Top score for Rye was Alex Welch with 10 and with the ball Charlie Cooke took 2-12. A performance enhanced by the fact half the team are two years under age. Equally the U11B team performed to achieve a thrilling single run victory over Tenterden U11B team. George Smith impressed with the bat 12, and all the bowlers performed well.
