Dear PAOCCC Community,

I am pleased to advise that the PAOCCC Annual General Meeting will be held on Friday, 15 August 2025, at The Seven Stars Hotel, commencing at 6:30pm.

The AGM is a vital event in the life of the Club, providing members with an opportunity to reflect on the past year, review the Club's financial position, and help shape the direction of the upcoming season. It is also a great chance to reconnect with fellow members and supporters ahead of what promises to be another exciting year.

We are now calling for nominations for the Committee of Management. If you are passionate about the Club and interested in contributing to its ongoing success, we encourage you to consider nominating.

Please also feel free to request a copy of the agenda, previous minutes, or financial statements by contacting us via email at paoccc1932@gmail.com. Nominations and requests should be submitted to the same address.

We look forward to seeing as many of you there as possible - your presence and input are highly valued and appreciated.

Warm regards,

Ben Lobban

Secretary
Prince Alfred Old Collegians Cricket Club

As a fellow cricket club, we know just how vital access to turf wickets is for the development, enjoyment, and integrity of our sport. That’s why we’re standing in full support of Ingle Farm District Cricket Club as they face the threat of losing these crucial facilities.

We urge the entire Adelaide Turf Cricket Association - ATCA to recognise the importance of preserving access to turf wickets — not just for Ingle Farm, but for the future of community cricket in South Australia.

Sam Turner has informed the PAOCCC committee that he will be stepping down as head coach due to health reasons. The committee and the entire PAOCCC community would like to express our deepest gratitude for his unwavering dedication and leadership over the past two seasons.

Sam first took on the role of coach 20 years ago, guiding the club for four seasons and leading us from A2 to A1, where we remained for an incredible 17 years. When we found ourselves back in A2, Sam returned without hesitation, once again steering us straight back to A1—a testament to his coaching expertise and passion. Despite the challenges of this past season, his influence has ensured our continued place in the competition.

Sam’s impact on our club is immeasurable, and his legacy is undeniable. We wish him all the very best and hope to see him, Leanne, Sammy, and James around the club for many years to come.
