A big thank you goes to all the parents who helped organise the Milo morning to go ahead.

We hope it's rewarding for all concerned.

Over at the High School the two Canowindra under 12 sides were playing their first competitive game in very pleasant and shady surroundings.

Vicki Grant's Canowindra Pharmacy played our newly sponsored side, Canowindra Newsagency.

We welcome Canowindra Pharmacy to the list of our terrific sponsors and thank Debbie and Graham Rice for their support.

We wish their under 12s, coached by Big Bad Mat Devlin good luck this season.

We also wish the Canowindra Pharmacy side good luck, coached by Ken "Man for All Seasons" McNamara.

WE have Ray "Clemo" Clements sponsoring the Milo Have Fun program, Ian Brown's Canowindra Produce under 16s and Canowindra Services under 16s also.

The under 16s competition starts this Saturday on turf in Cowra.

With all the Canowindra sides at home only Craig Rue's under 14 side was playing a competitive game away at Mulyan.

Craig reports a first big win for his team with some promising display.

This side is sponsored by Peter and Andrew Dawes Painters.

The under 10s were playing in their competition at River Park, Cowra where they can be found every Saturday morning.

The under 10s are sponsored by James Patterson Valuer of Cowra.

Canowindra Junior Cricket would like to congratulate Canowindra High School in winning the Lachlan Shield final played out at Condobolin last week.

This is the first cricket title that Canowindra High School has ever won.

This is a competition played between the various high schools around the Western Districts on a point score basis.

Most of the boys in the high school side play for Canowindra juniors, and under the astute captaincy of Alex Myers they brought back the trophy after what can only be described as a thrashing last Wednesday.

For the record Canowindra High scored 213 and bowled Condo out for around 54.

The boys played as a closely knit team with a lot of spirit and are a credit to their school, community and to their coach Bob Scott who is doing some good cricketing stuff in between teaching, or is it the other way around?

Well done boys!
