MIXED CRICKET
This week we had a home game against Hume Anglican College at Waterview Recreation Reserve. We won the toss and chose to bowl.  We trapped them with many dot balls, 2 amazing catches and 1 beautiful run out. Then it was our turn to bat. Karl and Hunter W had a wonderful partnership and most of our partnerships were really strong. Unfortunately, we lost by 13 runs, 67 to 80 going Hume’s way. Our team had a fantastic experience and a marvellous match!

GIRLS CRICKET
When we stepped out onto the field, we were excited for the upcoming match.  The other team chose to field first with us batting. It was an amazing game, with MPPS getting several wickets and Helma catching an amazing ball, stopping the other team from getting any extra runs. The opposition were really fun to play against and really challenged us to play to the best of our abilities. It was a fantastic game that ended with us just managing to win, we shook hands with the other team then headed out cheering along the way. 
Go Girls!

The game was lighthearted and cheerful. Both teams brought with them a positive attitude toward the game. Mernda Park brought home the win with 42 points over Hume 2. Congratulations Hume Anglican Grammar, you were a magnificent team to play.

MIXED BASKETBALL
Today we played against Hume. We passed well across the court and Hume put up an outstanding game against us and scored a whopping 26-2. Hume won. But the thing is that we all tried our best and had fun. Hume was amazing and everyone was great. At the end we were all tired because we tried our hardest on the court.

As the mixed tee ball team stepped onto the field ready to smash some great hits, the opposition walked onto the school grounds. The captains of each team came together to perform the bat drop. We were the first team to bat and Jason was the first batter to come up to the tee and… BASHH! One home run, what a hit.The other team was fun to play against 
We scored 41 and Hume scored 19,what a good game we all  played.
