2002/2003 Report - Under 13/1
After the disappointment of finishing runners up the previous year, we were hoping for a better finish in 2002/03. Late withdrawals at the start of the season in Division 2 saw our team with the bare 11 players. This had us on the back foot from the start. Ashleigh Endacott was appointed captain for the season. We finished the minor rounds in 2nd place with 7 wins, 1 draw, 1 tie and 3 losses.
SEMI-FINAL
We played Kings Langley, last year's premiers and a team which had beaten us twice in the minor rounds. Ashleigh won the toss and batted. We started brilliantly to be 3/180 off 30 overs. The loss of several wickets saw our run rate drop but we batted out 57 overs to be 8/234. Kings Langley started well but lost 4 quick wickets to slump to 4/29. From then on it was just a matter of time and they were all out for 105. Best with the bat was James Frank, 89 and Max Pobihuszka, 48. The bowling saw 5 bowlers take 2 wickets each.
FINAL
This was against minor premiers, Norwest. We had won one match each at the end of the minor rounds. Norwest won the toss and batted. Steady bowling kept the run rate down but it took until the 17th over to get our first wicket. From then on they came regularly until Norwest were all out for 98 in the 56th over. Our stars with the ball were Mail Scholz, 4/9, Tanveer Josan, 3/10 and Tom Gurka, 2/16 (the first 2 wickets).
Thanks to Luke Dempsey (2 catches) for sub fielding in the final. The next day it was our turn to bat. We were quickly in trouble at 4/16 with semi final heroes James and Max out for 8 and 0 respectively. This left Ashleigh and Tom Gurka at the crease. They battled hard to take the score to 63 before Ashleigh was out for 24. Tom Warland and Tom Gurka then took the score to 76 before Tom Warland was the sixth wicket to fall. Tim Littlejohns then joined Tom Gurka and together they took us to 6/100 and victory! Best with the bat were Tom Gurka 36 no, Ashleigh Endacott 24 and Tim Littlejohns 12 no.
The team showed a lot of character throughout the season to overcome lack of numbers, injuries and representative commitments and become a great team during the finals. I was proud to be their coach.

Thanks to all the parents for their help throughout the season including the trivia night, Robin Druitt for scoring and Joe Gurka for managing and statistics. Joe, Doug, Chris and Louie for assistance with umpiring. John and Julie Pobihuszka for feeding me throughout the season and all the other mums for the numerous cups of coffee, biscuits and buns. Finally special thanks to all the players who made giant steps toward adulthood in the way they overcame the season's obstacles to go on and be the premiers. You should all be extremely proud of yourselves. See you all next season.
