NFJCA U16s on top form

<p><strong><span style="font-size: small;">njfca Boys on top form</span></strong></p> <span style="font-family: Arial;"><strong>22nd January 2017</strong></span> <span style="font-family: Arial;">The New Forest U16s boys produced two superb performances in the NatWest Under-16 Indoor </span> <span style="font-family: Arial;">Cricket League at the weekend to beat two strong sides. </span> <span style="font-family: Arial;"> </span> <span style="font-family: Arial;">In the first game they chased down Bournemouth's 132-3 thanks in part to unbeaten knocks</span> <span style="font-family: Arial;">from </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">Campbell Golding and Rhys Wathen. In the second game, Totton & Eling were seemingly</span> <span style="font-family: Arial;">in a strong </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">position recording the 150-5, the highest score in the league this season. The Forest</span> <span style="font-family: Arial;">boys however </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">produced a top performance with runs all round as they successfully chased down</span> <span style="font-family: Arial;">the target with the </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">final ball for the loss of just two wickets. </span> <span style="font-family: Arial;"> </span> <span style="font-family: Arial;"><img style="width: 504px; height: 649px;" src="images/stories/2017 nfjca u16 team.jpg" border="0" width="695" height="812" /></span> <span style="font-family: Arial;"> </span> <span style="font-family: Arial;"> </span> <span style="font-family: Arial;">Coach Martin Fisher is pleased with the boys progress:</span> <span style="font-family: Arial;"> </span> <span style="font-family: Arial;"><em>"Following the end of formal District cricket a number of the boys wanted to play together again</em></span> <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">in </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">the indoor league. So far, we are 4th in the league equal in points to third place. The games</span></em> <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">we </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">have lost have really been down to giving too many extras away, a total that has put us at</span></em> <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">the bottom </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">of the 'extras' league. The other areas of our game have been excellent which has</span></em> <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">on many </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">occasions 'rescued' us from the extras given away. The highlights so far have been</span></em> <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">the victory </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">over the Hampshire development squad and the double header victory over</span></em> <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">Bournemouth and Totton </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">(who team has most of the other half of the District squad). Connor</span></em> <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">Tompkins and Ben Fisher are </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">now on the list of leading wicket takers with only 4 boys having</span></em> <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">taken more wickets - and all these </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">four have bowled more overs. One batting highlight was</span></em> <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">Campbell Golding retiring after facing only </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">8 balls on Sunday having 'destroyed' the Totton</span></em> <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">opening bowling attack. We have been fortunate that </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">Bryn Wathen has filled in on a couple</span></em> <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">of occasions and in spite of being significantly younger has more </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">than held his own. Our longer</span></em> <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">term injuries, to Rhys Wathen and Jamie Ball have now, hopefully, </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">passed. If we can control the</span></em> <span style="font-family: Arial;"><em>extras there is no reason we cannot maintain or improve our 1 / 5
