In the girls competition, Carcroft Primary School secured their very first KS2 title, with their girls securing the trophy!

In the open competition, Richmond Hill Primary Academy defended their crown for the 2nd year running! Having beaten a strong Kirk Smeaton C of E Primary Schoolside in the final.

Congratulations to all the teams, over 130 children playing cricket last week across both days, absolutely amazing to see! Roll on KS1 this afternoon! 💜

We're back with a competition double header this week!

We head to Askern Welfare Cricket Club for our Year 3&4 Cricket competitions, with our winners progressing to represent Doncaster at the Yorkshire Cricket Foundation regional event!

Can Richmond Hill Primary Academy make it 2 out of 2 this year?

Good luck everyone 💜🏏

Richmond Hill take the trophy by the narrowest of margins!

Today we were back at Owston Park Primary PE and Carcroft Village Spartans JFC for our KS2 Girls Football competition!

We welcomed 10 teams to battle it out on a brilliant afternoon in the sunshine!
