Spotswood Cricket Club are absolutely rapped with the resigning of opening bowler Jackson Wadden back to the club. Jacko who had a season off is back ready to fire and hopefully set a pathway for him to go to the next level in cricket.
Jackson knocked back many big offers to come back to Spotty to set his cricket career up and work with our experienced players along the way. Will be great to have the Wadden family back at the club again
Congratulations Mark Cranwell on Life Membership.
