Responsibility, what's that?

On the 30th of October, the unthinkable happened...........

I became coach of an under 15's cricket team.

It's funny how any organisation or sporting club would ever leave me in charge of anything, especially children, because I think that I'm as big a kid( if not, bigger) than most of the boys that I coach.

But the boys are cool, and I have great people helping out. In our first game, against North Pines, we made 163, a pretty decent score. The next week in the same match, we were unable to secure victory, as rain has washed out play.

In the first week against Salisbury West, we were made to pay for sometimes lazy fielding and wayward bowling, conceding a score of 7 for 239. The boys need to bust a gut at training if they hope to get close to that score.

Well, let's see what happens. Watch this space. Or another space.
