The 1st XI travelled to Desert Springs in Almeria in Spain during the first week of April to play in The Cricketer Magazine School’s Hundred competition against five other English schools. It was a novel experience playing 100 ball cricket, and not our preferred format, but it was great to get out in the middle to play competitive cricket with some early season sun and dry weather. The team won against Westminster, Bloxham and Dean Close, and lost to Canford and a strong Epsom side thereby recording 3 wins and 2 losses. Match reports were published in The Cricketer and can be viewed by following the links above.
