Some of the boys from year 5&6 took part in their first hardball match of the term on Wednesday 30th April at Uffington CC against The Peterborough School (TPS).
TPS won the toss and elected to bowl, meaning Copthill batting. This has been an area where we have worked incredibly hard on and this was evident in the match. All the boys batted very well, some hitting some lovely shots to the boundary and some good defensive shots.
Copthill scored 127 with a loss of 4 wickets, meaning TPS were already on 20 as they gain 5 runs for each wicket. Copthill bowled brilliantly, hardly giving away no-balls or wides. Copthill got 5 wickets and reduced TPS to 88 runs.
So with the wickets added accordingly to the opposing teams the final score was 167-102 in favour of Copthill.
Well done to all the boys who took part.
