UTS North Sydney had a mixed start across the lower grades to kick off 2024/25. Here are the match reports from the opening month of the season.
Third Grade
Round 1 vs Bankstown
First game of the year for the Bears, looking to kickstart our season with a win playing away at Kelso against a reasonably strong Bankstown side. After winning the toss and electing to field, the boys were fired up to start the year strong, well supported by 3rd-grade debutant Angus Miller and North Sydney debutant Lachlan Spencer. After a slow start in the opening overs, Lachlan Spencer (2-53) and Vrushab Kumar (3-46) broke open the important opening and middle-order partnerships. Yet, a few excellent innings and some clean hitting at the death took Bankstown to a formidable total of 300, a score well above par but not out of sight for some bears looking to score their first runs of the season.
