In the weekend of June 8th and 9th in Skarpnäck Sportfält, Stockholm CC hosted the inaugural U15 Cricket Festival. It being the first ever national Cricket Festival for boys and girls under the age of 15 in Sweden.
In total there were ten 20-over matches played during the weekend as each team played each other once. The eventual winner was Saltsjöbaden CC who won all their games. That they were awarded 2 batting bonus points was an indication of how Saltsjöbaden’s strong batting performances gave them the ability to put the opposition under score board pressure.
Göteborg CC came in 2nd position, winning 3 matches with their accurate bowling. Encouragingly all teams won at least one game. With the bowling bonus (awarded for getting 10 wickets in a match) being the deciding factor for the bottom three teams.
