Northumberland & Durham Race Day
Join the Northumberland & Durham Lord’s Taverners for their race day at Newcastle Racecourse this October.
Tuesday’s U13 finals were also memorable as an all-female officiating team was appointed for the very first time for the indoor finals at Lord’s, a very proud moment.
Both days were extremely competitive and well supported by many friends and families. Standards continue to noticeably improve, with fielding really standing out this year. There were some outstanding catches backed up by excellent ground fielding and astute game management.
The Castle School (Somerset) won the U13s tournament with The Perse School (Cambridgeshire) as runners up, and Bede’s School (Sussex) won the U15s competition with St Swithun’s School (Hampshire) finishing as runners up.
Both The Castle School and Bede’s School went undefeated throughout the day and were deserved national champions of their respective competitions.
