It was wonderful to take part in our first cricket tournament since 2019 today, at the beautiful Whitburn Cricket Club. I’ve been delighted with the interest in Cricket over the last half term, where we have managed to develop three squads of girls from Year 3 to Year 6.

Today all of our girls had a great day and performed superbly in their first District cricket competition. The St. Bede’s A team won their first five games to storm into the semi-finals! They eventually lost a close, chaotic semi-final, but many of our young squad will get the opportunity to play again in future seasons, where it will be very exciting to see their progress.

Thank you to the girls for your dedication in training over the summer and for the brilliant parental support at Whitburn CC.
