Year 7/8 Girls Cricket

On Friday, a team of Year 7 and 8 Girls competed against Featherbrook in cricket for Interschool Sports. Although most hadn’t played cricket the girls were eager to learn and develop new skills.  The girls lost the game to a more experienced Featherbrook team but improved their batting and bowling skills and encouraged each other and want to return next year to play.

Congratulations to Jayda, Chloe, Elanna, Dima and Ayva- Year 7 and Josephine, Cynthia, Rosy, Grace, Ngwe Ngwe, Awak and Blay-Year 8.

Best batter- Dima

Best bowler-Joesphine

Sportsmanship- Elanna

Thanks to Ashlyn Hill for taking the girls out.

Year 7 Boys Cricket

On a sunny Tuesday, a team of Year 7 Boys competed in the Interschool Cricket competition.

Our first game was against Good News school. The boys performed well in the field, restricting Good News to a low score in their innings. Unfortunately, we fell short of the target in our run chase. Yash was a standout batsman, striking four boundaries during an impressive innings. 

Our second game was against a powerful Werribee team. While our bowling improved from first game, Werribee proved to be a dominant batting and fielding side. Despite the challenge, our boys never gave up and batted through to the end of their innings.

Our final game was against Manor Lakes. Unfortunately, the result did not go our way but the boys continued to display determination and resilience throughout the match.

Well done to Miguel, Kartikey, Arnav, Shlok, Daham, Jaxx, Campbell, Zayn, Ilyas and Yash. All boys represented the school with great sportsmanship and a positive attitude. 

A special mention to Yash for his outstanding leadership both on and off the field and Jaxx for his excellent all-round ability throughout the day

Thanks to Mr Shah for taking the boys out to cricket and supporting them throughout the day.

Year 8 Boys Cricket

On a hot Thursday last week, a group of Year 8 boys represented Wyndham Central College in Cricket for Interschool Sport.

Our first game was against Manor Lakes College. After a challenging innings in the field, our batsmen took to the crease and posted a competitive score. Although we were defeated by the eventual winners of the day, the boys performed well and showed great determination. Kanishk was a standout performer with the bat.

Our second match was against Featherbrook College. Once again, we bowled first and conceded a strong total. Chasing the target, our batsmen fought hard but unfortunately fell just short. Ravisha was the standout batsman in this game.

Our final match was against Point Cook College. After winning the toss, we elected to bat first. While the team worked hard, we were unable to post a large enough score. Harshith Raj was a solid contributor with the bat. As the heat intensified throughout the day, our bowlers found it difficult to contain the Point Cook batsmen.

The team's bowling improved with each game and all players should be proud of their effort, resilience, and sportsmanship throughout the day.

Congratulations to Mason, Blut, Lucien, Jasim, Kanishk, Century, Harshith, Dylan, Nu Nu Soe, K'Pru, Victor, Ravisha, and Harry for representing the College so well.

A special thank you to Mr Siranidis for accompanying and supporting the students on the day.

Yours in Sport - Ms Nicole Atkinson
