Lots of cricketing activity again last week with the Year 7 boys playing Reading Blue Coat School, St Bart`s holding the first Year 7 girls’ cricket festival and Year 8 and 9 in action too!
Year 7 Boys’ Cricket
The Year 7 Boys’ Cricket Team played a close match against Reading Blue Coat School (RBC) in the County Cup. St Bart’s won the toss and put RBCS into bat first, and they scored 131 for 3 off 20 overs. St Bart’s scored 99 all out off 17 overs. A very respectable score. Players of the match were Yudeesh Balachandran and Ed Hancock for their brilliant batting partnership.
Year 7 Girls’ Cricket
St Bart`s held the first Year 7 girls’ cricket festival.
Thank you to our groundsman James Bloodworth who created four amazing cricket pitches for us on Luker field.
7 schools took part.
Our A team lost to St Gabriel’s School and to Park House School A. Our B team lost to Willink School and beat Theale Green School.
A big thank you to the Year 10 sports leaders who helped with setting up, packing up and umpiring (pictured in red above).
