Ryedale School’s Year 8 rounders team
Ryedale School’s ‘A’ team scored success in the Ryedale & Whitby Partnership Year 8 rounders tournament at Eskdale School Ryedale won all seven of their matches, with Alice Hall exceptional throughout.
Ryedale’s ‘B’ team won three of their games in the round-robin tourney to finish fourth of eight teams.
Ryedale School’s Year 9s team were runners-up in their competition.
Terrington Hall School’s U11s team kicked off their season with two tournament wins.

Ryedale School enjoyed a good day when hosting Malton School in all year groups for cricket fixtures.

In the Year 9 game, Ryedale reached 77-5 with Kieran Bowes (28) and Gareth Skelton (25) retiring. In reply, tight bowling from the Ryedale attack, particularly James Redhead (2-2), restricted Malton to 74-8 from their 20 overs.
In the Year 10 game, S Harland (17) and J Raines (21) batted well for Malton, before Ross Leckenby (4-13) and Jack Hall (3-14) ripped through the rest of the line-up. Chasing 60, Ryedale batted conservatively. Jack Hall carried his bat for 33, the winning runs coming in the 16th over.
