The West Torrens District Cricket Club ("Western Eagles") is a semi-professional cricket club in Adelaide, South Australia. It competes in the West End Grade Cricket Competition, which is administered by the South Australian Cricket Association (SACA). The Western Eagles field four senior teams and nine junior teams and are based at Henley & Grange Memorial Oval. Other grounds used by the club include Henley High School, Jubilee Oval and Lockleys North PS. The club has won 13 A grade premierships〔()〕 with the last being in 2006/07, breaking a 45-year premiership drought. The Eagles have also won 4 West End Cup (One Day) Premierships (1971/72, 1972/73, 1993/94 and 2003/04). During the past decade the club has become one of the strongest in the South Australian Grade Cricket League, winning lower grade premierships in 1995/96, 2002/03, 2007/08 & 2012/13 (B Grade), 2003/04, 2004/05 & 2006/07 (C Grade) and winning the SACA Club Championship in 2004/05, 2006/07 and 2011/12. Season 2011/12 was another strong year for the club; the Eagle playing in Grand Finals in the A grade, West End Cup One-Day Competition, C grade, A Grade Women's and the U16 Reds winning a premiership. The club was also successful in winning the BankSA Shield (U16s) and U13 premierships. ==History== The Club began in 1862 as the Hindmarsh Cricket Club with its headquarters at Lindsay Circus (now Hindmarsh Stadium) and has continued, with only a change of name in 1897, until the present day, making it the 2nd oldest cricket club in South Australia. Morphett Vale Cricket Club (established 1849) is the oldest cricket club in South Australia. The club moved to Thebarton Oval in 1921 where it remained until 1988 when it transferred to the adjacent King's Reserve. A lack of junior players and inadequate facilities saw a final move to the Henley and Grange Memorial Oval for the 1997-98 season. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「West Torrens Cricket Club」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
