Kwik Cricket B Team Report

On Wednesday 10th June the Kwik Cricket A team went to the Borderers Cricket Club to play in a mixed tournament.

Our first match was against Claremont A. We tried really hard and won the game 233 to 215.

Our next match was against Rusthall. Thanks to Mrs Ingman coaching us, we won 210 to 209 so it was extremely close!

This meant we got into the semi-finals so we were all very excited.

Unfortunately we lost against Bidborough 182 to 247. So our next match would determine if we were 3rd or 4th.

Lastly we played against Southborough, they had one amazingly strong player who won them most of the runs, so we lost the game 189 to 272.

Thank you to Mrs Lewis for driving us there and to Mrs Ingman and Mrs Waller for supporting us and organising it.

Team; Olivia L, Sasha RW, Toby W, Fraser C, Nadine K, Thomas P, Tristan J and Daniel J.

B Team

On Tuesday 19th May, St. James’ Kwik Cricket ‘B’ team went to Bells Yew Green to take part in a tournament. Our first game was against Speldhurst ‘B’, we all played really well and got some good hits and the final score was 255, 253 to us.

Our second game was against Sherwood ‘B’, their coach was very helpful with our bowling as the ball was very hard and it did not bounce. The score was 221 to Sherwood and 232 to us.

Our next game was against Lamberhurst ‘A’. We were a bit nervous because we had not played an A team before. Luckily Mia did a brilliant bowl and bowled someone out. The final score was 203 – Lamberhurst and 219 to us.

In the fourth game, against Paddock Wood ‘A’, we played really well but unfortunately lost by 12 points.

We got through to the semi finals. The game to see if we were runners up or not went really well. It was against Speldhurst ‘A’. They had very good sportsmanship and were very encouraging. The score ended 219 to them and 227 to us.

We ended up coming fifth out of twenty teams.

Thank you to everyone who organised it and a big thank you to Mrs Lewis who looked after us throughout the day.

Team; Isobel, Bethany, Jessica, Mia, Victoria, Hannah and Alice.

B team report

James, James H, Chris, Adam, Oliver 6A, Tom P, Thea, Emma, 6α and Will 5α

We played a total of 16 matches and only lost one, by a few runs. Every member of the team should be proud of their performance. Will’s powerful batting sent our opponents running in all directions and Thea and Adam also did some great batting. James and Chris nailed some tricky catches. Oliver was an excellent wicket keeper and Emma and James both took wickets with their skilful bowling!

Ollie kindly volunteered to play in the friendly against Sherwood and played well.
