U13B v Orwell Park (Lost 17.5-20)
The team started well with a good innings of 10 rounders. Annie Paddon scored on every hit with superb left-handed shots that flummoxed the opposition. Beth Carnell also took great risks with her running which paid off to build up the score. RHS then fielded and, to begin with, kept the score down with composed fielding. Unfortunately, some mistakes then crept in allowing Orwell to capitalise. Annie Paddon bowled well and Morgan Thompson as backstop controlled the game well. With RHS leading 10-9 at half time it was all to play for. RHS batted again with Shennise Robertson scoring well this time and Lucy Wong sneaking half rounders when she could. However they only made a total of 17.5. Orwell were put under pressure to begin with and were kept at bay. There was some good fielding from the RHS team; Alice Killian on 2nd base was very secure and Nuria playing her final game for the School made an excellent catch. It was in the last 5 bowls that RHS let it slip and Orwell scored a total of 4.5 off 5 bowls taking them into the lead. An exciting finish to the game!

U12 v Orwell Park U13C (Won 18-11)
The U12s beat Orwell Park U13Cs in convincing fashion on Wednesday. Captained by Lucia Soler, the girls put in a solid first innings of batting, scoring 11 rounders, and the whole team got on the score sheet in some way or another. After some fantastic fielding and bowling the girls only conceded 2.5 rounders in the first half. By the end of the match, RHS had won 18-11 with standout all round performances from Lily Mason and Esme Peter, and some great fielding from Rosie George. Player of the match was Lucia Soler.

U13A v Orwell Park (Lost 39-16)
The U13A team played a game of ‘All Out Rounders’ as opposed to ‘Counted Balls Rounders’ at Orwell Park. The first innings was a close fought contest with both teams very focused and some excellent fielding from Millie Salter, Tilly Arulampalam and Libby Parker.  Tilly and Millie were the last 2 RHS players left in and they made it difficult for Orwell Park to get them out by excellent batting and speedy sprinting. The score after the first innings was 7—7.5 in favour of RHS. In the second innings, Orwell ran away with the match with 2 players left in for a long time and a cumulative score of 39 rounders. Millie Salter made two excellent catches, fielding at 2nd deep and RHS brought their score up to a credible 16 with George Nicholls, Holly Folkard Smith and Libby Parker being the last 3 players left in. The final score was 39-16 in a very different game compared to what the girls usually play. Player of the match was Millie Salter.

U15A v Langley (L 15.5- 16)
The U15A played against Langley School in rather slippery conditions. The RHS team made a number of fielding mistakes to allow Langley to score 9.5 in the first innings and they could only score 7 in their 1st innings. With 7 RHS players being put out during the innings through either hitting to the opposition or making the wrong decisions on running. The 2nd innings was much tighter. RHS fielded much better and restricted Langley to 6.5. Captain Charlene Tait made two very good catches. Going in to bat RHS were far more observant and positive with Cassia Peacock in particular scoring every hit by selectively placing the ball. However 5 players were put out in the last 10 bowls leaving Langley ahead by ½ rounder. Cassia was named player of the match.

The team then met Ipswich School in the final and beat them 6.5-4. Player of the Tournament was Millie Salter for excellent all round, consistent play.

rounders ball

U14A v Woodbridge (Won 13.5-6.5)
A great first innings, both batting and fielding, set the U14As up for a comfortable victory against Woodbridge School. Confident batting and secure deep fielding, combined with two superb catches by Beth Dwerryhouse, gave the side a significant lead of 8 ½ to 2 ½ at half-time. The team capitalised on their half-time lead with a further five rounders and some tight fielding, resulting in a well-deserved victory of 13 ½ – 6 ½.  Player of the match was Beth Dwerryhouse.

U14B v Woodbridge (Won 16-9)
A large U14B squad, with many girls making their debut performance, took on Woodbridge on Wednesday. RHS batted first and managed to score 8 rounders with the majority of the girls making the score sheet. When fielding in the first innings, RHS were decisive and made it hard for Woodbridge to score. Going into the second innings, RHS were leading 8-4 but they knew they would have to work hard in order to secure the win. They achieved 8 rounders with some excellent batting by Gemma Ayling, Sara Benavent Marti and Elena Miralles. The final score was 16-9. There were patches of good play by all but Georgia Folkard-Smith was awarded player of the match for catching 3 people out and being in control on 4th post.

U15A v Finborough (Won 14.5-9.5)
The U15As started slowly in their match against Finborough scoring 5 1/2 rounders to 4 1/2 in the first innings. There was some impressive fielding in the second from Sophie Rennison and Millie Orr, getting three batters out in a row at first post. Some fantastic catches from Sophie Atkinson and Charlene Tait saw Finborough down to 3 men with 15 balls left. What started out as quite a slow game turned into a nail biting finish with RHS winning 14.5 to 9.5. The player of the match was Sophie Atkinson.

U15B v Finborough (Won 17-16.5)
The U15B team had a great game against Finborough. After drawing level at 6 rounders each after half time, the RHS team went in to bat again and scored another 11 in their allotted time . Captain Sammy Chiu scored two with great hits over 1st base and Brittany Shresthra scored tactical halves with all of her hits.  With the opposition coming in to bat, the RHS team fielded rather shakily to allow them to creep up. However, their nerves held and the final score ended up RHS 17 Finborough 16.5.

U15A v Ipswich High School W 13.5-6.5
The U15As kicked off their rounders season in style in the local derby match against Ipswich High. With some tight fielding in their first innings the girls, captained by Charlene Tait, only allowed Ipswich High to score 1.5 rounders. RHs batted well in the first innings and were treated to several, well executed rounders from Millie Ainsworth and Cassia Peacock. In the second innings Ipswich High only managed to draw level with our score. A few more rounders under our belt and RHS secured a 13.5 to 6.5 win. Player of the match was Millie Ainsworth for some fantastic bowling.

U15B v Ipswich High School W 11-10
The U15B had a close game against Ipswich High but managed to keep their composure in both batting and fielding. Alice Youngs and Hannah Southerton both batted well, allowing RHS to score a total of 11 rounders. Hope Moonan and Jess Irving played a calm and consistent game in the field restricting Ipswich High to a score of 10.

U14A v Ipswich High School L 15-14.5
The U14As played an impressive first half, batting their way to a comfortable lead at half time. Unfortunately, Ipswich High upped their game and produced some strong batting, despite a valiant defensive effort from RHS and an incredible catch by Izzy Pearson. The overall score was 15 to 14 and a half to Ipswich High.

U14B v Ipswich High School W 13.5-12
The Bs had a great match and really set out to take the game. Captained by Beth Dwerryhouse they were even after the first innings but with good batting from Serena Brown and some excellent fielding from Tilly Ager and bowling by Molly Freeman, RHS took the lead winning finally 13.5 to 12.

U13A v St Joseph’s D 9-9
During the first innings, the U13s were slow to respond to good hitting from the opposition although George Nicholls took an impressive catch. The batting innings from RHS saw full rounders from Millie Salter and Tilly Arulampalam. The score was very close at half time, with only half a rounder between the teams. The second and third innings were very evenly matched the final score being 9 rounders all. Millie took an very impressive catch on a long ball, making her the player of the match.

U13B v St Joseph’s L 10.5-7
The U13B rounder’s team, captained by Annie Paddon, faced St Josephs in their first rounders game of the season. The team got off to a good start in the first innings with displays of confident batting and some excellent fielding in parts, particularly by Alice Kilian on 2nd post. However, as a result of cautious play particularly when batting, RHS found themselves 2 and a half rounders down at the end of the first innings. After a tactical team talk, RHS capitalised on their no balls and Shenise Robertson scored a fantastic rounder on ball 20 thanks to a massive hit. However, too many errors were made whilst fielding and so the final score was 10.5 to 7 to St Josephs’. Player of the match was awarded to Alice Kilian for her fantastic fielding at 2nd base and her ability to read the game well.

U12A v St Joseph’s W 13.5- 5.5
A great start to the season for the U12 team as they showed their strength against St Joseph’s. Unfortunately the opposition were struggling for numbers so two of the RHS reserves played for St Joseph’s and caught out a couple of their own team mates. In the first innings the RHS batting was rather slow however, once the girls got their eye, in the rounders flowed.  Overall after two innings Amelia Anderson had scored 2, Charlotte Stenning 2 and Freya Guckian, Yasmin Gradwick-Light and Morgan Thomas all scored 1. Molly Entwhistle scored from an excellent hit but she unfortunately slipped as she ran past 4th post resulting in a sprained wrist. The team fielded very well only allowing St Joseph’s to score 1.5 in the first innings and 4 in the second. Morgan Thomas bowled well and Yasmin Gradwick-Light was excellent as backstop. Charlotte Stenning and Molly Entwistle, and then Freya Guckian, combined very well on the 2nd base duo.

On Wednesday 12 June the U13 A&B teams played against Woodbridge School. The A team fielded well in the first innings but Woodbridge were big hitters and scored many full rounders. The player of the match was Izzy Durrant. The B’s were ahead after the first innings, 8-5, but Woodbridge stepped up a gear in the second half to beat them 12 1/2 – 8. The player of the match was Caitlin Stimpson.

The U12’s also played Woodbridge on Wednesday and while the B’s improved on their fielding skills it was not their day. The A team, however, put in a convincing win on home soil to beat Woodbridge. Following this victory the A’s put their game faces on for a tournament at Finborough School on Saturday 15 June. They played four intense matches resulting in a tie in the final with Barnardiston however, due to an overall score of 51 rounders, they were declared the overall winners. Captain, Tilly Arulampalam, and Millie Salter were the main contributors to the batting score and a special mention must go to Georgia Nicholls for her bowling skills.
