Clean Sweep For Our Juniors
The toss was won by New Farnley U11’s skipper George Smith who put Gomersal into bat. With some tight bowling from Esa Shah (3 overs 2/5) along with many others, Gomersal finished 3 down with a net score of 268. The pick of the batters was Woodhead with 10 from 10 balls (2 fours). New Farnley’s batting innings got off to a flyer when Esa Shah hit 23 runs off 12 balls (5 fours and 1 six). Supported by Hasan Khan, Oli Lee and others, a fantastic penultimate over from Hodson resulted in 3 wickets and a close final over chase to come. However, Maxwell Swallow and Edward Long kept their nerve and batted out the final over, keeping their net score at 276. There was some incredible diving stops and solid wicket keeping too as New Farnley get the first game out of the way with a win matching our U13’s and U18’s.

This success spread through the team like wildfire as Lily Lonsdale, Artie Hoult, Musa Shah and Caleb Emmett all scored quick-fire runs. The pick of the bowlers was Neel Sharma who only went for 9 off 2 overs and New Farnley finished on the huge total of 196 without loss. The great start for New Farnley continued throughout the second half of the match. With wickets being taken quickly by Musa Shah (2-2), Max Swallow (1-7) and 4 others taking 1 wicket each, the only resistance in the Gomersal batting was S Shah (21 from 28 balls).

Chef To The Rescue
A huge shout out to our resident chef Michael Gardiner who heroically on Tuesday tea time saved the life of a man, seconds before the car he was in exploded into flames on Farnley Ring Road. Michael was driving on the Ring Road at around 5:45pm when he saw the car smoking, he wound down his window to ask the driver if he needed any help whilst everyone else drove past. He noticed that the passenger was a disabled man, he duly pulled up his car and with the help of another heroic man on the scene dragged him from his car into safety of the adjacent bus lay bye, seconds later the car exploded. The bravery saved the mans life.

There will be an assigned parent coming round with a list to check who has attended and to take the £2.00 (if you forget the £2.00, you can bring it to the next training and keep it rolling over).
