Yesterday saw the first of two Trial matches for the U'15 Girls age group. These matches are a great way to see all the hard work being put in by the clubs and by Cricket Leinster staff in the preseason sessions, all come to fruition.
Thanks go to the Cricket Leinster Coaches that helped out yesterday – Vanessa Kelada, Una Raymond Hoey and Naomi Scott-Hayward. A huge thank you to Pembroke CC who hosted the match and the training for the teams earlier in the week. Especially thanks to their groundsman, Dale, who provided a lovely grass wicket. Last but not least thanks goes to Peter Thew for arranging umpires and the official umpires themselves Conor McElhinney & John Ford.
North Leinster won the toss.
