Romande Cup U11 Report
by Michael Hall
The last outdoor event of the year is the Romande Cup, and this year the U11 event was hosted at Cossonay on Saturday 30th September 2017 and saw three teams play a 20 over competition for the cup.
The weather started bright and dry, and a quick outfield saw good value for the shots. Unfortunately the last match had to be abandoned after 3.1 overs of ZCCC’s run chase with the heavens opening. Using a points system (or the head to head), ZCCC were awarded the cup with Cossonay second and Gingins third. Some great cricket was seen, especially the fielding with a number of direct hits. Congratulations to Zurich and thanks to Cossonay for hosting.
