The girls had a fantastic time and they fact we won one match and only lost by 7 in the other was a huge bonus!

5 U11 HAWTHORNS ROUNDERS The girls played 5 matches in the pool and it was lovely to play different teams. We demonstrated excellent fielding skills keeping the opposition scored down. Batting was hit and miss! We scored some excellent Rounders and won 3 out of the 5 games narrowly losing the other 2. This put us 4 th in the group, after a final play off match we ended up 8 th. This did not reflect the day as we lost by 1 Rounder in the pool stage to the eventual winner.

6 U8AB ROUNDERS Great paly from the girls with improved batting and fielding skills. The U8B team won their 2 matches easily scoring 15 ½ Rounders! The U8A team lost their first match however came back very determined to draw against St Christopher s. A great fun afternoon with lots learnt, well done to all who played.

7 U11AB MIXED ROUNDERS Amazing work from the U11A & B mixed Rounders teams both winning 4 out of 4 matches and qualifying through o the Croydon school finals in 2 weeks time! Brilliant batting and fielding form the whole squad, great work team!
