The club has enjoyed its most successful season since its inception in 1948, with all four of its grade sides making their respective grand finals _ believed to be a first in NTCA history.
``We won two premierships out of the four in A grade and third grade and we were aligned with the Cock N Bull Crusaders team that won the inaugural Aussie 15s competition at Aurora Stadium,'' Shamrocks president Michael Claxton said.
``Our club coach Adrian Tudor did a great job over three years building up the club's young talent.
``We also have an alignment with St Patrick's College and some of our players who played A grade and in our third grade premiership were part of their first XI that won the independent schools state premiership.
``Richard Soule and Luke McCormack have done a great job with the St Pats end of our club, which we've had going for our 11th season.
``We are really starting see some benefits from their school cricketers coming through to our club and being able to use their facilities on a Tuesday night, which is fantastic.''
Westbury won the Harold Bushby Shield for the best NTCA club with points accumulated across all four grades of the competition.
``We've also had great support from the Meander Valley Council and works manager Michael Pel who look after our ground out here,'' Claxton said.
