Credit to Viking Kvinner
Viking Kvinner also deserve great credit for their performances throughout the series. They fought hard, won two matches and pushed Lassa Kvinner until the final game.

The spirit between the two teams was excellent, and both sides should be proud of what they achieved together. This series showed that women’s cricket in Rogaland has real potential and a bright future.
Proud achievement, but more to improve
While Lassa Kvinner can be very proud of winning the series, there are also important areas to improve. The team gave away many extras in several matches, and this is something to work on in future training. Better control with wides and no-balls, stronger running between the wickets, more confident shot selection, and sharper fielding will help the team become even stronger.
At the same time, the progress is clear. Lassa Kvinner showed courage, learning ability and fighting spirit throughout the series. The players supported each other, stayed positive and responded well after setbacks. That attitude is just as important as the result.
A proud moment for Lassa and Rogaland cricket
Winning the series 3–2 is a proud achievement for Lassa Kvinner and for Lassa Cricket Club. It is also a special moment for women’s cricket in Rogaland. These matches have created memories, built confidence and hopefully inspired more women and girls to take part in cricket.
Congratulations to Lassa Kvinner on a fantastic series victory, and congratulations to Viking Kvinner for their strong fight and contribution to this historic series.
Team fantastic — proud of you all. We celebrate this achievement, learn from every match, and continue building the future of women’s cricket together.
