Merstham Eagles, one of two U9 sides, produced their performance of the season so far in overpowering Salfords, scoring 335-6 before Salfords replied with 269-8.
Luke Hirchfield opening up set the tone with a classy 25. Solid batting from the next two pairs including 14 from Ben Wright merely laid the platform for a blaze of power hitting from Will John Cox who hit 39 off 13 balls with four sixes and three fours.

Merstham U9s entered two teams for the Capel 6-a-side festival last weekend. The Rhinos (Matty Beggs, Alex Bird, Will Carney, Harry Colbourne, Connor Morris and Michael Noad) and the Hippos (Dinuk Jayamanne, Will John-Cox, Jacob Law, Flynn McRobbie, James Pieters and Max Thomas) were separated in the group stages, and for much of the day it looked like the final would be an all-Merstham showdown.
