AS YOU TRAIN, SO SHALL YOU PLAY!

 To Tappers and our senior playing group –

The Cricket Committee is delighted by the attendance levels, and (by and large) the effort put in by all players, from Tappers down, at senior training throughout this rather-disrupted season, commencing as long ago as pre-season training. As Tappers mentioned, when announcing the teams for Round 10 (played on 12 February), there was an almost-perfect attendance record during the week leading up to Round 10. Of course, that is the way things should be, but it has not always been so.

As we move forward into further crucial matches for the 1’s, important pre-finals matches and finals for the 2’s and 3’s, and the flying finish to the season that Vikram and the 4’s deserve, I encourage you all to keep up the effort, and even to intensify it. In some instances, clichés are true – “As you train, so shall you play.”
