CRICKET

As we head towards the tail end of the cricket season here at Tiffin it ’ s time to reflect upon the progress of all year groups

U12s:

Under the watchful eyes of Mr Coules and Mr O ’ Connell the Y7s have made a fantastic start to their cricket development. The B teams bowling attack has consistently been a threat throughout the year, supported by some sound batting resulting in the Bs winning 8 out of their 9 fixtures. The depth of talent from the As through to the Es has created an atmosphere in which the boys are consistently pushing each other to get better. The season finished on a high with the As coming runners up in the plate final at the Reigate 6s tournament and the future is looking very bright for this talented year group. Participation this year has been fantastic in the year 8s! Consistently throughout the season there have been 60+ students at 7am ready to go for their morning nets session. Dr. Selig ’ s A team has made great progress this year both in their playing ability and in their mental approach to the game. The season finished strongly with a great performance at the Rokeby 6s tournament with the As winning the plate competition. The end of the season marked the completion of Mr McCann ’ s 53rd year in charge of the U14 As - a simply unbelievable statistic and long may he continue to impart his wisdom onto our students. Both the A & B teams have steadily improved throughout the year. Kajus has performed for the U15s sporadically throughout the year and contributed to their cup run to finals day, a fantastic achievement for himself and the team. Mr Marley had a very successful year with the A team, beating St Georges College and Epsom College en route to the Surrey Schools County Cup finals day., eventually losing to Cranleigh in the semi final before beating Reigate Grammar School in the 3rd/4th playoff to win 3rd place overall. A memorable year for a great group of students who have enjoyed their cricket throughout the year! U13s: U14s: U15s:
