Chingford Cricket Club's U-13 team, competing for the first time in the Essex Indoor Metropolitan Premier League, ended their campaign as runners up in the title race.

A last match victory over Ilford secured their position and brought the players, pictured, runners up awards at the league's annual presentation night, held at Loughton Cricket Club.

Alex Gordon, Chingford's U-13 opening bowler, picked up a Jack Petchey Foundation Award for the club in recognition of his consistently outstanding performances during the season.
