Match Report

Howling gail, rain, sunshine and dodgy light could not deny GCC U13's from becoming champions.  Skipper Morris struck first with his second delivery to dispatch Pwllheli's opener (1-16).  Cooper'S' at the pavillion end put in a gargantuan effort bowling against the wind also took a wicket (1-15).  Luke Sawney (1-15) and Charlie Maclosky (0-9) also battled courageously against the elements.  The spin attack of Jacob Roberts (2-3) and Adam Sawney bowling a final maiden over shored up the defences from the other end.  Chris Mullock showed his class behind the stumps with a stumping and 3 run outs leaving the opposition floundering on 65-8.  Fielding standards were good with Will Roberts, Lewis Williams and Tom Webb all playing their part.  Charlie takes the plaudits with an excellent low catch to dismiss  Pwllheli's dangerman.

GCC's openers Matty Thompson (6) and Jacob Roberts (28) quickly set about the run chase, with 30 on the board before the loss of the first wicket.  Chris Mullock and Luke Sawney looked rock solid as they worked the opposition around the field and kept the scoreboard ticking over, building pressure.  Luke knocked the ball over the boundary rope to bring victory to Gresford with 3 overs to spare.

Pete Evison presented the champions shield to skipper Harry Morris and Jacob was awarded the 'man of the match' trophy chosen by the umpires.  As the curtain falls on a fantastic season WELL DONE to the U13 squad from a very very contented coach!
