\nMOREE District Cricket Association is dusting off the wickets and padding up for another big season at Ron Harborne Ovals.<\/p>\n
The 2025-2026 cricket season will get underway on Saturday, October 18, but there is an important stand-alone day one week before the launch.<\/p>\n
Moree club president, Grady Sinclair, said Rowdo\u2019s Day will be held on Saturday, October 11 to start the new season and honour former club president and trailblazer Chris Rowden, who tragically passed away two weeks before Christmas in 2023.<\/p>\n
\u201cRowdo\u2019s Day is an eight-over, eight-a-side, round-robin competition,\u201d Sinclair said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe whole purpose of Rowdo\u2019s Day is it inclusiveness \u2013 a day to be enjoyed by everyone.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhether people are cricketers or not, they are welcome to come along and be involved in the day. \u201cChris was all about inclusion and enjoying cricket, so I think by us organising and continuing his legacy, we\u2019re pushing senior cricket in the right direction,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Rowdo Day will include a club barbecue and presentation of the Chris Rowden Shield to the winning team.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe start time for play is yet be confirmed, but most likely will be 1pm,\u201d Sinclair said.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The 2025-2026 Moree senior cricket season will get underway on Saturday, October 18.<\/p>\n
Sinclair said the club will be back the following week \u2013 Saturday, October 18 \u2013 to bowl the first ball of the new season.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have been working hard in the background, trying to organise our 30-over competition,\u201d Sinclair said.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo far we have three teams confirmed to play, and would really like another team involved.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf there are any senior cricketers out there thinking about playing but are undecided, please get in touch with me.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe comp will most likely run for eight rounds with a grand-final round on December 13,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Moree District Cricket Association AGM will be held Tuesday, September 9 at 6pm at Moree Golf Club.<\/p>\n
