CAREW booked their place in the quarter finals of the Harrison Allen on Wednesday night (May 26) as they beat Narberth by 2 runs.

Carew won the toss and chose to bat first before reaching a total of 151-4 from their 22 overs.

Tim Hicks and Nick Davies shared 28 runs for the first wicket before Hicks was caught by Daniel Hughes off the bowling of Ben Quartermaine on a score of 20.

Rhys Davies came in and shared 30 runs with Nick but that partnership was broken by Ben Hughes who caught and bowled Rhys on a score of 10.

Nick Davies and Brian Hall then had another good partnership worth 41 runs as they took the score up towards three figures.

Brian Hall finished not out on 21 while Luke Hicks hit a four and a six in a late 4-ball spell to finish not out on 11.

That set Narberth 152 to win but they soon found themselves in trouble in their reply.

Hadliegh Luff hit a four and a six in a score of 13 but he was then bowled by Rhys Davies.

Shaun Whitfield caught and bowled Jamie McCormack and Davies returned to bowl Richard Adams to leave Narberth struggling on 19-3.

Jordan Howell and Kyle Quartermaine looked to steady the innings with a stand of 24 for the fourth wicket.

Kyle was joined by brother Ben and the pair shared the best stand of the innings worth 47 runs.

Kyle hit five fours and four sixes as he reached his half century before falling to Iori Hicks on a score of 65.

Narberth scored 21 runs in the penultimate over to leave themselves needing 10 runs to win off the last.

Ben Quartermaine picked up 5 runs off the first three balls but on the fourth, Quartermaine was run out by Nick Davies. His four and two sixes saw him score 29 from 15 balls but his wicket was a big blow.

Ben Hughes then got two runs off the fifth meaning they needed three off the final ball to win.

Hughes went for it but saw his shot caught by Rhys Davies to give Hicks his third wicket and the win to Carew.

It was another thrilling end but it was Carew who were celebrating as Narberth finished two runs short on 149-8.

MILFORD HAVEN BUSINESS CIRCLE is calling on the community to join the launch of its new Litter-Free Zone.

In partnership with Keep Wales Tidy Pembrokeshire, the initiative aims to create a cleaner, greener town centre while promoting environmental responsibility and community pride.

The event marks a collective effort to raise awareness about the importance of maintaining a litter-free environment and highlights the far-reaching benefits of a cleaner town centre.

The organisation says that a cleaner, more attractive town centre is key to drawing visitors and potential investors.

This initiative is expected to stimulate economic activity, benefiting local businesses and encouraging growth in Milford Haven.

The project not only enhances the town’s appearance but also instils a sense of pride among residents. By improving cleanliness, the initiative aims to encourage more community participation in local events and activities.

Reducing litter has significant environmental benefits, including:

Protecting Wildlife: Preventing harm to animals caused by ingestion or entanglement.
Cleaner Air and Water: Reducing pollution in streets and waterways, fostering healthier ecosystems.
Sustainable Practices: Encouraging recycling and proper waste disposal to cut down on the town’s environmental footprint.
Creating Green Spaces: Supporting the development of habitats, recreational areas, and improved air quality for residents.

The Milford Haven Business Circle believes this initiative will set a strong example for other communities, demonstrating the power of collective action in fostering a sustainable future.

By joining this movement, participants can contribute to making Milford Haven a shining example of environmental care and community cooperation. Let’s work together to transform our town into a cleaner, greener space for all to enjoy.
