Our U13’s are through to the semi finals of the Gwent shield with a good win vs Monmouth.
Catches win matches and Jack Williams and Alex Berry took blinders. Iwan Jones saw the team home with 37 not out.
☝️This evening, saw the first game of the 2022 season for our u13’s!
😁Some very encouraging skills on display from both teams.
🙏🏻Thanks to Rogerstone for making the short trip up to High Cross!
Our U11’s girls team are up and running and enjoyed a closely fought game vs Malpas last night. Tremendous to see the amount of progress these girls have made.
