TEN years after the first event held, Mooroopna Cricket Club has again honoured a club legend, hosting its now bi-annual Kym Sugars Cup Day on Sunday.
An intra-club T20 game took place in memory of the former club premiership captain, Kym Sugars.
This year was extra exciting as it also honoured Sugars’ 60th birthday, which would have been in April.
Club president, Aaron DiFede said, “This is a great time that we can get around the club and celebrate a great player and mate from the club.”
The club has been hosting this in conjunction with local charity organization ‘Leading From Within’ since the inception of this day back in 2008/09.
The event pits club legends against players of the current generation of Cats in a Twenty20 game of the President’s XI and the Captain’s XI.
This year saw both captains, Aaron DiFede and Sam O’Brien take to the field for the first time in such a great event.
With Brodie McDonals and Michael Coad opening the batting for the Captains XI, the Captains XI won by 13 runs after winning the toss and electing to bat.
