Haul of medals for masters

By RICHARD MURRIHY

NOOSA teams have dominated the Queensland Masters Softball Titles finishing with a gold, silver and fifth place.
The Noosa Rebels White took all before them as they went through the rounds with four wins and a tie before winning the final 11-1, the second gold in two years.
They all contributed in what was a very good all-round team effort and were rewarded with four players in the all-star team Ky, Dave S, Dave F and Forest.
Simon took two amazing catches on the final day in the outfield and Richard Wakeham’s effort to pitch out the final on one leg was a stellar. The men were coached by Cookie who did a great job, and Kim W did a great job scoring.
The women Noosa Beeches team went through undefeated in the rounds but lost the final 9- 8 in the last innings in what was a great game. Three players made the All- stars team – Cassie, Leanne and Rosie. Sue and Meredith had a hard job with all the injuries and balancing the team.
The Noosa Rebels Blue had fun, winning two games with Joey selected in the All-stars team. Steve hit a grand slam and Dennis smashed one out of the park during the final playoff games.
Jenny Clifford did a great job coaching, managing, scoring and chaperoning some of the players with a wonderful result for Noosa.
It’s back to Caboolture this weekend to start the finals and Noosa has all four teams playing so pack the family up early and get down and support them.
