Up And Coming

Cricket at junior level has been receiving a great boost in the last couple of seasons with more and more boys taking an interest in the game. At both the Oval and theHarry Barker Reserve some hundreds of young cricketers turn up like clockwork for their Saturday morning games which, very sensibly, are under no duress as far as competitions are concerned. It is the game that counts.
