Cricket
In the second round of the T20 competition Guyra 2nds came out on top in their game against Hillgrove. Guyra won the toss and decided that bowling was the best option, a decision which proved a winner.
Hillgrove made 7/114 off their 20 overs. Wicket takers were Brendan Landsborough 1/28, Tahmani Landsborough 1/22, Heath Dowsett 2/16. Emory Levy 1/7 and Kylan Levy-Cutmore 2/17.
In reply, Guyra got off to a shaky start to be 2/12 before Charlie White (50 n.o.) and Kylan Levy-Cutmore (44) came together to put on 83 for the third wicket. Guyra finished on 3/118 and are the only team to get a second win in the competition.
In other games Easts Green 6/110 defeated Walcha/Uralla 7/107 and Easts Yellow 1/174 defeated City/UNE 8/162.
In the third grade game Guyra’s only win for the day was the toss. Batting first only Craig Lockyer (29) and Steve McElroy (11) got to double figures in the team’s total of 9/65.
In reply City/UNE also found the going tough, but managed to get the win in the final over finishing with 5/66. Wickets were taken by Tommy Mitchell 2/8, Cooper Brennan 1/15, Colin Connors 1/11 and Tom Lockyer 1/9.
The competition will take a break over Christmas with the final two games set down for January 11th and 18th. Guyra will be hoping for a spot in the grand final which will be played on January 25th.

Vets Golf
Last Tuesday we had our appreciation day for all vets that supported our various district events throughout the year. We also had our presetations and celebrated Christmas with lunch.
It was a two person Ambrose and it was won by Belinda Lenehan and Robert Moore. Runners up went to Ian Taylor and Dave Bearup. Robert and Belinda, Custard and Wendy along with Jenny and Paul all won NTPs.
I didn’t write down all the recipients of the presentations for the year but congratulations to you all. Worthy of mention though is Wally Chapman who took out the very prestigious club person of the year award. We all know what a tremendous job Wal does for Vets golf in all aspects. A very worthy winner.
Merry Christmas everyone. See you in the new year.
