The Leeming Spartan Cricket Club has acquired an extremely illustrious list of Premierships in our one hundred years of operation, and incredibly, averages one premiership every two seasons.

Since our foundation in 1918, the Club has accumulated a record fifty premierships from a variety of different grades, since our first back in 1922.

Since that inaugural trophy in the Churches Association, we have won premierships in five other competitions, with our most recent coming in the South Metropolitan Cricket Association’s Fifth Grade in 2016.

You can view the full list of Premierships by clicking here, and it is also worth noting that not all Premierships had a photograph taken, particularly some of the earlier victories.

5th Grade – Two-Day Premiership:

5th Grade 2 Day 2015/16

Leeming Spartan Cricket Club defeated East Fremantle by nine wickets at EG Chapman Reserve

The Spartan Thirds (SMCA 5th Grade) defeated the reigning premiers in East Fremantle in the two-day final, getting revenge for their previous season’s grand final loss to the same opposition.

East Fremantle won the toss and batted, and incredibly, they could only manage 75 all out due to the fantastic bowling efforts of Gavin Poller 6/39 and Andrew Gibbs 3/22.

We overtook the score but were all out for 115, with Shayne Hersey making 51.

East Fremantle elected to bat again in an effort to force an outright victory and declared at 6/123. Shayne Hersey (40) and Russell Lee (36 not out) made sure there would be no hiccup in the chase.

There was in fact an outright victory, albeit not the one East Fremantle had hoped for, as the Spartans chased the total down for the loss of three wickets.

The Premiership Team (In Batting Order): S. Hersey, D. Woodward, R. Lee, D. Putland (Captain), D. Usher, K. Poller, A. Gibbs, B. Rushton, G. Poller, M. Poller, S. Murfitt.

5th Grade 2 Day 2015/16

Leeming Spartan Cricket Club defeated Thornlie at Trevor Gribble Reserve

The Thirds defeated Thornlie in the One-Day Final mainly due to Jason Cunningham’s 57 runs and Jayden Putland’s 5 for 29.

Despite these outstanding performances, it truly was a team performance, with the side producing one of their best efforts of recent years to record the victory.

One-Day ‘D’ Grade Premiership:

Leeming Spartan Cricket Club defeated Kenwick by nine wickets at Mills Park

The Spartan One Day ‘D’s defeated Kenwick – their second top side – in the grand final, a 40-over affair.

Kenwick won the toss and elected to bat, but were rolled for just 56, with Vice-Captain Nathan King taking 5/11!

With the damage having been done with the ball, it left little work for the side in their batting innings, although Darren Hewson once again found time to post a notable score, making 37 not out.

Incredibly, having easily chased the score down in ten overs for the loss of one wicket, they were back at the Club celebrating by tea time at 3:00pm!

The Premiership Team (In Batting Order): S. Ockenfels, G. Burgess, D. Hewson (Captain), G. Tysoe, G. Harris, P. Popiel, T. Warner, S. Byrne, N. King, S. Haq, J. Tuthill.

Leeming Spartan Cricket Club defeated Cockburn at John Connell Reserve

Led by Adam Seaward in the absence of injured skipper Dale Putland, we won the toss and batted first.

The Spartan 6th Grade scored a defendable 169, with even contributions from Darren Usher, Mitch Putland, Glenn Hack and Dallas Eparaima.

Cockburn got off to a good start, but when Jayden Putland bowled Ferraro to take the first of his four wickets, the rot set in and batsmen fell on a regular basis.

Jayden was supported in the bowling by Geoff Burgess and Mitch Putland.

Playing at home, we lost the toss and East Fremantle elected to bat.

We lost the toss and CBC elected to bat, with the home side losing a wicket in the first over, one of five that Sean Wright captured at the start of their innings.

A couple of middle order partnerships were starting to become a problem when Dave McKay took control with four wickets.

They eventually scored a competitive 189 from their seventy five overs.

After Will Webber was dismissed early, Nathan Whitely and Jason Cunningham put on 92 to steer us towards victory.

In a typical Spartan v CBC Final, we then lost a number of wickets and the game see-sawed, until finally Sean Wright hit a towering six to claim victory!

Sean Wright took 4/25, and Shayne Hersey, and Alan Culbertson took 2 wickets each.

Leeming Spartan Cricket Club defeated CBC by one wicket at Karoonda Reserve

Playing away, we lost the toss and CBC elected to bat.

They got off to a good start, but a great recovery with the ball saw them lose 10 for 65 to be all out for just 116.

Andrew Gibbs took 5 for 33 and Anand Mavani 3 for 26. Scott McKechnie took 6 catches. We were 5 for 104 and seemingly on the way to victory after Todd Lavender got us off to a good start with 37.

However, wickets then fell in quick succession and it was left to Anand Mavani to score the final three runs to achieve a hard fought victory by just one wicket!

Were in a bit of trouble at 2/20, but great partnerships between Russell Lee and Andy Walton, and then Lee and Putland, saw us to a very competitive 8/220.

Russell Lee scored 88, Andy Walton got 55 and Dale Putland made 30.

Kardinya were very well restricted due to some tight bowling and at no stage challenged our score.

Walton made it an excellent all-round performance with 3/14, and Matt Hosking took 3/41 to be the chief destroyers, with Shannon Davies and Jayden Putland lending support.

The Premiership Team (In Batting Order):  R. Blazevich, T. Fryers, R. Lee, A. Walton, B. Mant, D. Putland, B. Rushton, J. Putland, M. Hosking, S. Davies, P. Phillips.

1st Grade – Two-Day Premiership:

1st Grade 2008/09

Leeming Spartan Cricket Club defeated Armadale by 75 runs at John Connell Reserve

We won the toss and batted first at John Connell, defeating Armadale in a final worthy of its 1st Grade status.

The Spartans batted first and were in immediate trouble, losing Lavender to just the second ball of the day, and Darren Rose soon after to be at a precarious 2/2.

Steady batting by Matt Smith (39) and Craig Pereira (27) got things back on track, and a good partnership between Smith and Paul Kalleske (35) followed by some good hitting at the end by Dale Meyer (35) and Mark Atkinson, who made an unbeaten 39, (and a great six by Shane Thompson!) saw us make a very competitive 6/196.

Although Armadale applied themselves to the run chase and ensured the final was a closer affair than some might have thought, they lost wickets at regular intervals and were eventually out for 121. Will Badger took the bowling figures with 4/42, assisted by Mark Atkinson 3/28.

In all a great team effort all summer and our Spartan First Grade were well deserving Premiers in the 2008/09 season.

The Premiership Team (In Batting Order): T. Lavender, D. Rose. M. Smith, C. Pereira, P. Kalleske, D. Meyer, M.Atkinson (Captain), S. Thompson, W. Badger, B. White, A. Mavani.


3rd Grade – One-Day Premiership:

We won the toss and batted first. (No photo available)

Glenn Hack got us off to a flying start and we lost our first wicket at 33 in just the third over.

John McGuire then accumulated a great fifty, having good partnerships with Andrew Gibbs, and Kevin and Gavin Poller.

Unfortunately, the tail didn’t wag and we were bowled out for a below-par, yet still highly competitive, 163.

Cockburn started well , but then lost three wickets in quick succession, with Gavin Poller snaring two. After another good partnership, Kevin Poller came on and bowled exceptionally well to take 4/41 and tighten the screws.

Cockburn was eventually all out for 145, and thus, a well-deserved victory for the Spartan 3rd Grade had been obtained.

Andrew Gibbs made 25 and took 2/24 in a good all round performance.

The Premiership Team (In Batting Order): G. Hack, A. Seaward, J. McGuire, A. Gibbs, K. Poller, G. Poller, L. O’Dea, B. Rushton, J. Hewitt, R. McKinlay, S. Davies (Captain).


5th Grade – Two-Day Premiership:

Leeming Spartan Cricket Club defeated Phoenix by five wickets at Enright Reserve & Davilak Oval

Phoenix won the toss and batted.

Two great bowling spells by perennial finals performers in Mick Bennett (25 overs – 5/47) and Wayne Fontana (27 overs – 4/29) meant that Phoenix didn’t get into the game at any stage.

A twenty-eight-run partnership was not enough to provide a substantial total and they were bowled out for just 86!

We were 1/20 overnight, looking to come back the next and complete victory.

However, drama ensued on Sunday as the pitch at Enright Reserve was damaged and made unplayable overnight.

Quick negotiations resulted in the match continuing at Davilak Oval (Cockburn’s home ground and therefore a ‘neutral’ venue).

We resumed on 1/20 and lost both overnight batsmen without addition to the score.

Peter Ferguson and Brad Mant took the score to 53, and Brad continued to bat well in making 37.

With Mant’s dismissal, Tim Brent and Jim Leinasars got us over the line to beat the previously undefeated Phoenix side by five wickets.

The Premiership Team (In Batting Order): W. Fontana, D. Abercrombie, P. Phillips, P. Ferguson, B. Mant, D. Hodgettes, T. Brent, J. Leinasars, G. Boyes (Captain), M. Bennett, K. Boyes.

Although we lost early wickets, Jason Cunningham batted very well and was unfortunate to be dismissed on 38.

Craig Pereira and Shayne Hersey saw us home with some good hitting at the end, seeing us to a two wicket win.

In reply, we were never troubled, winning comfortably for the loss of four wickets.

We won the toss and batted at John Connell Reserve.

A succession of partnerships, anchored by Wayne Fontana and expanded on late in the innings by Craig Pereira saw us finish with a very competitive 179.

Armadale’s run chase got off to a disasterous start, losing a wicket with Daniel Reid’s first ball.

A fantastic spell of bowling from Reid (3/16) and Shayne Hersey (4/37) didn’t let Armadale into the game and they were dismissed for just 76.

Our First Premiership:

Spartan Cricket Club defeated Brighton by one run at Fremantle Park

Spartans and Brighton met in the Grand Final for the second consecutive season, but this time, the Spartans were the victors by just one run! The highlight of the game was a hat-trick taken by the wicket-keeper Eddie Saggers to finish Brightons second innings. 

Brightons only needed three runs to win, so Saggers was relieved of his pads to bowl the last over. His three wickets for one run snatched victory from the jaws of defeat in a most spectacular fashion.

Reg Prince the captain was still boasting about his clever piece of “strategy” at the club reunion held in 1974!

“The Spartans won their first Premiership by one run, on the back of wicket-keeper Eddie Saggers’ hat-trick in the final over!”

T. Constantine, with 344 runs and W. Meyer with 69 wickets were the seasons’ leading players.

The Premiership Team (In Batting Order):  J. Whittome, E. Saggers, J. Brooke, T. Constantine, C. Jarvis, J. Groves, R. Pepworth, W. Meyer, R. Prince (Captain), R. Kirk, B. Brooke.
