Sports Update

Our U13 cricket team represented Norlington at the LSCA Finals Day, finishing 3rd overall – a strong showing at a competitive event featuring top schools from across London.

Semi-Final vs Wren Academy

A nervy start led to a below-par 89/6. Wren chased it down with ease, finishing on 90/4.
Batting: Azaan (23), Ayaan (10)
Bowling: Azaan, Ayaan, Govind and Yahya all took a wicket.
Fielding lacked intensity and pressure was minimal.

3rd Place Play-Off vs Kingsdale

Much improved second match. Kingsdale scored 114. We chased confidently and secured 3rd place.
Bowling: Ayaan 3-31, Azaan 2-13
Batting: Yahya 20*, Azaan 21

Reflections

• Excellent overall result, but we let ourselves down in the semi-final.
• Key takeaways: composure under pressure, fielding urgency, batting intent.
• Lots of promise in the squad – a valuable learning experience.
