THIS years final was between the top two sides from the North and South Zones. Both teams came through the group stage with a 100% record with Hook beating Llechryd in the Semi Final and Kilgetty beating Neyland.

The Under 11s game is played in a pairs format and Hook won the toss and decided to bowl first.

The Hook team all bowled extremely well with very few loose deliveries although the Kilgetty team made steady progress with every pair of batsmen accumulating runs with boundaries and excellent running between the wickets.

This was a team effort reflected in the batsmen scores of Kiaran 11, Jamie 14, Dylan 12, Olly 10, Logan 13, and Madoc 10.

For Hook Dylan 1-5, William 1-21 and Oscar 1-11 and an excellent throw with a direct hit took the vital wickets. Callum and Manny fielded well for Hook to support their bowlers.

At the half way stage opinion was divided with Kilgetty pleased with an impressive score and Hook delighted to take 4 wickets and restrict the score as they did but aware of the task ahead.

The scores were level when you compared the situation after the first pair of batsmen with Dylan James from Hook scoring 17.

The next Hook pair included the impressive Oscar Willington who scored 24 with some fine boundaries with one six that cleared the spectators.

However, the equally impressive Jamie Keating, Captain struck twice for Kilgetty in that pairing to almost even things up at the half way point of the Hook Innings.

The other wicket taker for Kilgetty was Olly 1-13. The 3^rd pair of William and Dylan Goodridge made steady progress to take Hook to 268 with Arlo and Lewis fielding well for Kilgetty.

This brought Jack and Rhys Phelps to the crease. The pair advanced the score to 282 with two overs to go.

Some strong shots around the ground by Rhys (24) saw Kilgetty needing wickets from the last two overs.

The batsmen defended these well and chose their shots wisely to see Hook run out winners of an excellent game of cricket.

It was good to see a large supportive crowd who had enjoyed the evening of entertaining cricket.

In the presentation after the Match Martin Jones (Junior Organiser) congratulated both sides on reaching the Final with some Excellent play by both and Hook for their victory.

Both sides should be proud of their Junior sections. He thanked Hook for hosting the final including Phil Griffiths, groundsman, and afterwards the Club laid on Burgers and other refreshments for the players which was well received.

He thanked Umpires Simon Richards & Robert Ridge Scorers Jon Willington and Becki Badham who all contributed to the evenings entertainment.

Last and by no means least he thanked sponsors Colin & Angela John, Llewelyn Davies & Co Chartered Accountants for their continued and valuable support of Junior Cricket in the County.

It was also great to see Paul Webb County Chairman and his wife Janice and Nick Evans President in attendance.

Nick presented the runners up Cup sponsored by the Cricket Shop and medals to Kilgetty and Paul the Winners Cup sponsored by Llewelyn Davies & Co Chartered accountants to Hook.

Hook Team: Joint Captains Oscar Willington & Rhys Phelps, William Harries, Dylan James, Callum Nutty, Jack Thomas, Dylan Goodridge and Manny Davies

Kilgetty Team: Captain Jamie Keating, Dylan Sine, Logan Hall, Kiaran Sine, Lewios Rossiter, Olly Badham, Arlo Jones and Madoc Evans. Missing on the evening, Euan Gottwaltz, Morgan Chinsammy and Evan Jones.
