Watching the cricket and final presentations

Patrick swapped shirts with a Darling Downs player. Me sitting in the players tent with Rhys.

Last day, wet day, another loss from SEQ

The team finished 7th and tried very hard all tournament. The boys got along very well and enjoyed the experience and so did the parents. Everyone is heading for home now! Patrick is on his plane and we are on the road near Gladstone. Looking forward to getting home and catching up.

5th and final day we're doing well fielding at 3 for 39 off 13 overs. Hopefully manage 50 overs each. Feeling weary after a full week of cricket and looking forward to heading home tomorrow.

Wet Day yesterday and a loss to Darling Downs

Patrick scored 14 runs opening the batting in a rain reduced 25 over game. The boys looked out of it with a score of 80 off 20 overs. Then a late burst from IGS boy Dylan who scored a very quick 51 got us to a total of 5/134.

The rain came and went, lots of waiting around and finally they finished the game on a wet and slippery pitch, in some heavy showers of rain. Darling Downs/Far West Qld only needed 107 off 20 overs to win and they did it with 3 overs to spare. The boys were pretty disappointed and they have probably lost their chance of winning the carnival now. They finish today with a game against Wide Bay, hopefully with a good victory.

Play back on. SEQ made 5 for 138

Where have the blue skies gone? The view from our bungalow this morning.

Rain delay on 4th day. No play yet . Having early lunch and trying for 1.00pm start and 25 overs each.
