Fernhurst player wins at Lord's

Is this a Fernhurst first? An FCC player on the main pitch at Lord's? Probably* ...

On Saturday, Ella Meier turned out for the MCC Foundation 'Guildford' team in the national U16 final at Lord's.


Ella, a stalwart of the Fernhurst Flames, is on the right of this picture, on the balcony of the Home dressing room. Guildford beat Bolton by four wickets in the final. The trophy was presented by MCC President Stephen Fry and the medals by England skipper Heather Knight (pictured below). Well done Ella - we are very proud and look forward to more trips to NW8!


**UPDATE** one of our Vice Presidents, Dr Chris Taylor, represented Rugby School at Lord's in 1968; they beat Marlborough. Chris has sent his congratulations to Ella.
