Marsden teacher, top cricketer
Marsden teacher and former Wellington Cricket Rep Andrea Stockwell played for the Governor-General's XI in a 50 over match vs NZ Māori Secondary Schools Girls at Karori Park yesterday. Andrea's team batted 1st, scoring 276, bowling out the Māori girls team for 170. She said "It was a really fun, competitive day with lots of young talent coming through. It is an awesome way to raise the profile of Womens' Cricket and especially the NZ Māori Schools Teams." Players from both teams were presented with Gold pins by the Governor General Dame Patsy Reddy and all players signed a bat which was gifted to the Governor General. It's been a busy time for Andrea as her Wanderers/Blaze XI played the previous weekend at the Basin Reserve vs a Governor General's Secondary School Girls XI. She opened the batting and scored 54 runs towards her team's total of 153 runs, securing a victory against the girls who made 107. A great summer of cricket!
