On Thursday 19th June the year 5/6 cricket team headed off for a tournament at Shaldon Cricket Club. It was a scorching hot, sunny day and a superb location to be in with such wonderful weather! We played our first 2 matches as part of the group stage and were successful in both, which meant we had a place in the final. We faced Ipplepen in the final match, at first we were a little intimidated by their overarm bowling and their professionalism. Ipplepen played impressively and were very good a batting but our fielding matched them and we were able to reduce their run scoring and also got some of them out! Our batting was steady and consistent. Unsure of the final scores, we felt proud to have played so well and had really enjoyed our afternoon. Amazingly, we were announced as the overall winners, actually winning by over 20 runs!!! Fantastic!!!
Well done girls, you all played really well and deserved your T Shirts and Trophy.
