On a dry but overcast evening at Radfield Hill the two U11 teams played each other in the league
With end of school discos and school plays taking place the Bees were a few of their regular players missing but gave opportunity for a couple of new player to make their league debut
Captains Dan Covey for the Broncos and Jacob Carter for the Bees did the toss and on winning the toss the Bees elected to bat
All batsman batted well with Freddie Corner top score with 10 and young Archie Covery chipping in a good 7. The bees completed their innings setting a target for the Broncos of 201. Top Bronco bowler was Darcy Carter with figures of 3 wickets for just 5 runs off 2 overs
The Broncos took the game to the Bees especially in the second pair with Jake Connolly teeing off with an excellent 22 runs able supported by Skipper Dan Covey scoring 17 runs
Bees stuck to their game but could not stop the Broncos who passed their total to win the game. Pick of the Bees bowling was young Archie Covey with figures of 1 for 14 off 3 overs. The wicket being that of his older brother Dan ! Oops !
A great night had by all – well done to all who took part in a very enjoyable evening of cricket
