The game was full on but good-natured when Noosa firefighters and police came together last Saturday for a Guns N Hoses Charity cricket match T20 at Tewantin Noosa Cricket Club.
Police came out winners on the day but the game was more about camaraderie and friendship than winners and losers.
Noosa Queensland Fire and Emergency Services chief station officer Rob Frey kicked off the event by paying tribute to the police for the work they do every day to keep everyone safe and for their professionalism which “is outstanding”.
He acknowledged the recent loss of lives of members of the police force around the country.
“Behind every officer is a family,” he said.
Noosa MP Sandy Bolton said every day police and firefighters put us first and not themselves.
“We love and respect everything you do for us,” she said.
The charity cricket match brought together local police and fire rescue officers for a friendly cricket match as well as raising money to benefit the Police and Fire Rescue Legacy Charities, providing vital support to the families of fallen officers.
