SEDDON CRICKET CLUB VS ROTORUA BOYS HIGH SCHOOL

On Wednesday 6th November 2024, Seddon Cricket Club in conjunction with Queen Street Cricket Club, hosted Rotorua Boys High School at Seddon Park, Hamilton.

The purpose of this fixture was to give cricket at Rotorua BHS a boost after their cricket went into decline for over a decade. Rotorua BHS has had a proud cricket history and it’s wonderful to see some energy being put back into their programme.

Well done to Jeff Simmons for giving the passion it deserves.

Some notable performances throughout the day were:

Peter Austin (72)

Hemanth Akula (58)

Richie Gemmell (58)

Robert Dunne (51no)

Cohen StewartStewart (84)

Jack Kneebone (47no)

Bakhtullah Khawrin (3 for 18)

A big thank you for Andrew McLean and Jackson Foster for umpiring. Superb job lads.

Many thanks to Cameron McLeod at BurgerFuel for supplying the lunches.

A special thank you to Chris White at Queens Street Cricket Club for contributing to the day. Queen Street Cricket Club is a kindred club based in Auckland and they are fantastic supporters of youth cricket. We look forward to working together in the future.
