The Merstham Cobras U9 cricket team enjoyed another fantastic unbeaten league season, retaining the East Surrey Cricket League for the Club and building on their Championship winning season of the previous year. A very close victory off the last ball against Sanderstead proved the decisive result.

Success in the cup continues to elude the side, with Oxted & Edenbridge winning a close and high quality semi-final.
 
A total of 22 children played in at least one of the matches, demonstrating both the depth of talent at the club and the continuing policy of giving all abilities the chance to play in actual matches. This will hopefully allow us to run two sides next year.
