Join Tony Joel and Mathew Turner in launching their new book – Line and Length: A History of the Geelong Cricket Club.

This history was initially commissioned by the Geelong Cricket Club to celebrate its 30 years competing in Victorian Premier Cricket, the state’s elite club pennant competition (of which Geelong is the only team based outside of metropolitan Melbourne). However, Tony and Mathew eventually traced its history all the way back to 1846 – within the first decade of Geelong’s establishment as a township!

When: 5.30pm on Wednesday 28 February
Where: Kardinia Park. It will be the first official function in the club’s new Bruce Moore Room, which is part of the Stage 5 redevelopment of GMHBA Stadium.

For anyone who wants to attend, the RSVP is by 21 February to: Theresa.best@besteverevents.com.au

Line and Length is published by Slattery Books.
