Unfortunately we have lost our last two games.

We played Gold Machine (including Brittany) loosing 77 to 81. Thomas and William made 25, Courtney and Donna 15, Cara and Brandi 17 and Sam and Rachael 21.  They made 81 with partnerships of 20, 7, 30 and 24.  A last ball desperate run with a one run lead gave us a half chance.

STATE NEWS

We had five reps in the State Indoor teams which played at Windsor Gardens in the first week of the school holidays.

Jess O'Reilly was captain with Kylie Rattray vice captain of the Under 18 side which included Rachael Greenshields, Courtney Brideson, Brittney Miller and Donna Clark.  The team was competitive in most games running Victoria to two runs.

I feel sure we will see the benefit of this sort of intensive game pressure as the season unfolds.
