Representing Norfolk in The Lords Taverners U14 Indoor Competition, Swardeston’s U14s triumphed in nailbiting fashion to end a thrilling day’s cricket at the UEA Sports Park.
Entering the final round of matches, three teams still had a chance of lifting the crown, but Swardeston held their nerve and secured enough bonus points to ensure the trophy came back to Norfolk.
