RAVENSBOURNE SPORTING ASSOCIATION INC.

6-a-side cricket April 14
Now that the Bulls have won the Sheffield Shield, what better way to celebrate the win and train for next year’s competition with a bash down at the Ravensbourne Recreation Reserve in a 6-aside event.  Our cricket matches have always been a lot of fun and are keenly contested by players of all ages.  Only qualification is that players must be able to stand unassisted and see without the aid of binoculars.

Entry will be $7 per person.  The tournament will commence at 9:30 am and conclude around 3:00 pm.  Bring your own lunch.  Free tea and coffee.  Light refreshments on sale (drinks).

Nominations for teams or individuals wishing to be included in a team should be lodged with Association tournament secretary Maree Taylor PH: 4697 8152.
