Rising Star Super Kings vs. The Marriott

Today was a BIG day here at Rising Star!  This was a day that they have been preparing for and looking forward to for a long time.   The Marriott Crew came and fed them an awesome lunch and challenged the boys to a cricket match. 

The Rising Star team named themselves after the Chennai Cricket Team.  The Chennai Super Kings.  They all bought their jersey out of the Star Store over the past few weeks to wear for this match.  They were all matching in their yellow shirts and back pants.  

Here the team is getting ready by eating a hearty lunch!


After lunch everyone converged on the cricket field and watched the two teams warm up.

The Rising Star Coaches talked strategy.



The game started and the Rising Star Super Kings are hitting first.




Arun



Ismail and Krishnamoorthy



At one point Ismail was picked up by the other team and removed from the pitch because he was playing too well. 


He then proceeded to get more runs for his team!



Joseph and Ismail running to score some of the last points of their inning. 


By half time the fans were ecstatic! The Super Kings had 50 points!


It was their turn to take the field.


Our scorekeepers.

Joseph was our last bowler for the game.


Here is the Marriott team enjoying the sideline with the Rising Star Kids.

The big question is ....  WHO WON?

Rising Star Super Kings were able to hang onto their lead and beat the Marriott team.



And the crowed goes wild!






Thank you to the Marriott for such a fun filled day!






 Rising Star's Super Kings!
