Reports for last weekend
Dumfries beat Uddingston at the weekend - in the Women's Wee Bash on Sunday in the real fixture that mattered. So one all. U11s won through to the Cup semi-final. And the prodigal son returned on Saturday against the firsts. Well bowled Niall, a lead contender for the Jimmy Steele bowling award?!
