Manor Gardens Primary School

We will be holding our Mini- Cricket Fun Day on Saturday 28th November. It will be an opportunity for dads or moms to play in a mini- cricket match against their sons. Each child will get a chance to bowl and bat against their parents and vice versa. Depending on numbers, we usually have 8 players in each team where children and parents will bat and bowl in pairs. Each pair will have about 8 – 12 minutes (also dependent on numbers) to bat and bowl.

The attached files show all the players statistics & overall results of the mini- cricket played by the grade 1,2 & 3 teams this term. Well done to all three teams.

The grade 2 & 3 cricket teams will be starting mini-cricket matches on Thursday 31st October. These matches will be from 13:10 - 14:00 for grade 2,& 14:00 - 15:00 for grade 3. These matches will run for 4 weeks. Pupils chosen will be practising on the Thursdays before the matches begin & will be given a letter to notify him/her. Letters will also be given to those pupils chosen to play in the match of each week.
