Here you can see a photo of the successful Pleasant Point JAB cricket team who won the second half of the A Grade competition in the 2008-09 cricket season. This competition is now split into pre-Christmas and New Year sections to fit in with school holidays and the changes to personnel, and Waihi won the pre-Christmas section.

The Pleasant Point boys posed for this photo alongside their coach Grant Kelynack and of course “the trophy”.

We will look forward to reading these names again in future years as their passion for the game and skills increase, and it is especially pleasing to see a rural community to the fore at a junior level.
