Girls U13 Indoor League
As this is the first year for the U13 girls league we were overwhelmed with 6 schools entering the competition. Unfortunately Durham Gilesgate had to withdraw from the league, but 5 schools taking part was still an excellent start.
Darren Brown, Club and Coach development officer for Durham Cricket Board, was very impressed with the standard of play shown by a lot of the girls. So much so, he has liased with Durham City Cricket Club to arrange a new club especially for this age group. For more information on these sessions please click here.
Congratulations to St Leonard's school who are top of the league, after winning all of their games. We have really enjoyed running this league, and look forward to more fun next year!
