It was a winning weekend for Carnegie CC to kick off the first round of cricket for the summer with all of the four teams that played recording victories. Well done to all who took the field and thanks to those who helped with off field duties to get everything ready, especially Hilton “Hilly” Duncan. Below are the match scores and best performers.

Our 1st and 2nd XI play their first match this weekend so we will have a big selection night this Thursday with a meal for $9 per person after training, catering for all diets. Now that daylight savings has kicked in and the weather is warmer it will be good to see some big numbers at all training sessions on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Our junior boys teams kick off this weekend and the All Girls Team and Milo in2CRICKET start next week and T20 BLAST on Sat 24th October. Get along and support our young cricketers as they love having seniors at their games. All fixtures are on mycricket.cricket.com.au

We are always looking for volunteers to help with a range of activities at the club so don’t be shy and ask Vinay, Elliot, your captain or any of the committee members on how to get involved.
