Stoolball: Tuesday [5th] saw the Mixed team travel to Icklesham. An opening partnership of 41 between Josh Lewis[29] and Sophie Turner[16] was broken in the 4th over when we lost three wickets with Josh getting caught, Keith Apps bowled the next ball and Ian Kitson [1] being caught on 44-3. JJ Boast [22] joined Sophie to put on 23 before she was caught and then Melinda Mackay [34] put on 28 before JJ was caught. Richard Apps [8], Jem Ahsam [10n.o.] and Diane Kitson [3n.o.] got us to 145-7 off the alloted 12 overs. The hosts reached 39 before they lost their first wicket and then another two went in Diane’[3-18] over while Keith[1-12] had the hosts reeling on 40-4 but a partnership of 102 between Kevin [70n.o.] and Shona [31] gave them certain victory but there was time for JJ [1-18] and Richard [1-24] to take wickets as the hosts finished on 163-6. This Sunday[17th] is our Mixed Tournament at The Cricket Ground starting at 10.30a.m. while on Tuesday[19th] we host Brightling and on Thursday[21st] we host Ashburnham with both matches starting at 6.45p.m.
