The U13 team playing a 20 over match in the morning saw Carmen Clements (NDCC) take two good wickets, Kinna Yewdall (NDCC), Chloe Rose (Hatherleigh), Rose Ball ( Bideford CC) and Morgan Harrison Hooton (Filleigh) one. Libby McNally shone both in batting and bowling for the South scoring 21 not out and taking two good wickets. Daisy Meadowcroft (NDCC) captained very competently and steered her team to a solid victory. She l;ed by example with some terrific wicket keeping that saw only 7 byes in the game. Kate Williams (Filleigh) and Morgan Harrison Hooton along with Rose Ball batted solidly and the North passed the South score of 155 in the eighteenth over.
The afternoon 24 match North U15 girls v South managed by Sue Steart, was again brilliantly supported and very exciting. South Captain Amelia Wakeham encouraged her team and with Lucy Pritchard and Kayleigh Davis top scorers, the South batted out their overs to a score of 141. Millie Squire (Filleigh) was the pick of the North bowlers taking 3 wickets with U12 pace bowler Rose Ball taking 2. Kate Williams, Elined Davies and Carmen Clemewnts took one wicket respectively and showed the depth of bowlers in the North side. Tight fielding by the South made the North girls work for their runs. Lauren Bowden (Chulmleigh) opened solidly and Lydia Clements and Kinna Yewdall both of North Devon Cricket Club along with Millie Squire retired after reaching their target score. Daisy Meadowcroft and Eluned Davies batted well at the end and the North passed the South total of 141 with 6 overs to spare. The campaign continues next weekend with matches against West Devon in Plymouth.
