Statement from cricket club
Dear Members,
For the 2019-2020 cricket season, Rovers United Bruck Cricket Club will hold all club functions and game-day operations from the multi-purpose building adjacent to the cricket nets.
This decision has been forced upon us by the Wangaratta Rovers Football Netball Club (WRFNC), who have decided that we are no longer welcome to use their facilities.
A letter from WRFNC last week advised us (in part):
“We have received advice, that the use by your Club of the licenced area of the Pavilion, is jeopardising our Liquor Licence.
“As such, the licenced area of the facility is not available for your use for the 2019/20 cricket season.
“We believe the best long term option for your Club is to relocate to the new community facility at the Reserve.”
The RUBCC executive and committee are extremely disappointed with this decision, as it goes against what WRFNC executive members had relayed to us in the days leading up to the decision.
Having digested the information, we are excited about this forced change in our location for our operations, and will strive to ensure that club members notice little difference in the running of the club.
In the short term, the RUBCC will not be able sell alcohol on the premises, however we are currently working hard to rectify this problem as soon as possible.

bit sad if true reflection of the situation. The interesting line is " We have received advice etc" ?
What would the CC be doing to jeopardise the liquor licence? ( sadly all important to a sports club. Unless you have pokies )
Do the CC need someone licenced , and don't cover the various laws?
Would seem a rational meeting of the people involved might be appropriate. Small town , so you pass people in the street.
I'll watch with interest who mows the lawn ( grass )
It is also interesting the community facility. NEB umpires no home rooms after fire. Will they be training on the WJ 2020?
I hope so , maybe?
Options for clubs sharing facilities
The Victorian Government recognises the importance of sporting, recreational and social clubs to local communities. Many clubs share facilities such as clubrooms, function areas and sporting fields.vcglr.vic.gov.au
Interesting to read about liquor licensing for separate clubs sharing facilities. I wonder if the cricket club have their own licence or whether they just piggy back off the footy club’s?
Always two sides to every story, and I know that there was some disgruntled club members and committee at Rovers a few years back about the state of the social rooms after the cricket club used them, and the minimal contribution to facility upkeep and improvement provided on their part. They are footy club owned and built resources after all and I guess there is only so much blood a leech can suck before it gets flicked off.
Considering the president runs some pretty successful hotel/motels in the North East-Border I reckon she would have a fair idea of their liabilities when it comes to liquor licensing. Having said all that I am not privy to what has gone on behind the scenes but just a different perspective on the issue I guess
Anymore info on him pleasetrent Castles has signed at Corowa
and the minimal contribution to facility upkeep and improvement provided on their part
I know the CC contributed $5000 towards Split systems a few years back..

They are a footy club that know call themselves a Sports Club so they will have to put up with a few more "leech's" if thats the case or just go back to being the Rovers Football/netball club
Anymore info on him please
Kicked 100 goals with Jindera and yackandandah, played previously with Albury and North Albury, will provide a good target for the roos
I'm sure the cricket club president won't be too concerned about this, as long as there is tea and coffee making facilities he'll be happyKnowing the president and a few of the committee of the cricket club, they were very strict on the running of the bar last year, they had a roster for people to run the bar at all times with RSA's. I think a couple of newbies on the Football club board have made the decision without thinking of the ramifications and the way it affects other clubs
Speaking of leeches , I hope I haven't opened a can of worms. ( small town , you pass each other ) . ( 2 heads ) Sadly people over the years I have noticed , get to the head of ( any ) organisation , and get ahead of themselves? Sporting clubs just 1. (city or rural councils? ) The big "C" is cancer ( health and social ) , the small "c" is common sense? May lower case prevail.
Thanks for that . Cupido that's a worryKicked 100 goals with Jindera and yackandandah, played previously with Albury and North Albury, will provide a good target for the roos
