Big thanks to the Happiest Animals for our turn out Sunday 18/01 to play Pub Cricket in a balmy 30 degrees with the Rainbow Trash Pandas 🐼. What a day out!
As hosts, the quokkkas put on a feast fit for the occasion. Big thanks to Rev and Amy - many happy tums. All agreed that it was good to eat.

The Big Picture
Wowsers, this is the big one. The Aussie v UK Quokkas match up that has been in the making for about 16 years since the antipodean branch of the club started up.
For those unfamiliar with the history of the club, it all started in about 2003 while I was pretending to work in financial services in London and noticed an ad for an indoor cricket competition.

It was touch and go start to the game with the Quokkas struggling to pull numbers together to get the game going. Ami had a big night, Nathan was missed, and we had Geelong Gareth filling in with a bit of a drive on his hands. I received advice to ’elect to bat’ if we get the choice to give our team ample time. Alas, the Curtin were in a worse state than us with their skipper Brandon letting me know that they were slowly pulling in. They started with their batting innings and were generous to assist us with an 11th fielder.

The Big Picture
It’s already been a busy summer, with 3 YPCA games and a tour match (including a win!), so we go into this Sundays final YPCA game for 2025 with one eye firmly on the reclining sofa and thoughts focussed on the big mid-season training camp at the Bat Bar to come.

Five Sundays in a row that the day did not feature a lot of sun. It rained on the morning of the game with threats of further rain during the day. This reduced the match down to a 21 over game!
After losing a couple of key Quokkas, we managed to recruit the nemesis of the Nomads – Brendan O’Sullivan who the previous week had smashed a score in the 30s in under 20 deliveries! This may have helped push us to win against the always formidable Nomads.
