The electric protect will be portion of the primary Tasmania JackJumpers side to play on Christmas when the group has South East Melbourne at MyState Bank Field, and he has family coming to Australia to celebrate the occasion with him.
“I’ve got family coming into town and they’ll get a chance to observe as well. It’s a awesome air and I know Tassie is getting to do its thing with everyone appearing up,” Crawford said.
“I have my girl, my mum, my father and my two cousins.
“It’s continuously great when they get a chance to at long last be able to observe me play rather than fair being on TV and for the most part it’s a mental thing to spend time along with your family amid the occasions – indeed exterior of occasions.
“Just being around them, it implies the world to you, all the small things.”
Crawford will be one of fair a modest bunch of players to be taking part within the opening amusement of the Christmas night double-header who has experienced playing on December 25 some time recently.

“When I was with Westchester we played in Sioux Falls on Christmas Day,” he said. “It’s another day at the office, I think everyone else builds it up more than the players think around it, but it’s still extraordinary.
“People are taking time out of their day with their families to come and observe us, which means a parcel as a player because you’ve got so numerous other things you’ll be doing on the day but you chosen to come and observe us play
“It gives you perhaps an additional small boost to go out and play indeed harder.”
