GENERAL BUSINESS
Welcome to the new team from Evolution Mining, who are joining the Corporate Cup for the first time, and also to Liberty Legends, who are returning after a couple of series’ absence.  Sadly we bid farewell, for now at least, to Suncorp who finished bottom of the team representation table with less than 45 runs last series and hence lost their spot to the new team.  Hopefully we may see them again in the future.

SYDNEY CORPORATE CUP POINTSCORE TROPHY
Conditions were quite good for run 1, with only the briefest sprinkle of rain around 1pm.  Despite good attendance the total points scored was quite low with only 8 teams reaching the 100 point mark.  They were led by ASX Xtraordinaries with 161 points, followed by Reserve Bank Magic Milers with 139 points and Westpac Trotters with 112.  The total points scored in run 1 was 2,734.

Congratulations to Laurie Coleman of ABS Moving Averages, who completed his 350^th run in run 5.  Laurie is one of the legends who took part in series 1 and is still going strong.  He had a long break from the Cup on family duties, missing series 44 to 86, which makes his achievement even more noteworthy.  He is the 38^th person to reach this milestone.  Congratulations also to Clive Fletcher of Commonwealth Bank Harriers 1, who became the 64^th person to reach 300 runs.

SYDNEY CORPORATE CUP POINTSCORE TROPHY
