ROUNDERS is a popular sport among girls at Mount House School ? and they are good at it!
The girls have played a number of fixtures this term and are unbeaten in all age groups.
The U13s opened their season with a Jet National Knock Out match against St Dunstans from Plymouth. Tight fielding and impressive hitting saw the Mount House girls home comfortably by 13-5, Hattie Cunningham picking up most of the plaudits for her six rounders.
The U13s proved again what a good side they are with a comprehensive 11-2 win over Kelly College, with Hattie Cunningham and May Liddell-Grainger outstanding.
To complete a trio of victories over friendly West Devon rivals, Mount House defeated Plymouth College 17-4.
Teawork and good fielding skills were again the base for this handsome win. Alice Toynton and Hattie Cunningham were the pick of the batters.
The U12s also won their opening game. They defeated Plymouth College 14-7, while the U11s started the term successfully with an 18-8 win over Treliske School from Truro. Hard, clever hitting by all the Mount House batters saw the side to a comfortable win, with an U10, Ella Hartley, top-scorer with four rounders.
