Bath are National Champions
Congratulations to our U13's who today have become National Champions. They travelled to Rugby school to take part in the National Finals and were victorious in their semi final against Whitburn CC from the North East of England.
Skipper Fred Stappard and middle order batsman Sam Simmons both reached 30 and dutifully retired as Bath were bolwed out for 96. In reply Whitburn struggled against some good bowling with the wickets shared evenly they bowled out for 42.
