Season 2021/22 provided many challenges for the club and teams.
The season started late, in October, due to Covid-19 lockdown conditions and as with season 2020/21 the season was cut short due to heavy rainfall at the end of February and March.
In between, we had 15 Junior teams having a great time competing in two associations every Saturday morning on grounds across the North Shore, Hornsby and Hills District.
The Committee would like to thank all volunteer coaches, managers and parents who assisted with scoring, umpiring and training throughout the season, we could not have done it without you.
U12 White Premiers 2021/22
Congratulations to U12 White, Minor Premiers and Premiers for Season 2021/22.
The team went through the season undefeated, with 11 wins and 2 n/r out of 13 matches eventually winning the Grand Final by 7 wickets.
Special mentions go to our other Junior teams:
- U14s just missed out on 2nd place by 0.06% on quotient. Unfortunately due to the wet end to the season, their SF was awarded to eventual Premiers Oakhill College in 2nd place
- U13 Reds finished in 5th place, just one point behind 4th. Again, washouts at the end of the season didn't help their bid for the semis.
- Starting the season with a close 4 run loss to last season's premiers and a close loss on the 2nd last ball in round 2, U15 Reds finished in 6th place, 2 wins off 4th place.
Girls Cricket
We were very pleased for the first time to have both Stage 1 and Stage 2 Girls Cricket teams playing in the North Shore Junior Cricket Association (NSJCA) on Saturday mornings.
Both teams had a huge amount of fun carrying the skills they have learnt in Master Blasters into junior cricket and we look forward to them returning to Junior cricket again next season.
