Congratulations to Síbha Bhoja who has just been announced as the winner of the Harrison Cup for topping the Senior Bowling averages in Leinster for 2023. In what is in effect only her second year as a senior player [leaving aside a single game in 2021] Sibha’s achievement is remarkable. She took 18 wickets at an average of 7.94. Merrion’s W1 captain, Celeste Raack, came in third in the averages with 14 wickets at an average of 17.79.

On the batting front Polly Inglis tops the averages but because she is an overseas player is not eligible for the individual awards. Despite only being available for a limited number of the games, Leah Paul also appears in the top ten of the Leinster averages with 255 runs at an average of 85.
