CASTERTON Sandford faced a tough day on the courts across all grades at the weekend, coming up against the well-oiled Millicent sides and with the pandemic striking several teams.

While the scoreboard at the end of the day read 10 games to nil, the outstanding debuts of two juniors in the Cats’ A Grade side and the versatility of players across the grades, successfully switching into previously untried roles, are all positives the club takes into round three, when it takes on the East Gambier Bulldogs at McDonald Park, after the Easter break.
