Cricket, tennis washed out

THE Surry District Tennis Association did it’s best to get underway on Saturday, however the inclement weather ensured that almost no play was possible. Lawn Purple player Nash Wollard is seen here warming up for his match against Lawn Blue which was called off.

FOR the second time this spring, Portland’s Saturday cricket competition has been completely washed out, while tennis has also suffered their first full competition wash out for the season.

Despite the best efforts of teams and organisers alike, heavy rain in the lead-up to fixtures, along with additional rain throughout the day, meant that not a single ball in the Portland and District Cricket Association was bowled.
