🏏 A Fantastic Day of Dynamos Cricket at Babraham Cricket Club! 🌟

Earlier this week, we were delighted to welcome 10 primary schools to the beautiful setting of Babraham Cricket Club for our Year 3/4 Dynamos Cricket Competition.

The standard of cricket on display was outstanding throughout the day, with pupils showcasing excellent teamwork, fine batting performances and some brilliant fielding skills in a series of highly competitive matches.

Teams competed in two groups, playing each other in a round-robin format before the final standings were determined.

🏏 Group 1 saw a closely contested battle at the top, with Histon & Impington Park Primary School and Swavesey Primary School Swavesey Primary School PTA both winning three of their four matches. Histon & Impington Park claimed top spot thanks to a superior run rate.

🏏 Group 2 was dominated by Thriplow Primary School, who produced an excellent display of cricket throughout the day, winning all four of their matches to finish unbeaten. Thriplow C of E Primary School

🌟 An incredible achievement for Swavesey Primary School! 🌟

Congratulations on maintaining your Platinum School Games Mark for the 5th consecutive year 🏅

This outstanding milestone reflects a true whole-school commitment to physical activity and school sport, where being active is embedded in the fabric of school life. From fortnightly sports celebration assemblies, to a wide range of before and after school clubs, and active lunchtimes led by dedicated sports leaders, every pupil is inspired and supported to take part.

The school also delivers a high-quality, well-resourced PE curriculum, underpinning their success both in participation and performance. This is evident in their impressive achievements in local competitions — including being crowned county netball champions this year! 🏆
