SEVEN local schools from the Moor and Coastal Partnership Trust competed in the first ever inter-schools Kwik Cricket Competition recently. The event, kindly sponsored by Hartley Home Care, was held at Tintagel Cricket Club on Thursday, July 10. Represented were Community Primary Schools from Otterham, Tintagel, St Teath, St Breward and Camelford. As a result of Tintagel Cricket Club's recent investment in the sport's youth, and the game being taken into schools via the England and Wales Cricket Board's 'Chance 2 Shine' initiative, there were over 70 children, many of them girls, with the ability to compete to enhance their sporting development. The competition was hard fought and played in the spirit of cricket with admirable sportsmanship. Otterham A and St Teath made it through to a hard contested final with both teams scoring over 200 runs.
