U12 Win @ Home Vs Cheshire
Posted by on 20 January 2019
Nottinghamshire U12 county (shires) team achieved a well-deserved 17-3 win against Cheshire today. This was a home match held at Joseph Whittaker Mansfield.
Team members: Emma, Elena, Martha, Livia : Toby, Josh, Michael, Dylan
Whilst the score line is impressive, Cheshire provided very good competition and several games were “nail biters” (more for the parents) but our players held their nerve to bag the wins.
It is clear that the team, along with other squad players who did not play today, are gaining in confidence and extending their competitive skills. The hard work that these young players undertake during Outlaws and County coaching shone through today.
There were many games, rallies and shots which provided enjoyment to players and spectators, irrespective of the winning side. Our players are fair, polite and represented their county well. It was a pleasure to watch all games today and everyone played well – they deserve a big well done!
Thank you to Mick Newton, who provided great coaching and motivation to our young stars.
The next U12 match is local derby – Derbyshire. This is on Saturday 26th and availability invitations have been sent out. The team will be selected shortly.
