Brendan Falvo was very happy to realise he was awarded as the Wicketkeeper of the Year for the 2024/2025 season at Cricket Far North’s presentation night.

“It just shows how much we’ve improved as a team, I think. For me to be getting the chances to take all of those catches, it shows that our bowlers really hit the spots this season,” he said.

“I think I had 12 dismissals more than the next wicketkeeper in 1st Grade, so I was pretty happy with myself this year in that aspect.

“It’s a credit to our team and it shows we’re on the way up.”
