Former Wee Waa Public School principal Peter Carrett posted the below on social media after the Australian women’s cricket team’s winning T20 World Cup match, on Sunday against India: “About 14 years ago I started a girls’ cricket team at Wee Waa Public School. Over the years a number of girls made the north west team. I think about eight girls that I remember. They were sometimes rubbished by the boys. But as the standard of play improved that stopped. I am watching the World Cup and thinking there must be 15 very proud cricket coaches who started the girls in the Aussie team. It would be great to know the back story of each of the players.”
