The highlights of this week’s games came from the Bs again
this week.
Alecia Holt, playing her first B grade game for the season
complete a PB of 5/19. She completed her
first “Michelle” with two wickets in her first spell and three in six balls
across her 6th and 7th over. Four where bowled and one lbw. She was also excellent in the field and made
a patient 9 off 18 balls.
We took three early wickets having The Eagles 3/29 in the 10th
over (including the wicket of former stae and Australian batter Caroline
Ward.) But a 124 run fourth wicket
stand took the game away from us. They finished
with 181.
Nikki Moyle took her first stumping for her career as a
keeper and Ella Wilson bowled economically for 0/17 off six overs.
Kaitlin Heath also took her first senior wicket with the
assistance of some sharp work from wicket keeper captain Kate Weger.
Chloe Lyons (19) and Alecia Holt (9) gave us a solid
platform with 29 in the first nine overs.
There were some significant milestones for players in the latter part of
our innings. Kaitlyn Heath, Zoe Reynolds
(on debut), Serena Ongley and Natasha Tillson all scored their first runs for
the club.
Our “mum” Jacqui Wilson 4 no not only outscored daughter Ella, but son
Angus who scored one for the Under 14 Whites!!!!
Due credit must go to the West Torrens team who were well
aware of our situation with new players to the game. (we had six players under the age of 12) and
gave our youngsters a chance to have success early in their cricketing careers.
We now have THREE PLAYERS from our Reynella Oval coaching with
Zoe Reynolds joining Kaitlyn Heath (2nd game) and Chelsea Kennedy
from this program.
A big thank you to the A graders who came back after their game to assist with the warm ups of our new players.

The As batted first against Port making 53. Kylie topscored with 18 no. Cara made 9.
Port scored the runs in 6.2 overs.
We welcome back the McGrath
sisters in the next few weeks from state duties.
This week the Bs venture to Price Memorial to play Sturt.
The As may have a 50 over catch up game from the 22nd
of November which was washed out. It will
depend on whether other clubs support the move.
State news
The Scorpions made it to the National Grand Final with a
spirited win on Friday against Queensland.
Tahlia took a wicket as we dismissed them for 90. She supported spearhead Megan Schutt (four
wickets) in her final spell.
She also made a valuable contribution of 15 off 16 balls
(second top score) as we chased the runs.
But the mainstay of the SA innings was Sarah Taylor who “got the job
done” with a patient 21 no off 50 balls to
see us home.
There was to be no fairy tale in
the GF with the NSW side winning by 143 runs.
Quiz night
Thanks to all involved in our fourth annual quiz night. There were over 75 paid attendees and over
100 at various stages in the evening.
B Mac, TCG, Donna and Rachael did a great job behind the
scenes and Bowey was a great compere.
We had an excellent representation from all parts of the
club and raised over $1600.
