The team played the third round of the competition for 2019 against Telarah Public School at Reg Ford Oval earlier this month.

Clarence Town went in to bat first and got off to an excellent start through the opening batsmen Charlie Jones and Jacob Head. After both Jacob and Charlie retired on a score of 25 Clarence Town continued to score runs at a rapid rate. Some strong contributions were made by both Will Barlow scoring 19 runs and Jentsen Brand scoring 11 runs helping to build a strong total.

At the end of the batting innings Clarence Town managed to score 167 runs off our 24 overs.

When Telarah started their batting innings their opening batsman were both quickly dismissed by Charlie Jones who ended up taking three wickets for the game. Clarence Town had several good bowlers throughout the innings with Jacob Head, Lane Jones and Aylia Head all chipping in with a wicket or two.

A special mention must be made of Mark Bates and Riley Flannery who both were able to take a wicket in their first ever game of cricket. Telarah scored a total of 104 runs and this provided Clarence Town with a comprehensive victory on the day.

In the fourth round of the Reg Kelly Shield the team was up against Thornton Public School at Reg Ford Oval.

Unfortunately Thornton were only able to bring a team of eight players for the game.

Fortunately Clarence Town players showed excellent sportsmanship by agreeing to help them out by providing some additional fielders for the game.

Clarence Town batted first and got off to a good start with runs coming quickly in the early stages. Tait Maytom made a strong contribution to our batting innings by scoring 25 runs and he combined well with Charlie Jones who managed to score 24 runs.

Nash Jeffery and Ewan Head also made strong contributions with bat as they managed to score 17 and 14 runs respectively during their innings.

Clarence Town managed to score an impressive total of 163 runs off our 24 overs.

When Thornton were given the opportunity to bat they quickly showed their inexperience as they struggled to score runs and their wickets were taken swiftly. Clarence Town had some strong bowling performances with Jacob Head, Tait Maytom, Charlie Jones and Nash Jeffery all getting among the wickets as Thornton were quickly dismissed for a total of 17 runs.

Once again Clarence Town showed excellent sportsmanship by providing some Thornton batsman with much needed batting practice, as some of their batsman were given a second chance to have a bat.
