Lodge Takes The Spoils

Nature Valley Lodge School are the 2008 champions of the Barbados Cricket Association Sagicor General Shield 40-over-a-side competition. Playing in front of a relatively small but appreciative crowd at the 3Ws oval, Lodge defended what looked to be a mediocre score against 3-time finalists Ince Transport MTW.

Lodge, batting first, put 164 on the score cards, with valuable contributions from the bat of Renaldo Arthur who scored the highest in the contest with 55, Stefan Gooding who added 34 and Renaldo Holder who posted 17. The pick of the MTW bowlers were Raymond Kellman with 3-26, Junior Holder 2-28 and Henry Austin 2-30.

Coming in to bat, MTW would have been confident chasing the modest total set for them by the school boys, however this confidence was short-lived. After fifteen overs MTW had slumped to 58 for four and things kept going downhill from there. The next ten overs saw five wickets falling with the addition of just 42 runs, which meant heartbreak for MTW and delight for the school boys of St. John.

After 25 overs, the fate of MTW could have been written in stone, having meandered to 100 for 9. At approximately 4:20, the number eleven of MTW lifted a pitched-up ball to the fielder at deep long off who easily came around to his left, safely taking the ball and dashing all hopes of victory for Ince Transport MTW.

MTW were all out for 114 off of 29.4 overs. MTW Batsmen who got into double figures were Chad Puckerin and Raymond Kellman both with 20, Curtis Greene with 14 and Mark Bailey who scored 11. The pick of the Lodge School bowlers were Stephan Gooding with 2-17, Mario Miller 4-34 and Diego Stuart 2-19.

Man-of-the-Match honours were spilt between two players this time around with Stephan Gooding and Renaldo Arthur, both of Nature Valley Lodge School, sharing the spoils.

Nature Valley Lodge School received $8 000, while runners-up Ince Transport MTW received $5 500.

Lodge School Old Scholars Cruise 2K8

The Lodge School Old Scholars Association certainly did not disappoint when they indicated that The Coffin would return this year. Despite the inclement weather earlier in the evening many old scholars boarded the M.V. Harbour Master vessel in order to usher the the "Return of the Coffin".

I must confess that I too almost changed my mind after witnessing the electrifying lightning display overhead before leaving home. Nonetheless, I braved the weather and joined the others already gathered at the pier.

Shortly after departing the Shallow Draught Complex the festive spirit seem to grip everyone on board, it was as though we all wanted to let loose and release the tensions of a hectic work week.

Later in the evening it was time for prizes and also the "Coffin Ceremony" with Mr. Mapp of the ole school reciting the Latin maxims from olden days at the Lodge. It was definitely a memorable voyage, I am eagerly looking forward to next year to see what the LSOSA Executive Committee has planned for the 2009 cruise.

The paparazzi on board took several photos... check out the event photos and video on Facebook.
