Cricketers celebrate a season of highs

The annual prize-giving at Amanzimtoti Cricket Club saw players recognised for their progress, performances and prowess on the field.

FOLLOWING its historic success in the KZN Castle Premier League and breaking through a 20-year spell without winning the league, the Amanzimtoti Cricket Club (ACC) held its annual prize-giving event for the 2024/2025 season earlier this month.

ACC coach Frank Ferreira congratulated the individual prize winners, and praised the club and committee on a fantastic 2024/2025 season.
