Summer Saints is our number 2 team, a mix of young and old, a few have played a bit of cricket a few have seen it on TV and the others will be found at the boundary bar having a cold beer watching the games. Hopefully we win a few games of cricket along the way, but one thing for certain is we will have a good time. A huge shout out to our sponsor OMG BAR & RESTAURANT Stuart and his team who will be re hydrating us before, during & after the games each day. You will also find us watching our number 1 team St Francis De Sales on their quest for CUP glory.

ANTHONY ( BLIGHTY ) BLIGHT 19
Anthony has been to the Chiang Mai Sixes a couple of times now, His BBQ, Talking and Drinking far outweigh his cricketing ability. We think we will need to sub him out for the games on Pig Picking night so he can instruct the Thai locals how to best cook the meat for the function.
-
CHRIS ( PIKEY ) PIKE 22
Chris has now played in Chiang Mai Sixes for a couple of years, last year playing for Darjeeling. Whilst his bowling was a little all over the place, his batting was what the crowds come to see, playing in our second team this trip, he should have the turnstiles ticking over. Possible call up to our St Francis team is not out of the question in a wicket keeping role.
-
GRANT ( TWEEKA ) SMITH 3
A regular visitor to the beautiful city of Chiang Mai. A great organiser who puts in a lot of effort behind closed doors to ensure the tour runs smoothly. A top wicket keeper in his prime (long past) and a handy spin (slow) bowler who may make an appearance if the planets align. A great bloke to have a beer with and a top man to tour with.
-
GREG ( TANGLES ) WALKER 6
The true gentleman of the touring party, a few years past his prime. Don't be fooled by this as he will cut batsmen in half with his line and length bowling. Will always catch you for a beer at the boundary bar or late at night in the OMG bar.
-
HEATH ( WOLF ) BLIGHT 21
THE BLIGHT CREW.
WOLF is the son of Anthony & Melissa, This is his first CM6's experience, he was penciled in to play in 2020 until COVID struck. Played junior cricket at St Francis De Sales CC and was back then a handy all rounder.
-
KOBI ( COBRA ) MAYNARD 9
Kobi Maynard has grown as a cricketer since his Chiang Mai debut in 2018 , so much so that we have handed him the captain's role for CM2024 at the ripe old age of 16.
The Cobra is small in stature but mighty in spirit, with chirp as sharp as his cricketing skills. Despite his diminutive size, Kobi's on-field presence looms large as he weaves his way through opponents with the agility of a serpent. Known for his relentless banter and lightning-fast reflexes, he's proof that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

MAKAYLA ( MAKA ) HALL 33
Makayla has a passion for sport like no other, her sporting expertise encompass many sports with Cricket, Football and Basketball heading the list. In all three sports she is playing at a representative level. In her spare time she is the best big sister to her twin brothers James & Nash ( Father of the twins Mattew Costello who has played in CM'6s )
-
RYDER 53 & CHASE 69
THE BLIGHT CREW.
RYDER & CHASE are also new to CM6's, they are both really excited to have a few games of cricket for the Summer Saints. These 2 lads have not played cricket at any level but have seen it on TV so will fit really well with a few others in the team.
-
ANTHONY ( BLIGHTY ) BLIGHT & MELISSA ( MEL )
THE BLIGHT CREW.
Anthony & Melissa are the leaders of THE BLIGHT CREW, or should I say Melissa is the true leader and Anthony will do as he is told. Melissa will be at most games unless dragged away for some retail therapy with Cassie & Nakita.
-
CAROL ( CAZ ) & SUE
THE BLIGHT CREW.
Sue is the mother of Ryder and Chase, her first trip to CM6's to support her children on the on the playing field, Sue is married to an Ex St Francis player from many years ago, her travel buddy Carol is always on the move travelling from place to place all over the world, sure to be the life of the party.
-
CASSIE & RYAN
THE BLIGHT CREW,
Cassie is the daughter & Ryan the grandson of Anthony & Melissa, there first trip to CM6's, I think Cassie is looking more for the shopping and markets while Anthony and Melissa look after Ryan. Will watch the occasional game of cricket with Anthony & Wolf strutting the stuff.
-
CHRIS & MICKEY PIKE
Chris & Mickey met around 9 years ago, and what an interesting 9 years it has been for them. With Chris travelling to Thailand on average 3 times a year to be with his beautiful Mickey, they have travelled extensively throughout Thailand. What the future holds for them is in the making.
-
HEATH ( WOLF ) BLIGHT & NAKITA ( BALLSEY )
THE BLIGHT CREW,
Nakita is the partner of Heath ( WOLF ) first time to the CM6's but like Cassie I'm sure the shopping and markets have a lot more appeal than the cricket. She will be there to support the WOLF at a few games throughout the tournament.
