Year 7 Cricket
A lovely group of students played Newman School on Wednesday, and learned loads along the way – everyone showed real development in both bowling and batting, with great effort and enthusiasm throughout.
WHS came away with the win (although the result may have been helped by some interesting scoring from Mr Green, who still isn’t quite sure how many balls are in an over!). Fantastic spirit from both teams and a big thank you to the Newman lads for a great fixture.
Year 10 Rounders
Our Year 10 rounders team took part in the Carlisle City tournament on Wednesday after school.
The William Howard team finished in 3rd position, narrowly losing to Trinity and Caldew but finishing with an excellent win over Austin Friars. The girls grew in confidence during each game, demonstrating good communication in the field and improved batting.
Well done to everyone, especially Ellen and Maisey who were nominated players of the game by the other schools.
Don’t forget, rounders practice is on Tuesday after school – Years 7 & 8 with Mrs Henderson, and Years 9, 10 & 11 with Mrs Beaumont – come along and have some run!
