Rain Scuppers County Cricket Final

A much changed group of cricketers made their way off to Warrington Cricket Club in search of the County title on the 15th July. We welcomed Caleb and Bryn to the group and also our new coach and umpire, Mason. Our first game was played under overcast skies and we put in a spirited performance against a strong Greenbank side, ultimately coming up short in a tight contest. It was wonderful to see the happiness of the new players as they scored their first runs for the school and they enjoyed themselves.

Our second game was against Samuel Laycock school and, following an excellent batting performance from Clare Mount, the rain began to fall heavily just one over into the reply from the opposition.

Lunch was taken early but sadly it was to be the end of the proceedings and we left the abandoned tournament having lunched well watching how the professionals play on the big screen, with the boys keen to learn from England and Pakistan.

Thanks to Mrs Stephenson for driving us again and also to Cheshire Cricket Board and Warrington Sports Club for their hospitality. Finally, thank you to the players and my assistant Mason. I am immensely proud of all the representatives of our school in cricket this season and can't wait to start the indoor season with in September.
