18 September 2023 Abingdon Sport Over the Easter break, 2 cricket squads travelled to India to enjoy the cricketing and cultural experiences of the sub-continent. Both sides enjoyed great success on the cricket field with some outstanding individual and team performances, including Oliver picking up his 1st ever 5 wicket haul; Jack smashing a destructive 80 in 50 balls; and Freddie’s unbeaten century, to name but a few. There were some incredible moments off the field too, including the eye-opening visit to the Deepalaya Foundation in Delhi, witnessing sunrise at the Taj Mahal, a jeep safari in search of tigers, the visit to the stunning Amber Fort Palace and some excellent haggling in the local markets of Jaipur! In April, the U18 basketball team played their annual netball match v St Helen and St Katharine school. It was a great fixture with lots of fun had by all. Well done to St Helen and St Katharine who won 19-11. I love cricket Basketball
