On Sunday 17th August, the Gordon Women’s Cricket Club held their annual Come ‘n’ Try Day at Artarmon Oval. Some old (or should I say familiar) faces were in attendance and it was great to have several new players trying their hands at a bit of cricket. Thankfully Mother Nature also played a part in the day, serving up a beautifully warm and sunny Sydney day for the first session of the season.
Third grade opening bowler, Lisa "Jackie" Chan, shows her style...
Players from first grade, second grade and third grade were in attendance and it was fabulous to have so many juniors showing us oldies how it’s done. Welcome to all of our new players who gave it a go – we hope to see you back in the following weeks at Sunday morning training.
Jess “Davo” Davidson makes the most of coach Ed Howitt Jnr’s batting tips
Thanks to our coaches David Lawson, Jodie Davis, Bronwyn Calver and Ed Howitt Jnr for running the batting, bowling and fielding drills on the day. It proved invaluable to all in attendance, especially to the new players and those of us that need a little bit more help with our game. Thanks also to Mr “Jackie” Chan for cooking the BBQ and to Davo (Jess Davidson) for ensuring Nudie Juices were provided as refreshments on the day.
Gordon is for everybody – Juniors, Brewers, Seniors and State players!!
