Last weekend, all Monbulk teams finally got on the park this weekend, most for their first match of the season.
The highlight of this round was definitely our junior results. The U16’s had an exciting win which came down to the last ball. Playing Upwey-Tecoma at home, we batted first and managed to make 95 highlighted by an amazing innings of 64 not out from 54 balls by Lucas McIntosh. Monbulk then bowled tightly to begin with. Ethan Knight took 2/11 and we got 3 run outs to win by 2 runs.
The U14’s and Fast 9’s also had wins with our brand new Super 7’s team starting their first ever match on Wednesday night until they were unfortunately washed out when a big storm rolled through.
Looking forward to a big day next Sunday 20th November to celebrate our 125th Year which includes: a Junior T10 match start (10.30am), ‘125 Not Out’ Book Launch (12pm), Finger Food Lunch & Catch Up (1pm), Juniors Blasters session (1pm), & Senior T10 Match v Seville (2pm)
