Six teams came to Georgian Gardens to take part in the Angmering Cluster Group’s annual stoolball festival. As usual the event was well supported and the field was a perfect picture of sport as the year 5 and 6’s played the
traditional Sussex game with enthusiasm and gusto.
There was accurate bowling, stunning shots and outstanding catches as the teams went through their paces, competing in mini qualifying leagues before taking part in play off matches. Each team played 3 matches of eight overs
throughout the evening. The noise and enthusiasm of the crowd was a reflection of the excitement generated on the pitch.
Matches tended to very tight affairs and were well umpired and scored by staff, who are now all experts in the ins and outs of stoolball laws. Many thanks go to Georgian Gardens for yet again laying on a fantastic evening of sport, which saw the undefeated St. Margaret’s carry off the special National School Sport Week Trophy after defeating St. Wilfrid’s in the final.
Final Positions:
Gold: St. Margaret’s
Silver: St. Wilfrid’s
Bronze: Ferring
4th: Clapham & Patching
5th: Georgian Gardens
6th: St. John the Baptist
