Cricket Success

This week 32 pupils across P6-P7 took part in the annual Holywood Cricket Club Tournament held at Seapark.

The boys competed on Tuesday and came up against tough opposition from Campbell, Gilnahirk and Rockport. There was some great individual performances but some closely contested matches went the other way with Campbell edging out the overall tournament victory.

BOYS SQUAD: Zach, James, Will, Jacob, Oscar, Rudy,Luke, James, Peter, Jacob, Fraser, James, Harry, Ben, Isaac and Ethan

The girls tournament took place today and they found themselves up against formidable opposition from Penrhyn, Gilnahrik and Rockport. There was great sportsmanship, cohesion and team spirit on display from the entire squad throughout the duration of the competition. In some tightly contested fixtures there were moments of brilliance behind the bat and some super fielding that led the team to the final to compete for some silverware. In a wonderful game HPS came out on top against Penrhyn and were crowned Cricket Champions 2023 for the 2nd year running! What an amazing achievement to all involved!

GIRLS SQUAD: Clara, Sophia, Martha, Katie, Ruby, Eve, Isobel, Polly, Amber, Grace, Marcia, Charlotte, Skye, Natasha, Charlotte and Emma

A special thank you to Mrs Harper for kindly giving up her time (even on her day off) to help facilitate the fixtures and make the event possible. A big thank you again to all the parent helpers for their continued support throughout the year!
