After an incredible career spanning four decades, Chop will hang up the bat at the end of the season, leaving behind a legacy of commitment, leadership and passion for the club.

The day also celebrated a major milestone for Adam Balfour, who played his 200th club game. A loyal servant of the Cobras, Balf began in Korumburra’s junior ranks and worked his way through to senior cricket.

A promising young spin bowler who later took up the wicketkeeping gloves, Balf has also been a strong opening bat, including 81 A Grade appearances among his 200 games.

With the loss of only one wicket, Korumburra finished the day with 1/75, defeating Wonthaggi Club 10/74. With the finals now in sight, Korumburra’s big win against Wonthaggi Club has secured the Cobras a place in the top four on the ladder.
