Jamie inspires Waterhead win

CRICKET:

JAMIE Pollinger led the way as Waterhead Academy Year 11s got the better of Saddleworth in the Oldham Schools Cup final.

Waterhead made 86 after winning the toss. Saddleworth needed 20 from the last two overs, but Pollinger and Jump claimed the final two wickets to seal victory for Waterhead.

Cricket coach and PE teacher Scott Fletcher said: “The lads were brilliant.

“It was an excellent all-round display and the victory was much-deserved.”
