History

6/11/2010 – our U14 Whites completed their 2nd tie in two matches. Against Redfield (at Northholm Grammar) they were set 226 for victory after day 1 and were bowled out for 225. On this day (6/11) we were chasing 185 for victory against last year’s premiers WPHC Green and were bowled out for 184. Peter Rashleigh, Manager of the U14’s commented:

“The tied match against Redfield was the first time in my life as a player, manager, coach & parent that I have ever been involved in a tie and it is hard to believe that it could happen again in the next round.”
