The Kingsmead Mynahs schoolboy cricket week ended on Friday 9th December at Luther Field. Unfortunately the last game against the Crickets Club (Former Provincial and International players) had to be cancelled due to rain. There was however a Presentation held ,attended by the players and parent where the following awards and words of encouragement were given.

The boys were complimented on the cricket they had played as they had played against very strong opposition but had held their own in each game. They were also encouraged to keep improving and to play with the enthusiasm and dedication they had shown in the week.

The following awards were made to the boys:

Most Improved Player: Emile Collins
Best Batting Average: Joshua Masajada
Most Runs scored: Tyler Trenoweth
