Look out Sixes... the sister team of the legendary Stuffed Beavers and newly formed Saturday Night Beavers hit the crease with a vengeance this year. Pumped and ready to go, this vintage set of fillies mean business - having the Ladies Cup firmly in their sights (along with the obligatory champagne, gin and tonic, 'cocktail of the day'... )
Cheers!
-
Adele Theron - SOUTH AFRICA
A.K.A. ‘Hollywood’. In addition to successfully managing her silly amount of global businesses, Delly acts as Chief Whip for the Beaverettes. In the true spirit of our brother team, she is at her best when organising ‘everything-but-playing-cricket’. This demon bowler has however previously blown her husband away (ooh er?!) in the nets and is raring to prove herself as a force to be reckoned with. Gaan kry hulle Delly!!
-
Amanda Richards - AUSTRALIA
A.K.A ‘Bermuda Triangle’. This Waltzing Matilda packs a bowling and batting kangaroo bounce on the pitch. Men have tried and failed to sail those seas and never found shore but luckily at these Sixes, this feisty longhaired guide is single and ready to mingle after ridding herself of her rather sticky-wicket ex-husband in a solid maiden over.
-
Ellis De Ruiter - THE NETHERLANDS
A.K.A ‘Mohawk’. Making up half of the Beaverettes’ Dutch contingent, our self-confessed clog wearer Ellis loves nothing better than smashing balls and is so confident that she “doesn’t need to run - I’ll just hit fours”. A dominant force on and off the field, she’ll whip us all into shape – as long as she leaves her cat-o-nine tails at home!
-
Jeanette Woelinga - THE NETHERLANDS
A.K.A. ‘Dutchy’. This feisty, fun and fantastic tulip-loving lady would have been a sure-shot bowler and supreme batswoman BUT she was the unfortunate victim of Thai target practice by motorcycle. She will however be at the sixes proudly wearing her ex-husband’s girlfriend’s clothes and cheering the team along. Injured or not, this bundle of fun will bring life to every Sixes party.
-
Joanne Robinson - UNITED KINGDOM
A.K.A ‘Vajazzle’. Seductive Mrs Robinson likes to wear the gloves when playing with the balls. As captain of the fielding team, she leads the tossing practice from the middle and guarantees some spectacular hand to ball action. This Sixes stalwart beavers with the best of them and can usually be found sobering up with a pint of G&T.
-
Lulu Coombes - BRAZIL
A.K.A. ‘Brazilian’. Our straight-talking, caipiroska-making, Brazilian Goddess Lulu is fighting fit and ready for action this year. Tall, fit and athletic Lulu has been training hard to make her mark. Although, the club has sadly banned Lulu’s bikini clad antics for the past few years (much to the disappointment of the spectators) she will no doubt be flashing her amazing tan at every opportunity.
-
Maiken Hjulgaard - DENMARK
A.K.A ‘Bikini’. Our very own resident Viking milf, Maiken is a force to be reckoned with. True to her calling, her full name actually translates as “demon bowling warrior” - coincidence or just fate? Long time supporter of our brother team, her heart screams Beavers. When she’s not destroying the opposition on the field, she can be found tucking into some bacon and a few pastries.
-
Rachel Begley - UNITED KINGDOM
A.K.A ‘Landing Strip’. We are extremely fortunate this year to have a (non-pregnant) pocket rocket as our team cheerleader, spokesperson and fines adjudicator. Don’t be fooled by this yummy mummy’s calm demeanour. Once the game gets into gear, she turns into the flaming Animal from Sesame Street. Just be sure to not mispronounce her name as in true British style, she will then need to avoid you forever…
-
Roxy Castillo - COSTA RICA
A.K.A. ‘Foxy’. As a virgin to the Sixes, this bundle of Latino fun tells her husband she only ever drinks ‘two glasses of wine’ when out with the girls (?!) and has a propensity to get down and dirty to Pitbull at the first opportunity. We expect at least a boundary from you Foxy-Roxy… and progress to that third glass of wine ;)
