Well done, Zac Paton!

Zac and the U10 Takahe were on another level this weekend!

Zac absolutely dominated with the ball, taking an incredible 5 wickets for just 7 runs off his 3 overs. As if that wasn’t impressive enough, his five wickets included a hat-trick, some seriously outstanding figures!

The U10 Takahe capped off a fantastic team performance by posting a remarkable 281 runs in their innings. A brilliant day for Zac and the team, congratulations!

NOTABLE PERFORMANCE

Well done, Charlie Pavelin!

A true all-round performance from Charlie this weekend. He scored a rapid 54* off 37 balls, finding the boundary with ease, smashing 6 fours and 4 sixes in a superb knock.

Charlie then backed it up with the ball, delivering an excellent spell of 3 wickets for 4 runs off 3 overs. What a performance!

Your club is right behind you both. We can’t wait to watch you take this next step on the international stage and represent with pride.
