Tanya Sen
Former Australian National cricketer, Charlotte Anneveld, held an eye-opening training session with the Singapore National Women's Cricket team and under-14 boys team in a bid to increase the level of play and participation in women's cricket in Singapore. She gave a number of beneficial tips and strategies and taught each player how to intelligently achieve the goals set in a game of cricket.
Charlotte assigned each player tasks according to their strengths and capabilities. She explained how confidence and a good mind set are the key weapons for any sports person. There was a positive and immediate change felt by the players.
"It is truly inspiring to have someone who has played at the highest level of the game impart her wisdom to us. I can feel that my game has gone up a notch," said Tanya Sen, a bowler in the Singapore squad. "We hope she comes back again for another awesome session."

SCA Women's League 2011:
Angela Moghe
The first match of the inaugural Women's League got under way on Saturday 16th April, 2011 at the
Kallang Cricket Stadium.
The league consists of three teams including two women's teams and one boy's team. The boys team named The Rubies, met The Diamonds which is captained by young Vritti Sethi, for the first match. It was a well-played game with several close shaves but the boys proved their mettle and went on to win the match. The Player of the Match award went to a member of The Rubies, Janak Prakash, for taking 4 wickets. The team work amongst the ladies was evident throughout the game and this holds well for the future of women's cricket here in Singapore.
The League will be played over the next few weeks with the final match to be played on 14th May, 2011. The event was graced by Mr Syed M H Kirmani, a member of the 1983 India World Cup winning team and a world-class wicket-keeper. At the end of the match, Mr Kirmani shared his vast experience, gave advice and encouraged all the players.
