The Trinity Old Scholars Cricket Club entered the Adelaide Turf Association in 2008/09, when old scholars Robert Thomas and Brad Wilkinson established a team in the limited overs competition. It was an extremely tough season where we battled the pressures of finding players, volunteers and facilities. However, it was the start of our journey as a club, and the start of something we now know to be very special. The club played in its first final in 2008/2009 losing the semi-final to Hope Valley. This was the start of a successful era for our club, winning the next four consecutive premierships. In 2009/10 Tim Viner-Smith was appointed as captain, winning the club's first flag in C1 grade that season. Alistair Forwood was then appointed as our head coach (2010/11) and, together, he and Viner-Smith brought the club much success, collecting premierships in 2010/11 and 2011/12. In this period, our B grade was introduced into the limited overs competition (2009/10) and our club was growing at a rapid rate. In 2010/11, the B grade won its first flag, captained by Ben Johnson. Keith Hooker had taken over the coaching reins in 2012/13, while in 2013/14 we introduced a C grade to the limited overs competition (playing finals in each of its seasons). That season also saw the B grade win another premiership. Tim Viner-Smith captained the club until the 2015/16 season, when he headed overseas for several years and was replaced in that role by Alex Cotter. Eythan Barraclough has been appointed as the Mens A Grade captain with Alistair Forwood our Club Head Coach. Grady Hudd (Mens B Grade), Matthew Knox ( Mens C Grade) and Brooke Moreland (Womens A Grade) form the remainder of the leadership group for 2017/18. Currently, the club operates three teams with the ambition of running a fourth side, as well as entering women's cricket. Our home ground is Waldeck Oval, while we also play at the Main Oval, where we have turf training facilities located nearby, and at Gawler River. We are also one of the only Adelaide Turf Cricket Association clubs to have its own indoor facility, which has four carpeted pitches, along with a bowling machine. Our modern, well-equipped clubrooms were opened in the winter of 2017 and have a fully licensed bar and a spacious entertainment area. As a club, we were a significant financial contributor to the Pavilion, a fact of which we are very proud. We look forward to the 2017/18 season and being able to use this facility for the first time. We have a specialised coaching and administration structure in place to ensure we are continuing to strive for excellence both on and off the ground. This handbook will provide you with all the information to enable you to become the best you can be, both as a player and as a club member.
