Former Colts Women's Cricket captain Elsie Thattil Pathmanathan, now Moore Park (Sydney) Women's Team Golf captain, led her team to a historical win in the Division I Pennant at their first attempt.
Powerful clubs and perennial winners like Concord, Monash, Killara, New South Wales, The Australian and Pymble were thrust aside as Moore Park continued its giant-killing run.
This inner-city club, with views of the city skyline, has now won the Pennant for six years in a row.
In the past six years Moore Park have surged through the ranks, rising from Division VI to Division I, winning all the way and during this amazing run Moore Park has remained unbeaten for the past three years in Divisions III, II and I.
Moore Park women's team captain Elsie described her team as "passionate, committed and hard-working" and admitted she was bursting with pride watching the women achieve this impressive result.
Elsie explained that one of the secrets behind this team's success was the support received from the board and general membership at Moore Park, rated one of the busiest clubs in Australia.
Elsie captained the Colts cricket team in 1982 against the Indian Women and also toured India in 1980 with her sister Clara Thattil where the main brunt of the team's fortunes were carried by them with some fine all-round performances.
