Draw
• Apologies for the delay of the draw but it was necessary due to the withdrawal of Stags Blue and
Hibo Green 2nd Grade struggling to make up its numbers.
• The Rod McCabe Cup has been placed on the Draw provisionally for the 7th January. Discussion
was held about the date and it was decided that the date was OK but as the Track power event will
be held at Seiffert that weekend, a different venue is required. Corey Goodwin will report back on
the availability of Wexted Oval.
• The 2nd Grade draw was unable to fit a Bye on the Goulburn Races Ladies Day as requested. This
was discussed and it was recommended that it be discussed amongst the players and for the Clubs
to return next week with their preferences out of 4 options:
o 1. Play on the 5th November as per the draw.
o 2. Defer the match and play on a Sunday.
o 3. Defer the match to Saturday 7th January
o 4. Play it as a T20 match on a Friday afternoon.
Rules
• Andy Hopkins requested that in future an Umpire be asked to take part in any Rules subcommittee.
• Score books & rule books have gone to the printers and we are awaiting their completion. It is
believed they will be completed in time for Saturday but recommended that a spare scorebook be
made available.

General Meeting 4/10/2016
A page from the 2016 Well Played Publication relating to the 30/30/30 rule was handed out to the
Clubs and discussed. It was suggested that the page be attached to their scorebooks for reference
when lightning was present.
Grounds
• The Grange will be unavailable round 1 due to wet weather. Round 1 match will be moved to
Todkill Park. Irrigation work will occur after the Christmas break but is not expected to have any
major impact on the ground.
• Wexted will be unavailable until further notice due to the wet weather saturating the outfield and
preventing vehicle access onto the ground. An estimated time frame of 2-3 weeks was given.
• Trinity No 2 is currently fine despite the amount of rain received.
• The Goal Posts at North Park have not been removed.
• Area surrounding the pitch at Carr Confoy 1 has been disturbed during the process of removing the
winter covering.
• The pitch at Carr Confoy 2 requires marking. Preparations have been made to start marking the
pitches this week.
Miscellaneous
• The Goulburn Sporting Hall of Fame is holding it Gala Dinner on the 22nd October, 6pm at the
Soldiers Club. With the amount of money and support the Seiffert Oval Pavilion is receiving from
Council( it has been estimated as being a $1 million building), it would be wise to return that
support for Council functions; so the Association intends to purchase a table (seats 10) at the
Dinner. The cost will be $65 per head and the call was put out for assistance in filling the table. It
was noted that this will be held on the same weekend as the Burns Cup and as such will eliminate
those involved with the Rep team from attending. Second Grade was asked to step up and show its
support.
• Marty Travers paid the $77 fees owed as part of the folded Gordon Club and is now cleared to play
in the GDCA Competition.
• Thanks to Platon Antony Autos for their $500 sponsorship of the GDCA Competition for
2016/2017. You can find them in Fenwick Crescent, Goulburn.
