U12A boys “Shine on the field” On Saturday 4 March, our U12A boys played against Springs Old Boys (SOB). At the end of the game, the SOB coach asked if they could bring on their 12th man to face a few balls. This young player has a hearing disability and cannot hear at all! He came in to bat and was bowled out on the first ball. Our boys then asked the umpire to call a no ball so that he could face a few more balls. He continued to bat, all while being helped and coached by our U12A boys. Congratulations to Mike and Ashley and the U12A boys for an absolute show of true sportsmanship! Well done boys, you have made your club proud.
