COFFS Harbour Golden Oldies Cricket Club is putting out the call for veteran players to come and play the game they love.

The club is made up of over-60s players who have moved on from grade cricket but don’t feel they are done with the sport.

They practise throughout the year, every Wednesday, at the Richardson Park nets at Sawtell.

And they play in multiple tournaments across NSW and Interstate, in an abridged format for Veterans Cricket.

Some players also represent the region at the highest level for both State and Country, and are often invited to join tours overseas to play other nations.

The Golden Oldies are always looking for new recruits.

Club President Damian Madden encourages new members to come and play.

“It is a great way to stay fit, stay involved, meet and enjoy new friends, and be part of the great tradition in Australia of playing competitive sport no matter your age,” he said.

“We try to represent the local Coffs Coast region with pride and a competitive spirit while always playing with a smile on our face.”

Anyone interested in joining the Coffs Harbour Golden Oldies can contact Damian Madden on 0488 402867.
