Stirling and Lobethal cricket premiers

1 min read

There was plenty to cheer about for Stirling last Saturday with plenty of appeals during the opening session of play against Scott Creek Ironbank.

Stirling Cricket Club topped of its 150 year celebrations in style with a dominant display in last Saturday’s Hills Cricket Association (HCA) A-grade grand final against Scott Creek Ironbank.

In a grand final to remember , Lobethal reigned victorious to win its fourth consecutive Alexandra and Eastern Hills Cricket Association title (A&EHCA)after defeating Hahndorf at Pine Avenue last Saturday.
