Last Monday the U9s season got off to an excellent start with a close win against Studley.
Winning the toss, Ed Challis elected to field and some excellent bowling and fielding restricted Studley to 262. Harry Nuttal took an excellent catch in his first game for Helperby and Harry Tribe got a run out on the last ball of the Studley innings.
In reply a slow, steady start got us close and left Herb and Freddie Turner to get us over the line with some emphatic hitting lifting Helperby to 279 and 2 points in the bag.
Crucially, we conceded far fewer wides than Studley, so we need to keep bowling straight and at the wickets and I'm sure more wins will come; keep practicing the bowling...
Overall it was a great team effort, well done lads on a great start!
Also, well done to Jack Stabler-Langan who, absent due to chess comittments, has won through to a chess "Gigafinal" in Manchester! Good luck with that Jack!
