Congratulations to the U13 girls cricket team who won the Stockton round and qualified for the Durham county round in Stanley where they were victorious in their section, the semi-final against Dyke house and the final against Thomas Moore. The team was magnificently captained by Erin Bunford and between them they made 13 catches, took 17 wickets and bowled 5 outs during the course of the tournament. They really were a delight to watch and well and truly deserve the title of Durham County Champions of the U13 Lady Taverners Cup 2014. We are all looking forward to the regional round in Headingly. Well done Ladies!
