Claire Koski has been selected in the 2012/13 Shooting Stars

Lend Lease Breakers players Nicola Carey, Claire Koski, Angela Reakes, Kara Sutherland and Keeghan Tucker were today named in the 2012/13 Commonwealth Bank Shooting Stars squad.

The Commonwealth Bank Shooting Stars is an open age program for players who have produced good performances either in State cricket or during the team’s tour to New Zealand last March.

“Players on this list are considered to have the potential to move onto the contract list, or meet short-term depth deficiencies that may arise from time to time over a two-year period,” said Julie Savage, Chair of the Women’s National Selection Panel (WNSP).

“The squad is a blend of seasoned performers and new talent. The WNSP is looking forward to some of these players making the most of this opportunity with a view to playing in future Australian teams,” she said.

Current Lend Lease Breakers players make up one third of the 15 player Shooting Stars squad which also includes Erin Burns, who was part of the NSW Youth system before joining the Tasmanian Roar.

The full 2012/13 Commonwealth Bank Shooting Stars squad is Jemma Barsby (Qld), Kristen Beams (Vic), Nicole Bolton (WA), Erin Burns (Tas), Nicola Carey (NSW), Renee Chappell (WA), Holly Ferling (Qld), Katelyn Fryett (Tas), Claire Koski (NSW), Beth Mooney (Qld), Angela Reakes (NSW), Megan Schutt (SA), Kara Sutherland (NSW), Gemma Triscari (WA), Keeghan Tucker (NSW).
