Williamwood High School played host to an evening of exciting cricket action as primary pupils from Busby, Carolside and Netherlee came together to celebrate the completion of a block of extra-curricular delivery.
The Active Schools led festival proved a fitting culmination of the term's cricket programme, the spirit of the occasion only matched by the skill and teamwork displayed by the pupils.
Open to P4-7 pupils, each school ran a 10-week after-school club in preparation for the festival. For many, this represented their first real experience of cricket.

I had heard of cricket before but wasn't totally sure what it was. I wanted to find out more so I signed up to the club. I'm really glad I did: I enjoy batting and fielding the best. The festival was fun and I got to meet lots of new people from other schools.

It's truly important that pupils are given the chance to experience a variety of quality physical activity opportunities. This includes activities that could be deemed 'niche'. The response from the pupils has been incredible. The programme has attracted a diverse group with varying exposure to physical activity, but they have all really taken to cricket and the vast majority of participants are committed to pursue the game further.
