Second place at the Year 3/4 CricketComp!

''I'm so proud of myself'' - Zaid Yr 3
'' I cannot believe I have finally bowled someone out!'' - Zaynah yr 4

During the week of Christmas madness, Clare and I took 10 children selected from Year 3/4 to take part in the annual Year 3/4 Kwik- Cricket Competition! They battled all the way through and came second place! I am always proud of the children no matter the result but I was particulary amazed that this team had overcome many challenges to become a really strong team . The three members of Year 3 Arif ,Zaid,Aquilah played like they were much older and Zaid and Arif have really impressed members of THYSF Cricket staff. Representing Year 4 was Raiyan, Aayan, Kamran, Fahim,  Mahera, Zaynah and Ishaq. They all worked so well as a team and that is something they have had to work on - but they really shone as a team, communicating with eachother extremely well. Mahera was an excellent wicket keeper whilst Zaynah was great team leader. She respected the captiain Raiyan but she kept the others in check,making sure they were in the right positions whilst feilding. Well done Zaynah! All of the boys from year 4 played well and Aayan had to retire in one game for scoring over 20 runs.

Good job guys! Keep it up!
