Whether a batsman scores a century or a bowler takes five wickets, watching your stars light it up can be fun.

But, according to Orange District Cricket Council under 16s coach Dave Hunter, there's no better feeling than watching your side put together a team win ... one of those complete performances.

That's what Orange achieved on Sunday, winning the Central West Cricket Council's under 16s premiership, knocking off minor premiers Mudgee in a six-wicket win - the side's first title in four summers.

The game started in an unconventional way as the visitors sent Mudgee out to bat due to the uncertainty around the wet track.

"We won the toss and bowled because it was still a bit damp from the heavy rain," Hunter said.

"It was a fantastic team effort from us .... six of our seven bowlers got wickets and we restricted Mudgee to 8-131."

Among the wicket takers was Montana Griffith who dismissed Mudgee's co-captain on Sunday afternoon.

"I'm not sure how many winning Orange rep teams have had girls in their team," he said.

"It's something you don't see too often ... she got one of the key wickets for us."

What made the win more impressive for Hunter is that it was a role reversal on a mid-season meeting, Mudgee emerging victorious from their last clash.

"We certainly had extra motivation knowing that we'd lost to them only a few weeks ago," he said.

"We were very keen to correct that and the discipline we showed was really good."

According to Hunter, there were two key areas in which the side focused on at training throughout the week.

"We worked on picking out our zones when there were loose deliveries," he said.

"We wanted to know where we were going to hit it. We also focused on fielding and practiced our run outs. Charlie Tink got a direct hit run out on the weekend."

Speaking of Charlie Tink, he'll be one of just five under 16s players who will be available for the next campaign, meaning Hunter will have a task ahead of him for his fourth season at the helm.

But, that won't concern him as he's spoken ultra highly of the up-and-coming talent the town has.

"The future is certainly bright for Orange cricket," he said.

"You're going to be seeing a lot of these names around town in future years."

Hunter's coaches duties don't end at an ODJCA level, he's set to mentor the Central West Cricket Council under 16s in their upcoming campaign

Five of his players will take the pitch at Dubbo on Sunday for the opening clash against Western Plains.

"I was keen to keep coaching even when a few people stepped away ... I was the last man standing," he laughed.

It might have been four years between drinks for Orange but Mudgee hasn't tasted under 16s success in 17 seasons.
