THE FAMOUS NINE
View(s):
This time only a party of nine supporters made it ‘Down Under’ to watch the cricket happenings. All nine of them are supposed to be supporters of the Big Boss of the game. It is said that the game’s Big Boss had supported the nine for favours extended to him.
HUGE SPONSORSHIP
The game played by lasses with a net and a ball had a huge sponsorship in Ruwanwella recently. The BIG question is what happened to the funds that had poured into the campaign. There had been big spending at the event but no bills have been presented as yet.
WELL IN ADVANCE
A new head has been appointed to the running and jumping game in Ratnapura. This new appointee has told the Sports Big Wig that he has no clue to who had cast votes for him to head this important outstation post. It is rumoured that this outstation post will hold the key when the AGM of the parent body is held in due course. So it looks as if they are preparing for the AGM well in advance.
WHO IS MORE IMPORTANT?
All eyes are on the training of the girls’ team for a world event in Botswana. It has now surfaced that the officials for this contest was picked in early January even before the team was named. It looks as if officials are more important than the team.
HIGH ALTITUDE
On the same sport, the team had high altitude training at Nawalapitiya and even a House Maid was hired to look after the girls. It is reported 
that the Maid was paid Rs. 25,000 for the ten day stint and even cooking equipment was hired for the same amount without taking the required essentials from Colombo for the training sessions!
THE BADDEGANA FENCE
A new synthetic pitch has been completed for a well known sports complex in Baddegama with the help of foreign funds. Now the scene shifts to the construction of a fence for the pitch. Tenders have been called to build this fence. It is reported that infighting has already begun to build this fence as the amount spent for the synthetic pitch is reported to be in the millions and they expect the construction of the fence also to be also on the same scale.
