Weekend for Whaley Teams |

nullification of all results against them. The U11 Thrashed
Buxworth Sunday Morning and the 1stXI record a convincing
with over division one Hawk Green in the afternoon. |

| Yet
another, yes another HAT TRICK |
| Can this be
true I hear you cry, The U15 Played at Hayfield tonight
where Declan and Luke both scored 50's before they retired
and Luke went on to take a HAT TRICK with the ball. Well
done Luke and a well deserved win. 3 out of 3. According
to Gibbo "it's all down to the manager" |
| |
| 20/05/08 |
| U17
v Hayfield |
| The U17 entertained
Hayfield on monday night, and although they lost, it was
a truley superb game of cricket. Elliot and Luke batted
very well and Declan reached his first of what I am sure
will be many 50's. The boys batted correctly and I didn't
see one slog all night. It was a joy to behold. We await
the match report with baited breath!!!!!! |
