8.0 General Business

8.1 Support for the installation of a cricket pitch on Nippers Oval and associated synthetic pitch cover – Michael Earl

Michael Earl advised that this is a joint proposal from both the Senior and Junior Cricket Clubs and that the junior Cricket Club intend to submit an application to join the new SRAC when it is formed.

A comprehensive booklet about the proposal was provided to the committee members for review and comment.

The committee discussed the practical use, life and replacement costs of the pitch and cover.

The ROM has spoken to the Department of Sport and Recreation and most Shire’s within the South West region have one or more ovals that have a cricket pitch running through the middle of them.

The main concerns were from AFL and Rugby. Jeff Bevan: We can’t vote for it as it won’t be beneficial for us, we want to play on grass however we understand that additional cricket pitches are required. The town is growing quicker than the infrastructure. This is democracy at work and we are only one vote on the committee. We already play on a lesser quality pitch cover in Augusta and the concern is for down the track if the Margaret River pitch is not maintained, the committee members turn over and there is a change of priorities who will be responsible for rectifying or replacing a deteriorating product? Mark Sheath: Rugby would like a written guarantee that they will have a home ground in Margaret River before we vote on it. If Rugby is limited to one pitch the additional load may cause distress. Where do we go if Gloucester Park becomes unplayable due to the demand of the increased fixtures? ROM: Rugby will have a home in Margaret River regardless of the situation. The Western Oval is available as a back up field. Jack Shepherd: We fully support the installation the only worry we have is the wear and tear on the Gloucester Park. This year has been fairly dry and the grass well maintained but if we were to have a really wet winter such as previous years the field would become a mess. Would it be possible to put additional sleeves in the ovals so the fixtures can alternate? Neil Mattinson: All clubs and codes are going to have to get fixtures out as soon as possible and forward them to the ROM so that the Shire can do their best to accommodate everyone.

MOTION/RECOMMENDATION That the Sports and Recreation Advisory Committee support the installation of a cricket pitch on the Nippers Oval and associated synthetic cover. Moved: Michalel Earl Seconded: Gary Gibbon Carried: 12:2 Jack Shepherd & Jeff Bevan voted against the motion

Joint proposal from

Margaret River Hawks Cricket Club

and

Margaret River Junior Cricket Club

to install a new cricket pitch and cover on Nippers Oval

Background The Hawks Cricket Club was established in 1980 with a single A grade side. In 1984/85, a B grade side also entered into the BMRCA competition with immediate success, winning the B grade premiership and a second A grade premiership in our short history. 2001 saw the club change our name to include Margaret River so as to better identify where we are located, and for any new residents to Margaret River to know there was a cricket club they could call their own. A C grade competition was created by the BMRCA in 2008/09, and the Hawks duly entered it’s third side into the competition.

The Hawks have been extremely succesful in their 35 years of competition, with 14 premierships amongst the grades, including 10 in A grade alone, with 4 in a row an association record. This would have to stack up against any sporting club in the Augusta Margaret River Shire.

Our season is held from October until March inclusive, and predominately held on Saturday afternoons. Training is Tuesday and Thursday nights from 5pm. A grade is always scheduled for the western turf wicket, (weather dependant), while the B and C grade is played on the synthetic eastern wicket.

2007/08 saw the Hawks initiate the first T20 competition in the BMRCA. Designed to get people into cricket and for people who could not commit to weekend cricket, this competition is held historically on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday afternoons from November to March, from 5pm. With the continued interest in the sport, this season could see the T20 being played 4 nights a week! This is played on the Western Oval’s eastern pitch, the synthetic pitch.

Junior cricket has been played in the shire for many, many years prior to 1994, but it was around this time a junior side nominated for the BMRJCA. Junior cricket has been increasing steadily and from 70 juniors in 2011/12 to a forecasted 135 juniors this season coming, there has been about a 95% increase in participation in four short years. With a strong sign up for Milo T20 blast, (the Auskick equivalent for cricket), junior cricket looks to be in a great position.

Both senior and junior cricket are expanding as facilities have disappeared, namely our state Primary and Senior High schools. Our proposal to install a hard-wicket at Nippers Oval which will incorporate the latest technology in pitch covers, allowing the continuation of winter sports already being played at this venue. The proposed cover meets all OH&S standards for critical fall, and has been in use with a number of city councils in Perth without incident.

We are mindful of the opposition by some codes of football, however the guarantee of a home ground for rugby at the main oval, (until a permanent home is built) and the literature supporting this type of cover as suitable for the levels of football played on Nippers should not preclude its installation. Sharing our limited resource should be the aim of all sporting clubs, as the more kids we get involved in sport, the better…!

Pros and cons for Nippers Oval Pros

• Cricket is desperate for another synthetic pitch for both training and playing, junior and seniors

o We have been seeking this for the last decade • Cricket is an ever growing sport in the Margaret River area

o 95% increase in junior participation over the last 4 years Believe with the constant push of Milo T20 Blast this will continually

grow o Senior cricket has been constantly increasing by about 5%

With more grounds available, more cricket can be played with more T20 opportunity a major help

• An extra ground for our increasing junior participation rates o Have lost 2 of our 4 synthetic pitches while junior participation increases o 2 x school ovals due to school expansion

• Rubber protective matting has been used in Perth with huge success o Covers critical fall height o Covered by Local Government Insurance Scheme (LGIS) o DSR have recommend similar installations o Senior AFL clubs that play across this have given us support of the product

• Constant usage year round o Currently the ground is only used in winter months except for several events

in summer • Within walking distance from net facilities

o Accessible for training for seniors and juniors alike • Facility in place for future T20 expansion

o Increasing numbers have us hosting T20 4 nights a week now o Envisage we may need to utilise Nippers Oval in 3-4 years’ time

• Precedent is already set with Augusta Oval having a cricket pitch on the oval with a cover of a poorer specification

o Our proposed matting is much better quality and will finish flush with the ground surface

• Safe for cricket o The ground does not need work done to make it safe to play cricket on

Cons

• No benefit for the existing user groups of Nippers Oval o Rugby

Currently unable to play across matting with insurance issues Requires a home ground in Gloucester Park

• Can fixture rugby on the main oval o Sleeves already in the ground for goal posts o Rugby has played games there in the past

o Junior Football Not ideal to have a cricket pitch near/offset from the middle of the

Nippers Oval

Installation procedure if proposal is succesful • MRHCC and MRJCC to fund and install entire wicket

o MR Mini Earthworks and Tate Constructions to oversee all works • Pitch to run 25m north, from a central location 7m east of the middle of the oval

o Discussed with Peter Traeger from AMRJFC and he is happy with this location • 25m long, 3m wide, 100mm thick • AMRSC to part fund protective matting in conjunction with MRHCC • AMRSC responsible for installation and removal of matting each change of season as

this is under the shire insurance

Correspondence with effected user groups AMRJFC – don’t support, but are not against proposal

• Understand our need for another cricket wicket • Can’t support the MRHCC with our proposal due to their being no benefit to their club • However, they will not oppose this motion if SRAC vote in favour of motion

Gropers Rugby Club – support proposal • Understand our need for another cricket wicket • Support the motion as long as they are guaranteed a home ground

o We have approached the AMRFC for support with the GRC playing on the main oval Have had minimal response with AMRFC as detailed below

o We have also approached Recreation Manager from the Shire as they are in charge of bookings and they can accommodate all sporting groups with fixture’s

AMR Shire – support proposal • Have the support from the following

o Shane Backsai Football Oval should handle extra rugby games on it Closer supervision in future years required

o Dylan Brown Fixturing on the main oval will not be an issue, with or without AMRFC

support o Craig Young

Everything is “ticked off” internally with the shire and is happy for pitch to be installed

o Annie Riordan Supports proposal

AMRFC – support proposal

• Prior to 27th July, 2015 o Spoke to Shayne Payne regarding proposal and requested this be brought up

at committee meeting o Was not discussed

• 27th July, 2015

o Attended committee meeting requesting the following – that “the AMRFC support LGRC to play their home games on the main football oval in Gloucester Park.”

o Was instructed to go away and find out if next seasons fixtures would allow rugby to be fixture on the oval Informed committee I would go away and base next seasons fixtures

on this season as the current season is still going • 28th July

o Emailed AMRFC with three options, taking into consideration junior, senior, super rules, women’s and rugby Saturday fixtures. Same fixtures as this year Same as this year with 5 Saturday home games Same as this year with 7 Saturday home games

o Requested this be brought up at the following committee meeting on August 10th

o Have attached these proposed fixtures • 4th September

o Emailed AMRFC to see if an answer was decided upon at the August 10th meeting

o Was informed more time was required at committee level o Replied with email saying we require an answer urgently as the next SRAC

meeting was in 3 ½ weeks’ time and the proposal was being submitted there • 24th September

o Received email from Ray Colyer, Bar manager, stating the club would only respond once an outstanding account was paid up to date

o Spoke to President Shayne Payne and informed him that without a response, we would assume the AMRFC supports our proposal.

• 6th October o Still no response back from AMRFC

Football Margaret River – support • Are indifferent to proposal as it will not affect them • Support proposal as long as it is a “need” over a “want”

Alternate options Several options have been provided to the MRHCC and MRJCC instead of playing and training on Nippers Oval.

• Rapids Landing School Oval o Not due for realistic completion until 2020

We believe by that stage we will be requiring another 1 or 2 pitches anyway so will be looking to use that too

• Rosa Brook Oval o 20 minutes east of Margaret River o Good sized ground, but a lot of work required to get to standard for cricket o Not suitable for training due to distance from town

We use nets and pitch for training o Not irrigated therefore too much of a financial burden to get irrigated and

drainage Estimate in excess of $500,000 to get up to standard

o Unsure of who is responsible to keep at standard to play cricket on the outfield Rabbit and kangaroo damage during summer months

• Karridale Primary School Oval

o Too small a ground for junior and senior games 35m boundaries (require minimum 45m)

• Gnarabup Oval

o Too small a ground for juniors and seniors 35m boundaries (require minimum 45m)

Precedent in the Augusta Margaret River Shire and the greater AFL family

• Augusta Margaret River Hawks Junior Football Club o Augusta Junior Football Club

Currently the Augusta football oval has a rubber matting covering their synthetic cricket pitch

There is a depth differential of about 70mm between the grass and the rubber which could be deemed a hazard

The rubber matting is not hard up against each other and the gaps filled with sand

Our proposed matting has a pile covering to match better with the surrounding grass and to give better grip

• Secret Harbour Dockers Football Club o City of Rockingham – Rhonda Scarrott Oval, Tangadee Road, Golden Bay o Currently senior mens AFL football is played on this oval which is covered by

our proposed matting

o Paul Smith, the president of the Secret Harbour Dockers had the following to say regarding their covering I have not received any reportable complaints regarding the covers

over the cricket pitch They are holding up under game and training requirements Secret Harbour Football Club is happy with the product

• City of Cockburn – Goodchild Reserve, Atwell

• City of Rockingham – Rhonda Scarrott Oval, Tangadee Road, Golden Bay

• City of Melville – Shirley Strickland Reserve, Coogee Rd, Ardross
