We have a great crop of younger players who have been playing together under Ritchie Stace's guidance in the Junior ranks for the last 5 seasons. They now form the core of our Sunday Academy XI.
Pictured (left to right) are: James Duffy, Jared Cruickshank, Nikhil Malhotra, Yash Vora, Tom Smith, Max Newark-Symonds and Aaron Stace
..............................
We caught up with the lads over their pre-training 'Lunch of Kings' to hear their thoughts about the up-coming season:
'The incentive of pre-training pizza is upping our game and will surely lead to more wins' Tom Smith
'I think the pizza price will have the highest average this season' Nikhil Malhotra
'The shape of the pizza represents the amount of runs that Nikhil scored last year' Yash Vora
'I was impressed with the intensity with which the lads attacked the pizzas. It bodes well for a strong season' Aaron Stace
'If we all start shadow-batting in the shower, like Aaron does, we might win something this season' Jared Cruickshank
'In the words of Nikhil "If we bat well and bowl well, we will do well this season". What a cricketing genius!' James Duffy
'I found sitting here and eating these delivered pizzas was almost as easy as marking my availability for matches on the Pitchero app' Max Newark-Symonds
Cheers lads - and have a cracking season!
