Northern Districts take on Wollongong CC in Round 3 of the CI Competition. 1st Grade are looking to bounce back from the round 2 loss to Corrimal and are at Hollymount Park East.
2nd Grade are at Dalton Park North looking to consolidate after last games outright victory over a depleted Corrimal. 2's this week but a vastly different team due to 5 players being named in the Illawarra 17's team, but credit to the clubs depth that we can field a team with the likes of Curtis Wilson, Toby English, Aaron McRae as replacements.
3rd Grade are in a very similar situation, with team changes and also coming off a big outright win over a poor Corrimal team. The challange this week is to ensure the guys have the right attitude coming into this game. Certianly the return of club stalwart Pete Cleaves should assist 3rd Grade to no end. Also the guys will be looking to Dave Joinking for more runs this weekend.
4th Grade on the back of the replacements are again a different side but no less very strong. Taking on rivals Helensburgh in what can sometimes be a spiteful clash, the Butcher's will be hoping the inclusion of talented youngsters Adam Van Wijk, David Bailey, Jorey Wilson & Lachlan Dunn can get them over the line. The ever reliable Craig Dixon no doubt the key with the ball. Also great to see Butcher evergeen Greg Martin ready to wield his County axe.
