Rockets: Today the boys wrapped up their final game of the season against Stratford. It was always going to be a tough match, especially being short on players, but a big thanks to Stratford for helping us field a full team 👏

It was a fantastic way to finish the season, with the boys delivering their best bowling performance yet!

Player of the Day goes to Zane for an outstanding effort with the ball 💪🎉
