ISA Rounders - Stafford Prep School Tuesday 14 June
A fantastic day in the sun at Stafford for the ISA Rounders Tournament.
The U11 team treated us to some fantastic consistent bowling from Stephanie and Liana and some awesome fielding from Eva who took some great catches out in the deep field. Evie was inside the boundry quickly reacting to any short balls taking a couple of good catches, Katherine, Ellie, Charlotte and Sophia all quickly threw the ball accurately in to 2nd or 4th post and Rosina at backstop.
When batting our left handed batters kept our opponents on their toes hitting balls in all directions with Charlotte, Chloe and Bella capitalising on this to score full rounders. Eva also managed to make some great connections sending the fielding team running.
We finished 5 overall out of 11 schools taking part.
Scores:
- Tettenhall Loss 5 - 6
- Birchfield -Win 6 - 5 1/2
- Edenhurst Win 7 1/2- 4
- Dixie - Loss 5 1/2 - 11 1/2
- Kingsley Loss 6 1/2 - 9
The U9s played a round robin tournament against six other schools on a gloriously sunny summer day at Stafford Grammar school. We started strongly with a win against Birchfield School, followed by two close losses to Stafford Prep and Tettenhall College (the eventual winners). A post lunch lull meant we gave away a few too many half rounders in our 5th match against Old Vicarage. However, the girls picked themselves up for our last match against Crackley and ended the day with a well-deserved draw.
Crescent scored rounders in almost every match, and they improved as the day went on. Some great catches were taken and nearly all of the team scored at least half a rounder throughout the day. We ended the day with 1 win, 1 draw and 4 losses (some very close). Rounders were scored by both Roisin C and Maggie. Well done all, we had a lovely day.
