Cricket Hong Kong Primary Cricket Tournament

On 6 December 2018, the VSA Sharks Cricket Teams had a blast at the Kowloon Cricket Club
It was the CHK Primary School Cricket Tournament organised by Cricket Hong Kong and venue sponsored by Kowloon Cricket Club and Hong Kong Cricket Club. It took the format of 6-a-side cricket matches. Each school can nominate more than one team. Since VSA has 14 students enrolled, we formed ourselves into two teams of seven to participate in this event.
In the preliminary rounds, VSA Sharks Team A won the first match against Nord Anglia Team A by 121 to 107, but lost the second match to Nord Anglia Team B 135 to 146. On the other hand, our VSA Sharks Team B lost their first match to Harrow International School by 119 to 151, but won their second match against Nord Anglia Team C by an equally high score of 151 to 114. After counting the total scores recorded in each matches, our VSA Team A came first in our pool, and Team B got 2nd place in their pool, leading both teams to the next round of championship match and bronze medal match respectively. Finally, our VSA Sharks Team A earned the Silver Medal and VSA Sharks Team B got the 3rd Runner Up of the day.
I’d like to say a big thank you to Mr. Woods and Coach James from CHK who has been running our school’s cricket ASA program and brought us to this tournament to showcase our skills. I would also like to thank Lamma Cricket Club and Ashford Benjamin who sponsored our playing shirts.
Both teams had a brilliant time on the pitch and a great time together. We shared all our results and had an awesome time playing as a team - and a family. Our team members include Me, Paco, Darren, Gabriel, Joshua, Giselle, Anne, Aodhan, Lin Lin and James of Y5, and Ned, Lillian, Alex and James of Y4.
Anyone interested in cricket should come join us. We will have two more tournaments on February 20th and May 8th. Stay tuned!
