Summer sports have returned, which includes cricket clubs on three days after school every week. There is Girls' Cricket on Monday, Advanced Cricket on Wednesday and Cricket for all years on Thursday. We have been able to practice all of our skills, including bowling, batting and fielding. One of the best things about the Cricket Club is that we are able to use the bowling machines to simulate a fast bowler which has challenged us. We played well and won our Year 8 match against Isleworth and Syon, so we hope we can win our next three matches. The next two home matches are Year 8 and Year 10 against The Heathland School. They have strong teams, but Heston are stronger due to the support the School has provided for us with our new outdoor cricket nets. Also, the extra sessions with Middlesex coaches have really helped us improve our batting and bowling.

Come and have a go as it is really fun.
