Hi everyone, Just putting it out there, a new baseball club has been formed in the North West of Melbourne. We started out as the Sunbury Titans, and despite a large player interest, Hume council didnt want to help us out so we moved to the old Melton baseball field. I must say the Melton council have been great and so far its been a great working relationship. I hear the old Melton baseball club didnt have the best rep going round so Im here to let everyone know the North Western Titans are in no way affliated with the old regime. We are going to field mens and womens seniors sides (we hope for two senior mens teams) in this years summer league. We have a large interest for kids with t-ball, other junior sides we are slowly building. I have to thank all those at Baseball Victoria - (especially Grant Karlsen when he was the development officer) for their work in helping this project become a reality. Its been a long process and it would probably still be a pipe dream if not for their help and guidance from the beginning. Also the Waverly baseball club who donated a truckload of junior gear to our fledgling club. Thanks once again to all associated with Waverly. Thanks for reading guys and if anyone has got anything to add please do, Im sure there is stuff I havent even considered yet. Also if any clubs are getting rid of old gear, instead of throwing em out give them a second life.

Well done willo.
All the very best with the project!
Do the Titans have a website arranged yet? If you need help in developing a site through the ABF system, then yell out. There are members of this Forum who will be happy to lend a hand.

Good on you Willo, Im glad that your idea is fast becoming a reality, shame about the Sunbury diamond but Meltons ground was OK back in the day if you got on there before the wankers over there did their burn outs on and around it Clearly a ground is just a ground and it will be the players that will give it that warm club feel and no doubt you boys will be very welcoming. Good luck with it all and as earlier indicated I can get your a few tin bats for training if that helps ?

Good luck willo I take it then, that Melton folded completely? I know they left the GBA about 10 years ago now, but I heard they were still in the summer league up until recently. If so, I'm glad to hear that there is a summer club in that region again
