Bats Up For Staff vs Student Rounders

At the end of last week we rounded the week off with staff mounting the defence of their championship status in the staff versus students rounders competition!

Under clear skies on one of the hottest days of the year so far, the teams lined up with some spirited banter from both sides all under the watchful eyes of Mrs Rainey - clipboard in hand!

The students were first to bat, and took advantage of a slightly thin field  to expose gaps and get some great runs in. At the switchover staff faced a densely populated outfield, and some outstanding fielding from Harriette caught Mrs McCourt out at second base! 

Mr Torpey responded to the 'encouragement' of the opposition by striking a ball into the depths of Woolton Village that people are still looking for today. We hope no windows were broken!

Despite a little obstruction by some fielders the staff mounted a robust defence of their title and once again prevailed as winners!

Thank you to all of the staff and students who took part, both playing and supporting, in what proved to be a lovely way to end the week. We go again next year!
