Lumberjack Rock Reports on Three From Three

[video mp4="http://basherscc.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/second-sunday-in-may.mp4" width="400" height="224"]

The bus brought the second load of passengers from The Camel to do somthing constructive and make a day out of the entire journey that was a good 45 minutes wasted.

We started with a Loss of the toss . Put into field by the Leopards, the Windies attack was brought into action. Quick four wickets in first 6 overs rattled the ranks of Leopards. Zeb and Biplove played through the rest of the first half extremely well and saw the score reaching 90. Kitbag finished with impressive 3 for 18 off 6 overs. It was all down hill for the Zeb’s harem after the drinks. Brilliant bowling by Pat ripped them apart. 3 for Pat off 6 overs for 25. Second spell, Swahili out of gas still could spew some venom to finish off with 2 for an expensive 37 off 6. Highlight of the day, the baseball pitcher turned medium pacer, our very own Tank from “God Bless America” finished the session on a hattrick with 2 wickets in 3 balls and no run conceded. 25 overs, all out, Target 150 for victory.

SCC AGM

You're probably not interested in this. Or maybe you just need to login.

BASHERS Representation in SCC – Your Nomination is needed!!

Dear ALL,

finally it is upon us where the SCC becomes an entity for the clubs….

The positions in the SCC are serious as we need people committed to making the club grow and willing to help out. So although many might feel that one or two are suitable, they need to realize that there is commitment required and its not just something to not take seriously otherwise we end up having the SCC become a joke again.

This is the change we all been waiting for so if any of you feel that there is a position you might want to run for or feel that someone could be best suited for, please let me know. Currently there is only one person guaranteed on the 2011 excomm, I would sure like it if we had another.

There are only 7 voting positions and Pudong have 2 with their president and Bernie rerunning for Secretary, Kapitelli has resigned otherwise they would have majority 3. Devils are pushing for the President role too, so that means if we cannot compete , they will have 2 also on the committee leaving 1 slot left (treasurer) for a Basher to get in otherwise becomes really tough to pass any changes.

So lets see if we can get anther eligible candidates to run.

Regards
Commitee
