Reed 4s entertained Wormley 3s on Saturday at Freeman College in Herts Division 13. The Reed team were made up of some of the club’s promising younger players, some experience and some returning players. Skipper Rob Willoughby won the toss and decided to bat.
Early wickets put Reed under immediate pressure. Josh Conley and Willoughby looked to steady the ship but were both dismissed for 13. Wickets continued to fall, but youngster Freddy Stuart batted sensibly and top scored with 18. Reed were bowled out for 78.
In the field the opening bowling pair of Joe Graves and Conley started well, and ended with a wicket each. Ian Roberts and Willoughby were then brought into the attack, Willoughby getting a wicket, with Roberts being unlucky not to get at least one. Sam Rice bowled one over, also grabbing a wicket, before Wormley knocked off the runs for the loss of 4, winning by 6 wickets.
