60's & 65’s Teams

Cyclones 60s/65s cricket is played with just as much enthusiasm as our 50s, but at a slightly more relaxed pace. Our games are (generally) all played on turf wickets, often mid-week, and usually of 40 overs per side duration. Cyclones compete in the Greater Sydney Vintage (Over 60s) competition each season. Ten to twelve sides from the greater Sydney area play each other once during the season on a home/away basis, on Sundays, approximately every 2-3 weeks. In the 2021-22 season we won the championship in this competition, being undefeated for the season, and have finished in the top four places each season since.

We also play (generally mid-week) games against a number of regional opponents; Newcastle, Sydney, Lithgow, Southern Highlands, Tamworth, Quirindi, Mid North Coast, Coffs Harbour etc.; where we travel to them or they come to us. Lastly, we occasionally play very social intra-club games (against ourselves) a couple of times each year.

Beyond that, Cyclones enter into State Titles (for 60s and 65s) which are held in a different regional centre each year. From State Titles our players may make themselves available for selection to play for NSW in National Titles, again held in a different state capital each year. From National Titles, players may be selected to play for the Australian Over 60s (or 65s) side. In the 2023-24 season our current Vintage team Captain, Geoff Patterson, played for Australia in the championship-winning Over 60s side.

During the 2023-24 season, Cyclones hosted the 65s State Titles at the Central Coast Regional Sports Complex (Tuggerah). Eight teams in two divisions competed over three days. An impressive and successful carnival, bringing together almost 200 players and supporters from around the state.

60s cricketers generally train on Wednesdays from 9.30 am until around midday at Duffy's Rd nets at Terrigal. Keep an eye on your emails for reminders about training and for calls to nominate for upcoming fixtures.Cyclones home ground is Rogers Park, Woy Woy, where we have club rooms and use of both the turf and synthetic wickets.
