SS vs SHS Cricket Match

Stamford High School have taken on Stamford School in an intense Under 12 cricket head to head.Being deemed one of the 'most important matches of the season', an even split of 15 students on each team made the match all to play for.Mr Hyams, Teacher of Classics and SS team coach, said: "There's no rivalry quite like boys vs girls and the Under 12 match was hotly contested."Both teams really gave it their all and it was brilliant to see an "internal" game inspire such strong performances and enthusiasm from our students. I really hope it becomes an annual fixture!"Take a look at tweets from the match below:
