Last Saturday (22nd) the SAC U16s hosted LFP Morangis and the teams tied on the last ball! This Saturday marks the end of the first half of the Junior Cricket season and features the Parents vs Kids (U11s) and Lads vs Dads (U16s) matches.
The Junior Cricketers hosted the British School of Paris for what was intended to be a Twenty20 match on Saturday. With long weekend holiday absences, both sides were so heavily depleted that a double wicket competition was played instead, with local pair Finlay and Logan winning the day
The Cricket Section has been working with teachers from a local school, the Institut Notre Dame, to organise a practical extension to the classes they have had recently on the sport. The first sessions were held during the week of the 13th May and tournaments took place this last week so the children could put their newly acquired skills into practice. See the main article for photos and the children's 'Thank-you' cards.
Junior Cricket starts this weekend with the U11s playing from 10-11 am and the U16s from 11 am to 1 pm on Saturday. We have a good number of children enrolled already, but there's always room for more. If your child has always wanted to try cricket then this weekend is a great time to start. Details are on the website at www.saclub.org/children/junior-cricket.
The SAC has been invited to enter a U15 and/or a U13 team in the upcoming indoor cricket tournament at Morangis on Sunday 24th March. The format will be the same as the very successful tournaments they have organised over the last few years. Please note that the Junior Cricket information page for 2019 has been updated with revised conditions and calendar.
