Massey Cup Winner Announcement



Stephen Jones has taken an extended summer break but has now concluded his annual task based on a formula known to no man. Actually, it’s a formula tried and true that North Harbour has used for years to select its top 12 players based on points accrued through performance (ie you get points for runs, catches, run outs, wickets, centuries, 5 wickets etc).
The winner of the Massey Cup for the top performing North Harbour U18 player of the ACA District Tournament is:  
CLAYTON FLOYD
With 105 tournament runs and 15 wickets Clayton has taken out this year’s cup. Congratulations Clayton! 
It may be small reward for Clayton having missed out on travelling with the Auckland Under 19s to tournament by fracturing his hip in a club game for Takapuna the day before he was due to travel.
Your cup will be engraved and can be collected from Stephen Jones in due course. 

To see who made the top 12 this year click here: http://northharbourcricket.co.nz/U17Stats.htm where you will also find a history of past performances at tournament by North Harbour players. 

Well done to everyone who took part and best of luck for the rest of the cricket season. 


Subsequent to trials for Auckland, and team namings, the Auckland Under 17 side became National Champs in Wellington and included the following players who played for Harbour in the Under 18 district tournament:
William O'Donnell
Nathan Banks
Cole Briggs
Ross ter Braak
Chris Groenink
Well done boys and special mention to Cole Briggs who was named in the tournament team.  (See stats here: http://www.blackcaps.co.nz/archive/seasons.aspx


Thanks to for the gifts given to me at the end of the tournament, much appreciated and unexpected. 

See you around the traps. Any volunteers for convenor next year? Please let me know and I will let Sue Woods know and flick you the files. We’re not sure of the format of the tournament next year but if your offspring will be Under 18 again next year feel free to give an indication of interest.
