Players had the honour of representing their league over the summer holidays. The under 13 boys team travelled to Portland where they were supported with a large crowd on the sidelines. In round one, players remained steady - putting a total of 108 on the board for Warrnambool Gold to chase.

Some partnerships from the opposition were too hard to crack and the boys went down by 19 runs. Tobey Anson top-scored in round two when Horsham Cricket Association were able to claim its first win of the campaign, 23 not out.
