The Rebels travelled to Oakmere for the last game of the season on Sunday.
Losing the toss 🪙 (but what’s new there 🤷🏼‍♀️) they were asked to bowl.
Izzi & Nic bowled the 1st 6 overs with Izzi taking a wicket in the 3rd by bowling out the batter. Unfortunately, we lost Chelle here early on with an injury to her heal. She was forced to retire for the rest of the game 🥺. The next 7 overs saw Sarah & Jamie come into the attack which saw 7 wickets fall in this spell. Jamie taking 2, the first was caught by Nicola & the 2nd lbw. Sarah took the other 5 wickets in a spell which she didn’t have a run scored against her & she nearly took a hat-trick in the 13th over👏🏼. Absolutely superb bowling! finishing with figures of 1/5 off 5 overs with 4 wicket maidens!! Andie & Jenny bowled overs 14 to 19. Jenny taking a wicket in the 17th with a brilliant spinning ball! Then Nicole finishing off the innings in the 22nd over trapping the batter lbw. Final score 72 all out.
Onto the batting 🏏 & with 30 overs to get 73, there was no need to panic or rush!
Andie & Sarah had an opening partnership of 16. Sarah hitting 2 4s in the 3rd over before getting out lbw in the 4th, scoring 10. Izzi came in 3rd and lasted 2 overs but was bowled out with the final ball of the 5th. Andie was then bowled with the first ball of the 6th over with the score on 24/3. Sam & Steph then put on a partnership of 38. Both playing the ball well & scoring 6 4s. Sam was bowled in the 11th over scoring 10. Nic then came in with Runcorn needing 11 to win the game. Which they did within 4 overs.
Final score of 73/4. With Steph finishing on 22.

This win meant the Rebels finished on a high & confirmed a 2nd place finish in the league 🎉.

Sunday’s paint cricket pink weekend 🎀🎗, finished with the Rebels final home game of the season vs Chester.
Winning the toss 🪙, for a change..they decided to bowl.
Cassie & Nicola opened the bowling but no wickets fell in the opening 6 overs. Sarah & Izzi bowled the next spell and Izzi took the opening wicket in the 8th over bowling out the batter. Sarah had an economical spell and was unlucky on a few occasions not to take a wicket. In the 13th over Runcorn took the 2nd wicket with a run out from Cassie. Jenny & Jamie managed to slow the scoring down for 6 overs then with no further wickets being taken. Nicola came back on for her 2nd spell and took the 3rd wicket with her first ball of the 20th over. The 4th wicket came in Nic’s next over, with lbw given. The final 2 wickets were taken by Izzi in the 26th over, both bowled.
Chesters final score came to 174/6. 👏🏼

After a good performance in the field, the batting didn’t go to plan!! 🫣⬇️🪰 Sarah was out in the opening over after starting off well hitting 2 boundaries. The 3rd over saw Andie & Izzi both lose their wickets. And then Chelle & Nicola were both out in the 4th over. Steph & the hobbling Sam (knee injury) managed to get through 2 more overs before Sam was out in the 6th. Jenny was next in before she was unfortunately run out with the last ball of the 9th over. Nicole then joined Steph for a few overs. Steph managed to stay in till she was bowled in the 13th over after scoring half of the entire teams score with 25. Cassie got out in the following over and Nicole was last out in the 16th over. Final score 53 all out!!

We must say a massive Well done to Chester for their title winning season🎉👏🏼🏆.

The Rebels have 1 game to go, away at Oakmere. With a win there, will guarantee them a 2nd place finish. Not bad atall for their first season in a higher league. So good luck and well done to all!

Thanks as always for everyone's support, time and encouragement 🫶🏼❣️🥰

The Rebels were back on the road yesterday as they travelled to Nantwich through the rain 🌧.
Runcorn lost the toss 🪙 and where put into bat 🏏.
Andie&Sarah opened the batting & got off to a promising start. Steady scoring saw the Rebels get to 21 before Sarah was caught on the boundary with a cracking shot, scoring 11. Andie was then bowled out in the 7th over. Sam&Chelle where up next, but their shots kept finding the fielders, so they couldn’t quite get the scoreboard ticking. Both losing their wickets in overs 10 & 11 with the score on 37/4, Izzi was in at 5 & StephW at 6. Izzi was caught in the 12th over, bringing Ellie into bat. Ellie was bowled with the score on 47/6. Nicola then joined StephW in the middle at the halfway point of the innings. Both batted well & got Runcorn back into the game. A partnership of 78 with Nicola scoring 46, got the score to 125. StephW was then out lbw, before the loss of the final 3 wickets in one over. Final score 126 all out.

Time to field & it didn’t take Runcorn long to get the 1st wicket. 3rd ball of Sarah’s 1st over, hitting middle stump. Sarah also got the 2nd wicket in the 5th over, again bowling out the batter with the score on 19/2. Then came some economical bowling by Izzi & Cassie which slowed the scoring down. The next wickets didn’t fall until the 14th over with Nicola taking 2, bowling 1 & Sam taking a close catch for the other. At the halfway stage of the innings, Nantwich were on 63/4! Exactly half our score. Nicola took her 3rd wicket in the 16th over trapping the batter lbw. The 6th wicket then came from Cassie’s bowling in over 23. Sam then took a wicket in the next over with the score on 90/7. With the scores getting close & overs running out, it was going to be a very tight finish🫣. Cassie had a wicket maiden in the 27th over, leaving Runcorn needing 1 wicket to finish the game, Nantwich requiring 15 runs. Fielding was great, limiting the scoring throughout the innings. Nicola took the final wicket in over 28, ending the game with Nantwich on 116 all out.

A very nervy finish but a great win!🎉
We have just 2 games remaining 🏏...
Thanks as always to our supporters, coaches and umpires 🫶🏼

In the Rebels’ penultimate game of the season, we hosted Over Peover Cricket Club in sunny Runcorn, a week after our victory against them on their ground.

Runcorn once again lost the toss (as it seems to be a common occurrence this season) and batted first. Losing no wickets, the score was a solid 341. We put out a wonderful performance fielding with lots of communication going round and Over Peover’s ladies putting in a great performance too getting a solid 310/3, meaning Runcorn Rebels are three for three in their games over the last eight days! 💙

The whole team did amazingly; lots of communicating whilst batting and backing each other up in the field, so proud of you girlies 💙

Shout outs:
✨ Claire - well done Captain on the 25 runs!
✨ Ellie - a solid 23 runs and two wonderful catches!
✨ Sarah - a massive 20 runs!

Well done to all our Rebels after another brilliant performance!! Thank you for our fellow Rebels and other supporters who came to watch us, along with our scorers and umpires 💙
