UNDER 15'A' This has been a season of good individual performances by batsmen and bowlers, without the team record being very good. The best innings ofthe season was the 100 not out scored by B.Irons against Alexandra. The most consistent batsman was P. Rolt, who also showed great promise as an off-spin bowler.

The best victory came against Campbell High School,whom we beat by an innings. J.L.H.
