Monbulk’s four junior competitive teams all had great wins on the weekend.
With two matches to go, all four teams are now a chance to play finals.
A maiden century to Jim Fenby (100no) in the fourths was also a highlight, along with wins to the thirds and fifths.
On Wednesday 22 February, the club is hosting a ‘Junior Melbourne Stars Clinic’ at the main ground, 5.30pm to 7pm, for all juniors, and includes giveaways, barbecue and group photo.
Next weekend is the last home and away game for our five senior teams.
The thirds, fourths and fifths are all a finals chance.
It is also ‘Ladies/Pink Stumps Day’ next Saturday (25 February, 2pm – 5pm in the Logcabin).
