All three Tewantin-Noosa Cricket team’s matches were abandoned on Saturday after storms swept across the Sunshine Coast. This was a disappointment to the players as three of the four teams had strong wins, the previous weekend.
FIRSTS: The team had travelled to Nambour and batted first scoring 162. This score should have been at least 200 plus with openers Jake Dennien (54) and Alex Bennett (32) setting up the foundations. However, the other nine batsmen struggled to put runs on the board and this is an area the team will need to improve on when they begin the two-day matches later this month. When the storm hit, Nambour were 0 for 41 after 10 overs.
Thirds, Fifths and Sixes who started their matches at mid-day had all their games washed out.
Next weekend all the teams will be playing double One-Day matches, the first on Saturday and the second on Sunday. The fixtures arrangements are as follows:
FIRSTS: Saturday (10am) V Coolum and Sunday (10am) V Caloundra. Both matches at Read Park.
THIRDS: Saturday V Maroochydore (Buderim) and Sunday V Burpengary at their ground. (both matches starting at 12.30pm)
FIFTHS: Saturday V Glasshouse at Glasshouse and Sunday away to Caloundra (Both matches starting at 12.30pm)
SIXTHS: Saturday V Palmwoods and Sunday V Maroochydore. (Both matches at Dale Officer Oval and commencing at 12.30pm)
