Tony Sturesteps deserv­edly scooped the pool on Warrandyte Cricket Club's presentation night last month, winning the Jack McAuley Shield for club champion. The club's captain-coach also

won the RDCA:s best all-rounder award with the most aggregate points in terms of runs scored and wickets taken. He missed the best player award by a vote. To top it off he easily won War­

randyte's batting award with 603 runs at an average of 50.25. Club president Russell Doming

said the club was fortunate to have someone of Sturesteps' ilk in charge.

Warrandyte's world-class canoe­ist Richard Macquire is going to the Olympics. The 24 year-old Bradleys Lane resident will rep­resent Australia in the Kl Slalom Whitewater competition at the Atlanta Games in July. Macquire, who finished in 11th

place at the World Champion­ships in Nottingham in England last September, has his sights set on a top 10 finish. Currently in America until the

end of April training on the Ol­ympic course, Macquire will col/le home only briefly before returning to the States to give himself the best shot at an Ol­ympic medal. The former Warrandyte Pri­

mary School student has com­mitted most of his spare hours to the sport in recent years, giv­ing up much of his work as a successful local builder to dedi­cate himself to the task. His mother, Lyn, who will fly

with the rest of the family to At­lanta to be at the Games, says she is proud of Richard's .efforts

Warrandyte Football Club begins its 1996 campaign on Saturday, April 13, with a new-look senior team and realistic finals expectations.

Also back are tall ruckman Dale Comrie, a former outstanding junior who missed last season because of study and work commitments, and defender David Pike, another premature retiree. As many as six or seven players who

finished last season in the juniors could start the new season in the reserves, such have been the changes among on­field personnel.

Munro said Warrandyte was quite real­istically aiming at a finals berth. "I really believe we can and will make

the finals," he said. "We are a lot further advanced than we were at this stage last season."

Munro urged all Bloods supporters­and even the "uncommitted" -to be at the recreation reserve to see the under­ISs, reserves (now coached by Dale McCartin) and seniors kick off their new season.

The club has conceded the loss of 1993 premiership coach and dual best and fairest Darren Peters to Collegians, in the A-grade amateurs.

The Bloods are at home to Montrose­relegated from EDFL First Division-in the season's opener and local fans will see a bigger, taller Warrandyte team con­taining new faces and a few "new old" ones. Among the recruits are David Jones, a

utility player from last season's Second Division premier club Bayswater, and Chris Springett, another utility from Sec­ond Division Mooroolbark.

The Bloods gave an encouraging indi­cation of improvement from last year­when they finished eighth of 10, winning six of their 18 games-by beating Mooroolbark (fifth in 1995) by eight goals in their final practice match, at Mooroolbark on March 31.

"Darren decided to try out in the higher competition," Munro said. "He has given this club great service and we wish him the very best." "That applies, too, to Steve Carroll

(former captain and two-time best and fairest who has been training with First Division grand finalists Donvale but will be available for only the first half of the season anyway).

The club is still seeking new talent for those three sides and any senior player interested in trying out is invited to con­tact Munro (9726 5339) or David Purcell (9842 7021). The under-18s contact is Robert Ireland (9725 5065). e Warrandyte Junior Football Club,

which now fields teams in two competi­tions, is still looking for under-14 and under-16 players. "We have filled the under-lls, 13s and

ISs in the Doncaster competitions, which we have entered this year, and the under-lOs and 12s in the EDFL, but we still need players for the under-14s and 16s in the EDFL," said WJFC president Malcolm Eyre. He welcomes inquiries on 9867 8166 (BH) and 9719 7587 (AH).

Back in the fold are two 1993 Third Divi­sion premiership players-mercurial wingman Brad Valentine, who has missed Warrandyte's past two seasons, and pro­lific goalkicker Darren Murphy, a former club best and fairest winner who retired prematurely at the end of season 1994.

"I couldn't have been happier with our performance-it was our best for some time," WFC president Lex Munro told the Diary. "We had several players missing but did

very well in what was a pretty physical game."

"We also wish Luke Mcfarlane-Smith and Chris Quinlan a lot of success in the new VFL competition (with Springvale and Port Melbourne respectively)."

"''m proud to be president with someone like him as coach. This has been shown with the awards he has received," Doming said. He said the club faced a chal­

lenging year ahead, after just avoiding relegation last summer. "We have our annual meeting

in May where we will review a lot of things and see what worked well and what didn't. "We'll certainly be out to share

the load as too much fell on too few both on and off the ground during the season. "The club has to go in a differ­

ent direction and there are plans on the board to make this hap­pen. We need more depth at a senior level and we need more people attending our social functions," he said. "Our facilities are second to

gold in making the Australian team. "We're very proud of him. He's

aiming high and is always very harsh on his own performance," she said. "The Slalom Whitewater event

is a very difficult competition where on the day anything can happen. It depends on the con­ditions. "The current world champion

from Germany is yet to even qualify for the Games so it is a relief for Richard to know he will be there." Macquire took up the sport at

the age of 12, when it was an easy walk from the family home to the Yarra River. · Since then he has progressed

to become the national cham­pion, competing at events around the world. "We're thrilled that Richard's in

the team and are looking for­ward to going the Games," Mrs Macquire said. And with Richard in the Aus­

tralian team Warrandyte locals will have that little extra reason to tune in and cheer loudly ..

none so we are hopeful of get­ting some positive results." Chris Snaidero predictably won

the bowling award, as he contin­ued to receive the plaudits for his remarkable 10/56 against Norwood in the last round. It was an effort which saved the

club from relegation. He took 32 wickets for the season at an av­erage of 16.75, not bad consid­ering he had spent the previous few seasons in the seconds. Wicketkeeper Dave Mooney

kept his title as the team's best fielder while rising opening bats­man Steve Bell won the captain's

Brian Chapman's association with the Warrandyte Cricket Club is as successful as it is tragic. A child prodigy of the dub,

opening the bowling in the firsts while still in his teens, he seemed destined to become one of their all-time great players. But at the age of 21 his

doctor told him he would never play the sport again. For someone who grew up loving the game with a passion it was hard to take. When Chapman's outstand­

ing service to the dub was officially recognised with the awarding of life membership last month, for many it

Chapman to be bestowed the dub's highest honour. He joins father Alan, brother John, sister Jenny and wife Jenni (nee McLaws) as recipients of the award, recognising outstanding service to local cricket. Chapman joined the club as

a nine year-Qld in 1971. By 1977 he was in the senior's top team and was soon opening the bowling and displaying more than able competence with the bat. But then his doctor deliv­

ered him the shocking news.

Webb is also on the rise. He snared 6/26 from 18 overs in the final to set Kilsyth on the back foot after they started 0/22. But then Webb, who bowled un­

changed from one end with Peter Sharpe (2/24) and Peter Raby (21 17) at the other, struck. Warrandyte started brilliantly in

their run chase. Trent Gathercole (26) and Tyson Brent (27) pushed the score to 54 to ensure victory. · Despite losing a quick 5/20 Luke Revell (31 not out) held doLQn one end to keep them on track; Richard Webb completed a fine

game by hitting 50 not out. When he reached the milestone the game was called off, Warrandyte 6/163 and comfortable winners for their "three-peat".

centration, without him after Christmas we would have been playing in A grade next season." Richard Webb won the Daryl

Valentine Shield as the best per­former outside of the ones. Ann Pascoe's magnificent ef­

forts for the club off the field were recognised with the award­ing of the McCartin Family Shield. Already a life member of the club, she is the type of per­son that no community-based club or group can do without. Other awards: Seconds: Steve

"He told me that I had a compressed disc in my back and would never play again," Brian Chapman said. "I was shattered by that, and

while I still held hopes of returning I was then in two car accidents, neither of which were my fault, that wrecked it totally." Instead of retiring away from

the scene Brian found a new pursuit, coaching the club's womens eleven side. He did that for 12 years, talking them to the top with the 1991/92 premiership. He has since returned to the
