Team News...

18s Start With a Win!

The under 18s got off to a winning start at home to Seaham Harbour in the opening fixture of the season.

After a poor season last time round this was a much improved performance with a new look team.

Chasing 100, openers Dom Wales and Andy McNally made steady progress until Andy was bowled with the score approaching 40.

Chris Goudie joined Dom to see the innings through to a successful conclusion, the pair pacing the reply to perfection.

The seniors outdoor nets will continue throughout the season on Tuesday and Thursday nights @6pm.

Mixed weekend for 13s

The under 13s had an up and down weekend after their opening match win against Seaham Harbour on Thursday night.

On Saturday a fine performance saw them romp to a win against South Hetton in the league to remain unbeaten.

Monday however brought disappointment when a lack lustre batting display gave their impressive bowlers too much to do resulting in a league cup exit at the hands of Eppleton. Full match reports online this week.

Sunday sees a return to league action at home to South Shields, while the under 11s hope the weather is kind enough for them to get underway away to Shields.
