THE HISTORY OF THE WILLETTON CROWS CRICKET CLUB

The club is in the process of building a record of match results, individual player records, century scorers, century partnerships and five wicket hauls, with the aim being to create the most accurate record of the Willetton/Southern Districts/Willetto Senior/Willetton Crows Cricket Club as possible.

As well as on field records, research will be made to record an accurate list of the club's office bearers from its formation.

External resources, such as the SMCA's historical records and information gained from newspapers and other clubs will be used for this project. So far, the club would like to thank Tony King from the Thornlie Cricket Club, the Maddington Cricket Club website, Geoff Chellew, Carl Greedy and Rob Sims for their assistance.


If you have any information which would help update our records, then please don't hesitate to contact the club.
