Match Reports - U13:
Under 13's v
Horden
Fell Under 13's
Continue Good Form
The Fell 13's had Horden as
their visitors in the most recent match.
Looking to continue good
recent form, the Fell bowled first and soon had the
visitors on the rack. The lack of depth in the Horden
team was exposed by the Fell bowling as 13 Horden
wickets were taken.
Michael Elliott 4-1-3-5
Chris Dodds 2-2-1-0
Stuart Gray 1-1-2-0
Stephen Peacock 1-1-2-0
The Fell batted sensibly and
in their innings lost only 3 wickets. David Daley
(again), Drew White and Michael Elliott all getting out.
But they scored well and
made a comfortable 103 runs in total with Chris Dodds 18
not out and Sam Roseby 21 not out.
Rearranged games are coming
up against top teams Durham Cityand Philadelphia. They
will be a much better test of how much the team has
developed this year.
Under 13's v Hetton
Lyons
Fell 13's Power Past
Hetton
The Fell Under 13's showed great
form on their recent trip to Hetton Lyons. With a near full
strength team on duty the Fell contained Hetton to 67 for 9
wickets. Captain David Daley even had the luxury of giving
all the team 2 overs bowling each. Everyone bowled with
credit.
The Fell fielding was of a very
good standard and reflects some of the hard work done
recently.
The Fell carried their good work
into the batting scoring 121 for the loss of only 1 wicket -
captain Daley, clean bowled!!
The task for this team is to
carry this form to the end of the season with games against
the top teams still to come.

Under 13's v
Whitburn
Wickets Galore
for Under 13's
The Fell 13's travelled
to Whitburn on a dismal morning, but the
rain held off enough for the game to be
played.
The Fell batted first.
Skipper David Daley was in top form scoring
27 not out with two 6's. He was well
supported by other batters with Jack Doherty
making 18 not out. The Fell scored 104 for 5
wickets.
During the Whitburn
innings it was wickets galore. Whitburn
scored 88 runs but lost a total of 17
wickets in the process. Callum Fairbairn had
bowling figures of 3-1-8-5. This included 4
wickets in one over.
All round an easy win for
the Fell 13's
Under 13's v Burnmoor
An Improved
Performance Gives Fell the Win
The Fell Under 13's got back
into winning form with a much improved
performance at home to Burnmoor.
Batting first the Fell showed
the type of form coach Bryan Arkle had been
looking for. In the 20 overs they lost only 1
wicket and scored 111 in the process.
Chris Dodds 17, David Daley
23, Sam Roseby 19 and Jack Doherty 14 all scored
well for the Fell.
The Fell bowling was also on
target, taking 9 wickets in the Burnmoor score
of 92. Chris Dodds was top bowler with 3 for 6
in his two overs.
A good all round
performance.
Under 13's Slump to
Another Defeat
Coach Bryan Arkle gave debuts to
some of the fringe players in the Under 13's game at
home to Sunderland.
Winning the toss and deciding to
bowl first, the Fell started brightly with some good
fielding and a good defensive field set by stand in
captain Michael Elliott. Sunderland lost wickets
early on, but still managed to score runs at a good
rate. The later batsmen hit the ball well to give
them a final total of 103 for 6 wickets.
Best fell bowling was from Stuart
Gray who took 1 for 1 in his 2 overs.
The Fell batting followed the
same pattern as the previous week. Too many wickets
lost and not enough runs scored. Sam
Roseby did his best with 16 not out in the last pair
but it was not enough as the Fell ended up scoring
86 for the loss of 5 wickets.
Under 13's Beached by South Shields
The Fell travelled to South Shields
hoping to extend their good start to the season. A
strong Fell team was selected to match the strong South
Shields youth squad.
Batting first, the Fell boys let
themselves down with an ineffective display against some
accurate Shields bowling.
After 20 overs they scored only a
measly 44 runs for the loss of 7 wickets. Only Michael
Elliott showed any resistance scoring 11 not out.
South Shields, knowing that the
game was there to be won, applied themselves correctly
and totalled 66 for the loss of 5 wickets.
An easy win for South Shields - not
a happy day at the seaside for Gateshead.
Under
13's v Seaham Harbour
'Super Stu Smashes Seaham'
A fantastic spell of bowling by the
Fell's Stuart Gray gave the Under 13's an easy win in the
first game of the season at Seaham Harbour. Stuarts bowling
figures were - 2 overs, 1 maiden, 5 wickets for only 6 runs.
All the wickets were out clean bowled as the Seaham batters
struggle to contend with the accuracy of the bowling.
The Fell bowlers were accurate throughout
the innings and restricted Seaham to 63 runs for the loss
of a massive 12 wickets.
The Fell batting was also considered and
responsible. They scored 82 runs for the loss of only 2
wickets. Sam Roseby was the pick of the batters, taking up
where he left off at the end of 2007 season scoring 20 not
out, including a 6 and 3 x 4's.
All in all, an easy win, but tougher
games will be coming up.
Under 13's v South Hetton
Hetton lose out to Fell Under
13's
The Fell Under 13's continued the good
start to the season with another emphatic win. This time
South Hetton were the victims of another good all-round Fell
performance.
Batting first, a young Hetton side found
the consistent Fell bowling too strong for them. Hetton
struggled to 60 runs for the loss of 11 wickets in their
allotted 20 overs. Michael Elliott was chief wicket taker,
with 3 for 2 in only two overs.
Hetton's bowling fared no better - the
Fell batters smashed 158 for the loss of 6 wickets. Captain
David Daley scored 28 not out and Sam Roseby 38 not out.
A difficult game for Hetton, but well
done to them for sticking the game out and well done to
their manager Jim, for encouraging them to keep going.

Match Reports - U15:
Under
15's v Sunderland
Fell Come a
Poor Second
Earlier in the
season the Fell beat Sunderland in a thrilling
game to record their only win of the season (so
far)
It was not to be on
this occasion though as Sunderland showed good
form to beat the Fell easily.
Sunderland 101 for 8
wickets. The Fell 48 for 5.
This team looks like
having the dubious honour of being the worst in
the new league set up, with one game to go and
no wins so far.
Still, nearly the
football season......
Under 15's v
Whitburn
After several attempts
to play this 'Glen Robinson Memorial Trophy' game
were lost to the weather, the Fell and Whitburn
eventually got the game played.
Whitburn scored 126 for
4
The Fell 80 for 2
The last chance of any
success for this team were lost as they were
generally outplayed by Whitburn. Highlight for the
Fell, Matty Ridley scored 20 not out and batted for
most of the 20 overs.
Under 15's v Silksworth
Fell 15's Win The
Game For Silksworth
A classic case of how to
lose a game you should win easily, as the Fell 15's
started the second half of their league programme in
Division 3 North of the new regional league system.
Chasing a score of 71, The
Fell were 59 for 2 with four overs to go and Michael
Dicks in good form on 35 not out.
What followed was little
short of 'comedy cricket'....
Matty Ridley, batting well
had to go off because he was feeling ill. This brought a
new batter David Daley, to the crease at a critical
time.
New batter swishes and
misses a few. No problem Dicks should still get
them.........
Daley and Dicks run into
each other going for a quick single. Dicks ends up prone
on the wicket - run out.
Tauseef comes in. New batter
swishes and misses a few.
Another wicket. New batter
swishes and misses a few.
One over to go, 63 for 4.
Unfortunately batters think two overs to go!!!!!!!!!!
Last over. All credit to the
bowler who bowled an excellent over, one run scored.
Silksworth win, Fell boys head to dressing room for
severe lecture....
Under
15's v Boldon
Fell
Lose Out to Boldon
The Under 15's got their season under way
with a home game against Boldon.
The weakness of the Fell side was soon
exposed as Boldon's competent opening batters made easy work
of the Fell Bowling.
After 20 overs they had scored 148
without losing a wicket.
The Fell batting was slow and although
they only lost 3 wickets, in their 20 overs they only scored
70 runs, giving Boldon an easy win.
This might be a hard season for this
team....
Under 15's v Felling
Felling
too Strong for Fell 15's
Playing at home to felling the Fell were
asked to bat first. The batting form of the previous week
was again exposed as the Fell made 48 for 5 wickets in 20
overs. Under 13, Chris Dodds, opening the batting showed
good determination batting a long time for his 10 runs.
Despite an early breakthrough by Under 13
bowler David Daley, Felling knocked the runs off comfortably
for the loss of only 2 wickets.
Under 15's v Sunderland
Delight
As Fell Make First Win
The fell and Sunderland played out a very
exciting game that the Fell just came out on top.
With the last pair at the crease, the
Fell needed 14 to win with 2 overs of the game to go. Under
13 players David Daley and Callum French showed great
maturity in hitting the bad ball and showing the rest of
their team how to run well between the wicket.They managed
to hit the winning runs between them with one ball of the
game to go. With 9 not out and 8 not out, they both top
scored for the Fell in a low scoring game.
Earlier, Daley had bowled a magnificent 3
overs taking a hat-trick to put Sunderland in deep trouble.
They recovered slightly, but on a difficult wicket they
scored 43 for 7 wickets.
The Fell innings matched the Sunderland
one. Wickets going down regularly. Sunderland in pole
position until the final pair came together.
Under 15's v South Shields
Fell
Under 15's Crash
After the enjoyment of the previous week,
the Fell 15's were anihialated by a strong South Shields
team. South Shields scored 133 for 3 wickets.
The Fell reply was nothing short of
'feeble'. All out for 12 in 10.4 overs. Eight of the team
were out without scoring.
It can't get any worse than this....can
it?
Under 15's v Whitburn
Depleted
15's Try Hard
The fell 15's travelled to Whitburn with
a depleted team and missing captain and leading player
Michael Dicks yet again.
Whitburn batted first and recognising the
Fell plight, took the opportunity to mix their batting order
up. This did not prevent them from scoring a creditable 126
in their 20 overs. Season newcomer Tauseef showed his best
bowling for the Fell with 4 wickets for 10 runs in his 4
overs.
Under 13 Chris Dodds, again ahowed the
temprement for the game as he batted most of the way through
the Fell innings for 26 runs. Tauseef followed up his
bowling by smashing 32 not out.
The Fell ended up with 89 for 7
wickets...this season's highest total so far!!
Under 15's v Marsden
Fell
Poor Form Continues
It was more of the same as the Fell
travelled to Marsden. 41 for 5 in 20 overs. Gary Graham
showing the temprement for the game in this match, batting
through the 20 overs for 17 not out.
Marsden scored the necessary runs in
short time with 44 for 3 wickets.
No highlights as far as the fell were
concerned.
