Great start to the season

Six balls to go. A seven run lead to defend. The results in the other matches in the tournament all going our way. Lots of pressure. Steely concentration required.

North Middlesex's Elsie, making her debut for the team, stands at the batting crease facing one of the North London bowlers.

Six balls later. A Elsie is mobbed by her team mates for her heroic efforts. She'd done it. We'd done it. And the whole team had played wonderfully.

***

Five teams competed in today's early season final. We started the day with a last ball defeat to a strong Bushy Park team. We then beat Ealing, a very young Finchley team and then ultimately North London. Given Bushy Park, Ealing and North Middlesex all won the same number of league points over the day, the question of which team was the overall winner ultimately came down to the number of runs scored. We had actually batted very well, and had not been really profligate with our wides and no balls, so we were crowned champions. We have a lovely piece of silverware to put in the North Middlesex trophy cabinet, plus medals and certificates handed out by Pinky, the Middlesex club mascot.

I would also like to thank all the parents who helped and supported today. It really was a wonderful pleasure to be enjoying such a fun day of good quality sport with you all.

North Midd are now the holders of all three current Under 11 Girls County Titles: 2015 County Cup, 2016 Indoor League and now the 2016 Lady Taverners!

And well done to the Team Manager Joe Kohler.
