Two of Redlands Tigers' senior players, Ryan Le Loux and Alex Kemp, showed their talents in the recent two-day home game against Northern Suburbs, who fielded a strong team including former Australian player Nathan Hauritz.
Le Loux took five wickets on Saturday and then followed up with a solid innings of 94. Alex also batted well and scored a well- deserved century as the Redlands boys continued their good form in the Brisbane Premier Grade Cricket competition.
Second Grade also had a convincing win against Norths, with skipper Steven Moss showing the way with a great innings of 114. Lenny Watt again led the bowling charge, taking four wickets.
Congratulations to the Tigers 5th grade team who had a convincing win against Norths at home last Saturday. It was great to witness this team in action and see the delight on their faces when they won.
The club's new net complex will be officially opened on Saturday, November 8 at 10am.
