Look out Sixes… for a third year running the sister team of the legendary Stuffed Beavers will hit the crease with a vengeance. Pumped and ready to go, this vintage set of international 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
Our resident Agony Aunt and expert at making peoples divorces ‘less shit’ Delly, is back for her third year of Beaverette shenanigans both on and off the pitch. In conjunction with her partner in crime, Justin Beaver, Delly will be ready to dish out fines again this year for naughty behaviour, nonsense and ladies cricket ‘seriousness’. Newbies beware ;)
-
Amanda Horsburgh - AUSTRALIA
Tall, slim and beautiful – what’s not to love about our keen-as-mustard Waltzing Matilda? Amanda is out to replicate her wide-free bowling and boundary-clearing batting skills from our 2016 tour. This year, our dear Amanda is ready to party and will be the official Beaverette eyes and ears for the ‘Chassies Choice’ recommendation. Over to you Amanda.
-
Beaw Thatsanaprai - THAILAND
After years of tour guiding for the Malakas team, it is safe to say our (formerly) innocent Beaw has been well corrupted making her perfect Beaverette material. Beaw, last years ‘virgin turned pro’, will be whipping up a storm with her fast bowling and infectious enthusiasm. Those pesky Chassies tried to lure her away, but Beaw remains a Beaverette through and through.
-
Ellis De Ruiter - THE NETHERLANDS
Although ‘Big-Ball-Smasher’ Ellis has had a 2 year absence from the nets (blaming work commitments… excuses, excuses), she is still the Beaverettes anchor (wo)man. Her unique bowling style and fierce handy-work with the bat will set the set a red hot pace on the pitch. Off the pitch, this Dutch Beaverette likes making friends with Captain Morgan, although he is not very nice to her in return.
-
Jeanette Woelinga - THE NETHERLANDS
This feisty, fun and fantastic tulip-loving lady is a sure-shot bowler and supreme batswoman and was sorely missed during the 2017 tour. In addition to her expert drinking skills and bags full of fun and energy, she will be bringing with her a full size elephant (yes really?!) We welcome Jeanette back with big Beaverette hugs!
-
Joanne Robinson - UNITED KINGDOM
Dr Robinson is officially the cleverest person we know and is virtually royalty after her ‘encounter’ with Prince Edward. Our glove-wearing captain leads the charge with the complete package of brains, beauty and impressive tossing skills. A true Sixes stalwart, she beavers with the best of them and can usually be found sobering up with a pint of G&T.
-
Lulu Coombes - BRAZIL
Our straight-talking, caipiroska-making, world-travelling, Brazilian Goddess Lulu is back ready for action for the 2018 tour after a year of absence. 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
Long-time Beaver supporter Maiken is our Viking Warrier. Practicing her bowling skills through a strict weekly training regime, this maiden is out to smash some wickets this year - if not that, certainly her toes given her usual lack of any footwear. Demonstrating a slightly evil side to her persona, Maiken tried to poison the Beaverettes during the 2016 tour with some ‘vile liquid’ during the fines session. Not to be repeated.
