Going back to 1994 here when a Kingsgrove Cricket Academy XI played against Loftus at Caringbah Oval. A good mixture of students and some of our younger coaches. 7 players in this pic went on to play first grade cricket, one played first class cricket and one has played Over 40s touch footy for Australia
