THE Glasshouse Cricket Club Tier 2 Women team has started their season strong, winning two out of three games, but coach Davina Stokes said the team is more focused on enjoying the game.
This is Davina’s first rodeo coaching a senior cricket team, but she has a unique relationship with her team as she previously played with the women and captained the tier 2 team last year.
Being the only senior women’s team playing for the club this season, she has gotten all her players to set individual goals to ensure everyone is enjoying their cricket.
“It was a surprise to the team that I would be coaching because I didn’t tell anyone as I was so nervous, but we worked out together what we wanted to achieve this season,” she said.
“They’ve all got individual goals, one of the younger players just wants to get a catch in a game, another wanted to get a run out, so it’s different for everyone.
“It would be nice to win a premiership but I really want to make sure everyone is having fun playing and if we also keep winning then that’s a bonus.” They currently sit in second place, with Tewantin Noosa just ahead of Glasshouse on the tier 2 ladder.
