After representing Queensland as a catcher at the U16 and U19 level, Lester was automatically selected for the Open team. She was the Queensland captain from 1983 and was a member of eight Gilley's Shield (Australian Open Women's Championship) winning teams (1975, 1983, 1984, 1987, 1992, 1994, 1995, 1996). Captain of the last seven. Lester was also a member of her club team, the Rebels, which won the 1984, 1986, and 1987 National Club Championships. In 1990 she was named the Most Valuable Player. First selected to represent Australia in 1977 as an 18 year old against New Zealand, Lester immediately established a permanent place in the team and represented Australia continuously over 19 years including 29 international competitions encompassing over 200 matches and five world championships - 1978 (El Salvador), 1982 (Taiwan), 1986 (Auckland), 1990 (Normal, Illinois), and 1994 (Newfounder, Canada) beating the four World Championship representations held by former Australian softballer, Midge Nelson.

  • Japan's Sunwolves Exit Super Rugby As Australia Bid Fails
    18 Established 1961 Sports Tuesday, June 2, 2020 Photo of the day Hamilton slams F1 for silence over Floyd death LONDON: World champion Lewis Hamilton criticised the “biggest of stars” in “white-dominated” Formula One for failing to speak out against racism as protests erupted around the United States. The Mercedes driver warned “I know who you are and I see you” as he accused his fellow drivers of “staying silent” following the death of George Floyd, an unarmed black man, during his arrest in Minneapolis. The videotaped incident has triggered unrest in several cities and led to an outpouring of condemna- tion from top athletes including Michael Jordan and Serena Williams. “I see those of you who are staying silent, some of you the biggest of stars yet you stay silent in the midst of injustice,” Hamilton wrote on Instagram. “Not a sign from anybody in my industry which of course is a white-dominated sport. I’m one of the only people of colour there yet I stand alone. “I would have thought by now you would see why this happens and say something about it but you can’t stand alongside us. Just know I know who you are and I see you.” Hamilton, the six-time world champion, said he sup- ported only peaceful protesters, not those who have looted stores and set fire to buildings. But he added: “There can be no peace until our so- called leaders make change. This is not just America, this is the UK, this is Spain, this is Italy and all over.

  • Sign on Dates for Cannon Hill Stars 3Rd February 2008 10Am – 3Pm 9Th February 2008 9Am –
    In 1945 the Cannon Hill Stars were formed and operated until 1948. In 1945 the side went through the season undefeated and were the first to do so in Brisbane. The major highlight was Ron Stanton, the halfback, who received the “Courier Mail” Player of the Year Award. In 1952 the current Cannon Hill Stars was reformed and continues its operation until today. Undoubtedly the club has maintained a much larger player base in previous years when teams were fielded in most age groups. The club maintains its objective of giving local youth the opportunity to play Rugby League competitively. It is hoped that, in the near future, this club will again become the hub of Rugby League activities for the Cannon Hill, Morningside, Balmoral and Murrarie areas. Their most famous past player is Wally Lewis but several household names like Bob Lindner, Chris McKenna, and Graham Quinn were also past members of the club. The Cannon Hill Stars are going through a major rejuvenation phase with the support of the Wynnum Manly Leagues and the Wynnum Manly Seagulls R.L.F.C. • A major upgrade of the playing field • Renovations to the clubhouse • Changes to the structure of the club‘s board Sign on Dates for Cannon Hill Stars rd 3 February 2008 10am – 3pm th 9 February 2008 9am – 1pm Young Players will receive...
