Daniel White Yr 3 was awarded a certificate for fantastic effort. He plays for the Halswell Honey Badgers and is in his first year playing cricket. He was 1 of 3 players who won a certificate from his team.

We asked Daniel what he likes about cricket.

---------------------------------

I like that I hit the ball quite far. My bowling has improved and I am getting better. I like both bowing and batting - a bit of an all rounder.

In my team I have my friends Fletcher, Flynn and Harry.

I enjoy cricket because it is fun.

Good on you, Daniel. Oaklands kids out there enjoying their sport.
