U11 Rounders vs. St. Aubyns - by Chloe Taylor (6W)

On Wednesday 5th May, Fonthill Lodge played a rounders match against St. Aubyns. In the first innings, we were batting and they got us out very quickly. Molly got three rounders in a row which was amazing. Quite a few of us got half rounders. When the last player was out, we swapped around. St. Aubyns weren't hitting very many balls and we managed to get some of them out at first post or second post. At the end of the first innings the score was 7 - 3.5 to us.

In the second innings we played well and we got rounders from Phoebe, Izzy and Amelia H. Georgia made an excellent catch to get a player out. The final score was 14.5 to 11.5. Well done to the whole team - it was a great game.
