The four Rye junior teams all recorded wins in the last week, as two of them maintained their undefeated records.
The under 13s beat Mersham B by 100 runs. Rye scored 179-5 in 20 overs as Mersham made 78-7 in reply. They lead the under 13 league with 3 games to go.
The U11A team are also undefeated as they beat Egerton by 54 runs with a team of young players, most of whom will play next year in this league.
The U16s best Tenterden by 10 runs. Rye posted 144-6 and in reply restricted Tenterden to 134-7.
The stand out performance was the U11b team. They defeated Boughton who previously had not lost. Last ball and Boughton were 4 ahead. A brilliant caught and bowled – 5 runs lost – pairs cricket – and Rye won by 1 run.
Next week Under 11A travel to Wye, the U11B host Great Chart on Monday. On Tuesday the U16s host Boughton and then on Thursday the U13s host Ashford.
