Cheviot and Leeston-Southbridge going head-to-head in country cricket final

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from Northern Outlook

Cheviot and Leeston-Southbridge will battle it out for top honours in country cricket's showcase final at Mainpower Oval in Rangiora on Saturday.

Defending CRV Ambreed Country Premier One Day champions Leeston-Southbridge have endured a mixed season, suffering when their Canterbury Country players have been away on representative duties.

A repeat of last year's semi-final nail biter, where Leeston-Southbridge pipped Cheviot by eight runs, starts at Mainpower Oval in Rangiora at 11am on Saturday. Spectators welcome.

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?

Poll: Would you take a 1.5-hour hike for a shop? 🌿🐦

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Canterbury, you have a hidden treasure right on your doorstep ... though it does come with a 1.5-hour walk up the stunning Rakaia Gorge Walkway.

Along the trail you’ll find The Fantail Shop showcasing small artworks by local artisans. Even better, every purchase supports the Fantail Trust, helping protect and restore biodiversity on the north bank of the gorge.

So we’re curious: would you take a 1.5-hour hike for a shop? (And for local biodiversity, of course 🌿)
