FESTIVAL: 05' The annual Bucks cricket fest was a bit of
a washout with only one day's play achieved. County matches on the Sunday, ‘Turn up & Play’ and
the single wicket competitions all fell victim to the ‘July
monsoon’…. it was the fourth year of the Bucks Fest &
the first time any fest days had been lost to weather… so
perhaps it was due. Nonetheless
it was a minor tragedy for
the continued development of girls cricket as the events have proved an
excellent introduction or extension of cricket opportunities for many
girls. 3 Counties Tournament…. Marlow CC
Bucks U13 B team: Liz B, Tiz B, Elspeth F, Ami S, Charlotte S, Holly B, Harriet S, Frankie W On Tuesday, the only sunny day of the
week, the Under 15s hosted a six a side tournament at Marlow Park
against Berks and Oxon and Bucks The
Under 12s & Under 13s hosted an 8
a side one vs Berks
and Oxon. The U 13 winners were Oxford, Bucks A were second, Bucks B third and Berks 3rd Bucks B 4th. Andrew Wheeler, the ECB Women’s Cricket Development Officer presented awards, to Sabah Hussain from Aylesbury CC, who took 7 wickets in the day and Chloe Lyons from Berkshire received the batting award. The All Rounder’s Award was given to leg spinner Fi Morris from Oxon, who received a special recommendation from the umpires. Bucks U15s retained the trophy with Berkshire runners up.
