Under 9s | Season Opener vs Bunbury
What a way to kick off the junior season! The Under 9s made the trip to Bunbury on Monday evening and came away with a brilliant victory, winning by 21 runs. With 5 players making their debuts, it was a proud night for the whole group. Every single player contributed with both bat and ball, as Northwich posted 102-5 from their 16 overs before bowling Bunbury out for 71. But the real highlight was the spirit shown throughout, loads of smiles, encouragement and support for one another from first ball to last. That's what it's all about.

Under 15s | Season Opener vs Middlewich
And they're off! The Under 15s kicked off their season in style with a home win against Middlewich. Winning the toss and choosing to field, the lads put in a brilliant all-round bowling display with 7 wickets shared between 7 different bowlers, a real team effort from start to finish. With the bat, ten boundaries and a massive six sealed the deal as Northwich cruised to victory by 8 wickets. A perfect start. A big shout out to the Under 13s who stepped up to be part of the side tonight. Well done lads, here's to a great season ahead!

Under 11s | Home against Holmes Chapel

Our under 11’s stepped up to their first game of the season at home to Holmes Chapel on Wednesday. With over half the team making the leap to hardball it was a lovely (but cold) night for a game of cricket. Northwich secured the victory through a strong batting and bowling performance!
Well done Team - fabulous start to the season!
