Fifteen teams were out in action for our first fixture of the season against Barnardiston, Brooke’s, Riddlesworth Hall and Fairstead House. There were some excellent and encouraging performances on a predictably unpredictable April day and we ended the day with a clean sweep! A great strong start to the season.
Huge thanks to the grounds team for getting the wickets at FCPS and FC up to such a high standard and to Kim and her team for such an amazing parents’ team tea.
