ROUND RESULTS 🐸🐸

The season kicked off this past weekend for our Mens 1sts and 2nds teams, as well as our Women's side.

It was 2 wins out of 2 for the Mens teams, with excellent performances for both sides. The highlights were important 50s from club stalwarts Mick Grozdanovski and Brendan Putt, a fantastic debut with the ball for Russ in our 1sts and a first ever 50 for the iceman Nathan Tucker to see the 2nds over the line.

The Women's team fought hard in their match against North Geelong, with our captain Carolyn Friend leading the way with the bat with an unbeaten 23. Unfortunately the team were unable to get this victory this time around, but have their sights set on a first win of the season against St Peters in round 2.
