2 from 2 gentlemen... 118-110 against the Milperra Viking Marauders!!! The rain held off long enough for us to get a win in against our arch nemesis... Batting first we got 118 which is the highest score of the season so far... Contributions made by Craig Holden 24*, Grant Holden 22* and back from a four year spell Craig Bowden with just missing out on retirement with 19*!!! A staggering 14 wides were bowled too which adds handsomely to the final score... Going out to defend 118 is still anyones game given the nature of Masters Cup but we prevailed in the very last over and that's how we have won both our first two games of the year!!! New Skipper Paul Collins once again the pick of the bowlers getting 2-7... 2 games as skipper and now has 4 wickets to his name so something different must definitely be in his water bottle and whatever it is hopefully he'll be a good sport and share it around!!! David Thode bowled well in the last over to get us home for the win... Next weeks clash will be against the other undefeated team in the competition the Berserkers!!! Let's go for 3 in a row lads!!! 

As of yesterday the Bankstown Council has re opened Field 1 of Vale of Ah and with excellent weather being forecast for the next few days Round 2 will definitely be going ahead this Saturday... Round 2 has us playing the Milperra Vikings at 2pm!!! See you all there... 

We have a winner... In record time as well only after just 10 rounds!!! Winner of the Survivor competition is Carol Bateman... The club will be in contact shortly to arrange the presentation of first prize!!! Congrats Carol...

Grand Final day has been moved from the 27th of July to the following weekend the 3rd of August... Due to the washout this week the big game has been moved to accommodate the 10 game regular season!!! No decision has been made to prolong the season in the event of another washout but for now the 3rd of August has been locked in for the Grand Final festivities... Pencil the date in gentlemen!!!

The last update of the week is at 3pm on the Friday and if the grounds are open at that time then all play for the following weekend is on but if the grounds are closed then that means that no play at all can happen thru out the weekend...

The council has the very last say on wether we can play on the ground or not!!!  

All fields at Vale of Ah are still closed and have been so since Monday morning... With more inclement weather forecast for today, tomorrow and the weekend it looks pretty clear that play for Round 2 will be called off and if so all Round 2 games will be postponed to the following week!!! The final call will be made tomorrow evening... 

102-92... Great win for the Mud Crabs against Revesby Workers to kick off the 2024 campaign!!! Excellent performances with the bat from Craig Holden 27* Grant Holden 21* and Andrew Divan 20*... On his skippering debut Paul Collins the pick of the bowlers managing a wicket in both of his overs 1-11 and 1-10!!! A great first up win fellas and onto the next...
