Berg Shield Cricket
On Thursday 27 October, the Year 7-9 boys' cricket team travelled up the mountain to Oran Park to kick off their campaign for the Berg Shield. The sun was shining and the sky was blue. Our opponents, Magdalene College, were as excited as we were to finally get to play and they fielded a mixed team of boys and girls of varying cricket experience. Joey’s started the match perfectly by winning the toss and sending Magdalene into bat. Unfortunately, that was as close as the game got, as they scored 192 runs off their 20 overs, with their opening batter scoring 112. Unfortunately, Joey’s only scored 40 runs, however, the foundations are there for future years. I could not be more proud of the way the boys carried themselves with respect and sportsmanship, even after the hard day!
The team: Tristan Denmeade, Wil Moran, Aaron Smith, Tyler Ruprecht, Ben Maloney, Thomas Welland, Archie Faulks, Sam Huetter, Ridhaan Pannala, Mackay Schumacher, Cody Cartwright, Cooper Hill.
