Great Britain’s Children fail to disappoint as they are bringing home Team Gold from the European Championships for the fourth year running.   The 2010 Championships are taking place in Jardy, France near Paris where our Children’s team, aged 14 years and under have given an outstanding performance showing once again the incredible talent we have coming up through our .

With three of our team of four giving foot-perfect clears in the first round and only one team member having an unfortunate four faults we were already lying in equal first with six other teams who were all on zero (the three best scores count with the fourth being a drop score).

Prior to the fourteen teams coming forward to contest the second round in which Great Britain were drawn seventh to go, the fifth team members rode for their individual scores. It was thirteen year old Charlotte Smet riding Louise Morley’s 10 year old liver Chestnut gelding Maneken du Coty who as fifth man showed the team what needed to by producing a superb clear.

First to go for Great Britain in the teams second round was 14 year old Katie Robertson from Cupar, Fife with Lynne Robertsons 9 year bay gelding Cameron Poe, followed by 13 year old Christie Pritchard from Holyhead with Allen Tredwell’s nine year old grey mare Larkspur. With both Katie and Christie producing text book clear rounds. 14 year old Jake Saywell from Newark knew that if he produced a clear round with Ann Gascoine’s 9 year old grey gelding Cornelius 27 there was a very good chance that Great Britain would secure Gold. Producing exactly this, and as other teams faulted after us we were in a position of knowing we had won the Gold even before our fourth team member 13 year old Millie Allen from Stockton-On-Tee’s had jumped.

With scores from both rounds counting towards qualifying for the Individual Championships, Millie jumped, proved her worth and the depth of talent within Great Britain by producing another clear with Rachel Steel’s 10 year old bay mare Trueleva.

Michael Mac, Chairman for commented from Jardy “All five children jumped absolutely fantastically and are a real credit to Great Britain. Keeping their nerve whilst other’s fell apart the children were mature beyond their years and I feel extremely fortunate to be here with them today and proud of the sport in which we are all involved and feel so passionate about”.

Corinne Bracken, Chef d’equipe and Team Coach further commented “The four riders in the team today were outstanding, the course was much bigger in the second round and where the other teams failed to jump clears, ours just rose to the occasion. Before the second round of the teams had started, our fifth rider Charlotte Smet, showed us exactly what to do within the new time allowed which was ten seconds less than the first round. I’m incredibly proud of the team here today and would like to give a special thanks to the fantastic support crowd that we have at this Championship”.

With all five of the British Children qualifying for the Individual Final, which takes place on Saturday afternoon, Great Britain look in a strong position going forward.

The first of the Junior Team Competitions will take place later on today with the Team Final on Friday 16th. The Individual Final will commence on Sunday 18th July.

The Young Rider Team Competition will take place tomorrow (Friday 16th) with their Individual Final taking place on Sunday 18th July.

HU17.net has embarked on an exciting new venture with the launch of our Beverley Magazine.

The pilot of what we hope can become a permanent addition to the sporting landscape of Beverley was printed yesterday, and has been placed in locations around the time in a bid to raise the profile of local sports clubs and the HU17.net websites.

It will be printed in small numbers initially, but hopefully interest will enable us to print it in larger numbers in future.

The first edition features Beverley footballer and cricketer on the front page, and carries superb pictures from six sporting events that have taken place over the past week. The centre spread, which will be a special poster, features the Ray Speckman Cup Final winning Beverley ARLFC team.

HU17.net founder and owner Paul Smith said: “We wanted to find a way of putting our pictures and brand in front of people who may not be aware of the coverage we give to sport on a local level.

“The response has been very good and amendments will be made in issue two based on the feedback we have had from people around town.

“There is currently no editorial in the magazine as it focuses fully on images. It is what we are good at so it is what we will stick with. We will, however, see how we can add more captions and visuals to the pages.

“Hopefully this is something people will keep and not discard. There is no compromise on quality with all 16 pages being printed on a high quality glossy paper.”

Work on the second issue is already under way and it will be out shortly after the weekend.

It is hoped that over time advertisers and local sponsors can be found which will increase the numbers published. For now, though,  the focus is on delivering a quality product on time on a weekly basis.

Paul continued: “We have plans to do a total of four issues, which will take us upto the to start of the season.

“From there we will assess the situation and finalise a frequency and viability.”

Please contact us with any feedback or improvements you would like to see in future publications.

A fine performance from Cherry’s young all rounder along with three stunning slip catches from were the highlights of a hard fought derby clash when Dalton Holme hosted Cherry Burton last Saturday in the East Riding Independent League Div 2 with the visitors holding their nerve to win by one wicket in a tense finish.

Cherry never allowed their hosts to build any substantial partnerships with Talbot striking through the top order with 3-26 with Godber and Terry Ventress chipping with a couple of wickets a peice at the end to close out the Dalton innings on 103.

In reply Cherry struggled against Dalton’s opening bowlers Kingdom and Gamble and at 34-5 it looked like the points were going to the home side.

Talbot came to the wicket and playing with a combination of sound defence and clean hitting held the innings together before falling for 30.

With 3 still needed and the last pair of at the wicket Dalton’s bowlers applied the pressure with 4 consecutive maiden overs. The deadlock was broken when Godber scrambled a single and after a bye Shawal cover drove a 4 to take Cherry home to a memorable victory.

Dalton Holme 103 all out A Bailey 20 R Talbot 3-26 T Ventress 2-0 Godber 2-18

Cherry Burton 107-9 R Talbot 30 J Law 14 A Kingdom 3-40 M Gamble 3-21

lost to 3rd XI by 165 runs

Hull & YPI 286 for 6
4th XI 121 all out

The 4th XI were brought back down to earth when they were hammered by 165 runs by runaway leaders Hull & YPI III at Norwood.

The home bowlers failed to exploit a bowler-friendly track as Appleyard made an undefeated century for Hull.

took 2 for 56 for Beverley as they toiled in the heat. Too many wides and no-balls meant Town were in the field longer than necessary and the fielding suffered too.

For the first time in recent weeks the 4ths batting line-up disappointed and, as Hull used the crumbling surface to their advantage, Town could only manage 121 all out leaving them without a single batting bonus point.

(23) was the highest scorer and there were contributions from (20), and juniors (18) and (14) but no batsman was able to make the big score required to salvage something from the game.

Despite a poor day the 4ths can reflect on the last four games where they have played the top four in the league and only lost once. The run continues when they entertain second-placed Patrington followed by a trip to the team in fourth, HICE, in a rare Sunday fixture.

2nd XI 143 for 1

Beverley Town 2nd Xl gained a much needed win, at home to New Earswick, on Saturday.

lost to by 4 wickets

1st XI 223 for 5

Sessay 227 for 6

The 1st XI took just eight points from a narrow defeat away at Sessay. Town introduced Under 17 players and Matthew Novis for their 1st XI debuts against a usually strong side.

Fish opened the batting and proceeded to carry his bat for 95 not out as Town totalled 223 for 5 from 50 overs. Opening partner hit seven fours in an aggressive 33 and Jon Fisher (28) followed in the same vein but from 85 for 1 Town slipped to 105 for 4.

A partnership of 83 between Fish and (33) took Town towards a decent total before hit 15 at the end of the innings.

Sessay were kept in the game by a combination of some poor ground fielding and dropped catches but at 145 for 5 Beverley were still in with a good chance.

Novis claimed a wicket on his debut and might have had more but it was the experienced (2-40) who turned in a very good performance. Fisher (2-44) was also in the wickets and (1-63) produced a good second spell but Sessay were eventual winners from the first ball of the final over.

Beverley will see this as one that got away and slip to ninth place in the league with Goole, just six points ahead of them, the next opponents, at Norwood.
