Off to tame the West

30 Dec, 2004 11:26 AM
The Southern Highlands invitational under-16 cricket team will tour the Riverina in January.

The highlight of the tour will be when the side plays Cootamundra for the Bradman Letter.

Coach David Woods said the side had played Cootamundra for the Letter, which was found in the Cootamundra Herald newspaper office and framed, 26 times.

"The Bowral side has won the Letter 16 times, with Cootamundra winning the remain 10," he said.

"We play five games in five days and previous teams have thoroughly enjoyed themselves."

The team is making its 29th consecutive tour of the region, with past players going on to play in the Sydney grade competition and even for NSW.

Andrew Benson, who is on his second tour, said that the tour is an enjoyable experience.

"Getting billeted is the best part," Benson said.
