U12 Regional Tournament

Twenty-four under 12 teams from across the south west region competed in the annual regional tournament on Sunday 26th April at the University of Exeter.

The teams were split into 4 equally ranked pools for the first stage with the winners of each pool playing off for the top 4 positions.

The lower ranked teams from each pool went into their own group play-offs to determine their ranking overall.

The overall winners were the impressive Poole from Dorset, who were unbeaten all day. They beat Crossbow from Avon in the final, with local team TTNC Griffins finishing in 3rd place.

A big thanks go to Em Harvey for organising and managing the event, and to Karen Jones, Jen Henwood and Peter Burrows-Bryan for supporting and mentoring the umpires during the day.
