U11’s win their first friendly

Norfolk County U11’s had their first friendly (Shires League Format) match at Sewell Park on Sunday 20th March against a Dereham Junior Club team made up mostly of slightly older juniors.

The match proved to be a very well fought but friendly affair with Norfolk U11’s just coming out on top 9 matches to 5. However the score belies the closeness of the contest with 6 matches being drawn (due to time restrictions only two sets played each) and 6 matches going to setting. It was a good opportunity for both teams to get used to competitive play against mostly unfamiliar players – except for George Le Bon who would have played for the U11 Team but who helped Dereham as they were short of boys. Well done to the U11 team of Oliver, Torben, Toby, Joshua, Anouska, Tanisha, Rhianna and Shraeya. Also well done to the Dereham Team of George, Scott, Chris, Emma, Katherine Megan and Jess.
