Prior to the presentation, Junior Blasters spent some time out on Varley Oval showing off their new and honed skills with the bat and ball.
Congratulations to all Blasters for their wonderful participation all season. Extra congratulations to H. Walls and L. Savage on their awards.
Under 10s also took the field at Varley prior to their presentation. Congratulations to all trophy winners in this age category including Henry, Dan, Nick and Aiden.
Under 12s saw the grand final being played to determine the premiers for the 2018/19 season prior to presentation.
Campbell & Freebairn went to the crease and amassed 79 runs off 16 overs. Most of C&F spent a good length of time out in the middle including Rocky, Leo, Myles and Connor.
For Staggy, Nick took charge and grabbed two wickets bowling, a wicket with a runout and then took a catch off Lawson's bowling. Zac and Evan also took wickets. In response, Staggy sent openers Lawson and Wes out to catch the total. All the batters assisted including Nick, Zac and Evan.
Staggy reached C&F's total with wickets in hand and a couple of overs. The match ball deservedly went to Nick.
The premiers received their trophies shortly after as well as a number of remaining players receiving awards and trophies for various achievements.
