The local juniors are not about sledging each other or about winning at all costs.

Our Shoalhaven District Junior Cricket Association players just like to get outside, have fun and be with their friends.

All teams play the game in the right spirit - as shown regularly if a team is down on player numbers.

All the clubs are happy to help each other out and they send players out to field when a team does not have a full complement of players.

Sledging is not part of the game but encouragement is the theme.

Opposition coaches, when they are filling in as umpires, are always happy to offer up advice to all the players.

This wonderful spirit means everyone goes home happy and are keen to turn up for the next match.
