U8 – Green
Coach: Roshan Naran - Manager: Michael Wojtowicz
What a season!!! A year not to be forgotten due to the challenges the team and club faced due to Covid-19 and with more than 70% of the games played in wet conditions. Despite all this, the boys thoroughly enjoyed the season.
The kids’ all round skills and capabilities improved tremendously over the season with them applying what they learnt at training week in and week out. They were always well-presented, rearing to go during game day and wore the club colours with pride.
Highlights of our season included losing by a mere 9 runs against Glenorie at the start of the season and then bouncing back with a smashing 35 run victory in the last game of the season. This showed the tenacity and perseverance of the boys to stay motivated through the season despite results not going our way at times.
Ryan Wojtowicz our star bowler captured staggering figures of 6/1 (3 Overs Bowled) and a run out against an U9 opposition late in the season. A tremendous feat no doubt which earned him a special bowling trophy at the year-end presentation
One of the hardest jobs as a coach and with my manager was figuring out whom to give what award to due to the increasing efforts and improvements by each kid. In the end, we settled for the following:
Bowling Award: Ryan Wojtowicz Batting Award: Aaron Green
All round performance: Thomas Weeden
A special THANKS to all the parents who assisted during our weekly training sessions and on game day. I had the pleasure of coaching these wonderful young lads and am very proud of each one of them. I look forward to doing this all over again next season and hopefully for many more years to come.
