This will probably be played at Barker in the 1st week March. The second semi will be - Hills Sports (beat Pennant Hills) vs Kings or Oakhill (yet to be played). I’ve received very good feedback from the Riverview sports master, who said his team really enjoyed the competition and would love to be involved next year. I’ll start organising the competition earlier next year and I’m sure we’ll get at least 24 teams and hopefully 32(Knox are keen to come on board as well)."         MOVEMBER UPDATE - MESSAGE FROM HAMBOS   "Just wanted to thank everyone for the support for the Movember campaign this year.

The hessian overlay was laying on the wicket square area to dry out and got airborne and ended up tangled in the tree in Sherbrook Road, which is about 200 metres from the square. There is a tree fallen behind the scoreboard, which flattened the perimeter fencing but no damage to the scoreboard. Council is assessing the damage. The sight screen is being repaired and the fence panels will be replaced by the weekend to host Round 5.      CRICKET NSW NAMES TEAMS FOR 2014 IMPARJA CUP  Cricket NSW on 18th November 2013 named (click HERE to see the media release) the men’s and women’s teams that will compete at the 2014 Imparja Cup in Alice Springs between 9th and 16th February 2014. Congratulations and best of luck to the NDs players selected to represent NSW in this summer’s competition:  Dan Caldwell; Jemma Astley; Taylor Gilbert and Nikki Squires.
