UNDER 16 CRICKET TEAM WINS NORTH ZONE LEAGUE TITLE

In their five games this season so far, the Saints have played undefeated ,winning their group and are awaiting to play the semi finals against the runners up in the other group in the North Zone Under 16 division of the Powergen Secondary Schools Cricket Competition.

The Under 16 Team went on to beat all the other Zones in the National Play offs to win the National Under 16 title. They beat Toco Composite in the quarter finals, Barrackpore Senior Comprehensive in the Semi Finals and Presentation College Chaguanas in the big finals.

They were crowned National Under 16 Champions 2008. This team is also the nucleus of the team going to Barbados for the Sir Garfield Sobers International Tournament in July and we are currently on a fund raising drive. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
