The school congratulates Paris Crelley on her current cricket achievements. Paris has just returned from playing in the under 15 state championships where she represented the Riverina.
The following is an excerpt from Paris:-
"Last week I was lucky enough to head up to Sydney to play cricket as part of the Academy XI female team at the Under 15 National Championship. Academy XI was 1 of 2 NSW teams representing the state.
In our first game 2 weeks ago, we beat Western Australia by a substantial amount. For the next 6 days we faced some very strong competition, such as: NSW Metropolitan, South Australia, Tasmania and we were close against ACT/Country, when they overtook our score in the last over and the Victorian team only losing by 1 run. We ended up 7thin the whole competition, beating Western Australia again in the final.
The experience was amazing, meeting new friends, playing some really strong teams and receiving quality coaching. However, I didn't enjoy the mandatory ice baths that we had to do at the end of every game!"
