The under 10s had a win first up of 134 to 52 with Blake Halls hitting 22, Jai Halls 15 and Isaac King 0/3.

In the under 12s the Blues kept Bomaderry at 7/131, and the Golds scored 101 in their game against Batemans Bay.

Eli King and Jake Town both scored 20 and then had the Bay at 1/45 with Sam England getting the wicket.

In the 14s Dale Ramsden (28) and Brad Peek (18) helped Ulladulla to 7/128 against North Nowra-Cambewarra Blues.

And the 16s at Batemans Bay racked up 8/243 with Kyle Jarrett (82 n.o), Matt Gilkes (63) and Brad Field (34).

The 12s Golds have some work to do, but all others sides are in a good position for next week.

THE Gilkes Electrical under 10s played their first game of the season on Saturday at Huskisson Oval against Bay and Basin.

With nine of the 11 players playing their first game it was going to be interesting to see if they could pick up the new format in cricket.

But they quickly adjusted and it was impressive to see the whole side running between wickets.

Ulladulla bowled first and Daniel Mansour and Ben Clough bowled tight, with Dan getting a wicket in his third over.

Blake Halls did a great job behind the stumps and also bowled with great accuracy for his first wicket.

Marcella Mansour took Ulladulla’s first wicket of the season, and she was very accurate.

Ryan Gilkes was a bit astray in his first over, but tightened it up lovely after that to get a nice clean bowled.

Rhys Robertson learned a lot with the ball, and put in a great effort, and was followed by Jai Halls, who finished with 0/1 off two overs.

Ben Clough took a miracle caught behind from a thick edge, that was a real treat to see, and this rounded off a great game for him. 

Issaac King could not get the smile off his face with some accurate bowling, and Bryce Smith followed him with little training but good lines.

Harry and Eliza Cornock had similar figures and got involved in the field to restrict Basin to 52.

Jai and Harry opened the batting with an amazing 25 start and Dan and Marcella followed this with 19 and as brother and sister, never argued once.

Ryan and Rhys put on 24 with Ryan hitting the first four of the year, but the running of Rhys was very good.

Ben and Issaac then put on 25 in a wonderful piece of batting.

Blake and Eliza then top scored with 26 with Blake hitting an incredible four fours in four balls.

The final pair Jai and Bryce then grabbed 16 at the end for an amazing team effort of 134.

THE golds travelled to Surfside Batemans Bay with only eight players as a couple were out injured or away.

Batemans Bay won the toss and sent Ulladulla in.

Reilly Jarrett was looking good before getting himself caught out.

Coach Shane Ishwerwood had instilled in the players the importance of keeping the ball down and valuing their wicket as most of these players had just moved up from last year’s modified version.

All of the batsmen showed a tremendous amount of patience allowing the extras to mount up and just picking off the bad deliveries when needed.

Jake Town and Eli King put on a great partnership, both scoring 20 each. In the end Ulladulla tallied 101.

Batemans Bay were 1/48 at the close of play.

With two Ulladulla players back next week, the team will need to take wickets if they hope to steal this one, but the effort the players showed means anything is possible for them this season.

Bakers Delight player of the week - Eli King.
