On Sunday 31st August, the boys put in a fantastic performance to win the Summer League semi-final against Hitchin and move to the final, which took place on Sunday. In the semi-final, in a rain affected game reduced to 16 overs, Hertford posted an excellent 98 for 3 with Sam Ryan scoring 25 retired, Thomas McGovern 22* and George Buse 19.

A quality bowling display led Hertford to a 47 run victory with Thomas McGovern taking 2 wickets; there were also 3 great catches by Thomas McGovern, George Buse and Stan Herbert. A special mention should be given to Sam Halfacre, wicket keeper, who had just one bye and was outstanding throughout.

Sadly, in the final, which took place on Sunday, the boys were unable to get over the final hurdle against a formidable West Herts team who batted first and posted 125/3 from their 20 overs. Despite a valiant run-chase, the boys fell 35 runs short of collecting the trophy, but that takes nothing away from what has been a memorable season for a great team. Well done, boys!
