TRIUMPHANT Fernhurst Cricket Club junior section is celebrating another league title for its Under 11s team.

In the final game at Elstead, Fernhurst’s opening pair of Wilby Westley and Joe Skelton took the score to a respectable 19, but it was the arrival of Jack Kidd and Harry Cooper which really saw it accelerate.

Fernhurst finished on 229-5 and went to tea wondering if it would be enough.

As the Elstead innings commenced, Fernhurst’s question was quickly answered, as Kidd sent the bails flying with his second and third balls, creating an early hat-trick opportunity.

Westley secured two wickets of his own in the second over, which pretty much ensured the game as a contest was over.

However, the Fernhurst team were now buzzing and in no mood to take their foot off the accelerator.

Fernhurst won eventually by a resounding 189 runs.

Coach Bill Gourlay said: “Their teamwork, organisation and enthusiasm has been a joy to watch this season, which bodes very well for the future of the club.”
