Just not cricket? Jude names squad for upcoming clash of the Pembrokes

cricket_thumb

The biggest cricketing fixture in this part of the world takes place on July 9th in Pembroke Cricket ground @6pm. Pembroke Wanderers Hockey Club cricket players take on the best of Pembroke Cricket Club in this annual 20/20 fixture! With a year’s bragging rights up for grabs, competition will be fierce and all friendship put on hold until at least after tea-time.

Captain Jude Hayward has named a strong squad today – speaking to Cricketing Wired this morning she described Pembroke’s chances as being fair to middling. Clearly not wanting to give much away Jude observed “there is a good chance Pembroke could win this thing”. Ambiguous speculation or just mind games from Hayward?

Captain Hayward lamented the unavailability of President Dee Mackay – unavoidably away at a training camp with Crazy Golf Ireland, but with some useful talent in the ranks Pembroke (hockey) could pull off a shock win – weather permitting (rain and more rain).

The Pembroke Ladies Hockey Cricket Squad in full is:

Sandra Ryan
Carole Cromer
Karen McCarthy
Jude Hayward (c)
Jen Tutty Ryan
Emer Ryan
Susan Ryan
Lynzer-Buttress-Taylor
Becca Gallagher
Ciara Hughes
Susanne Kineally
unavailable: Dee McKay Ryan

The girls have issued a rallying call for support on the day with Hayward promising one of her trademark cucumber sandwiches for everybody in the audience.
