2005 Review

In March of this year, if you had told me that we would have a chance of finishing the season with six wins and six losses I would have told you in no uncertain terms where to stick your prediction! But that's just me, the eternal optimist.

Yet, looking back at the injuries suffered in pre-season, all the no shows during the year, not to mention the average age of the team at the end of the season (although if you include Chris B. it does raise it somewhat) I really feel it's an achievement we can all feel proud of. Taking into consideration that we had to forfeit two games and lost one game by one run then the season could have finished completely differently.

We started the year as the Hitmen, a team with a very uncertain future, but we will be ending the year as part of a bigger club with the potential to be the top organisation in the country.

I want to thank everybody that turned out for us this year, Pete (still undefeated), Nick (snap! and he still came back) and the rest of the rogue’s gallery not forgetting our hugely promising kids on the up and up (and up and up in Stu's case).

Now that the building blocks have been laid lets not miss the chance to create something big and permanent.
