Mercy Girls Build Skills and Confidence Through Cricket
Early in Term 4, two teams of enthusiastic Mercy girls took to the cricket field for a day of T20 cricket, playing two games and enjoying the opportunity to develop their skills and compete.
We were fortunate to have Sam Cunningham from the WACA join us for the day, bringing two new helmets for the College and a signed bat from the Women’s Scorchers.
Our College Cricket Captain, Amelie, was a fantastic leader, encouraging participation and creating a positive atmosphere of fun and learning. It was also great to see our more experienced players supporting and mentoring those who were new to the sport.
Congratulations to Isobel who took the title of Player of the Day by displaying the Mercy value of Courage throughout the day.
A big thank you to Angelo D’Agostino and Leschenault Cricket Club for providing the ground, equipment and match balls, the Leschenault Sporting Association for access to the changerooms, and our Mercy staff who helped make the day possible.
We look forward to seeing how these girls continue to develop their skills and passion for cricket.
