In two weeks, the 25th Annual Six-A-Side Tournament will take place at Parry Field. The team took the opportunity to brighten up the Clubhouse for all the visitors.
Despite unusually cold temperatures, the team went to work, measuring and cutting the floorboards, laying it all down and finishing early afternoon on Sunday.

It is with deep regret we mourn the passing of our dear friend and colleague Richie Benaud, who was our club’s patron for over 20 years.
A regular visitor to Sarasota, he and Daphne enjoyed the many vacations and took a huge interest in the development of the Sarasota International Cricket Club.
In cricket circles, he was an Icon, a wonderful player and an ambassador for the game. Richie Benaud will be sorely missed. May he rest in peace.
