The Herts U14 team faced LYBL in a repeat of last year’s U14 National Final. With so many of Herts U14 players from last year moving up into the U17 age group the team is made-up of younger players who may not be able to match the top teams in the league at this stage of their development, but the club hopes that the youngsters will develop over the next few years to challenge for the title.
LYBL won both games convincingly and they move up the standings closing in on second-placed London Sports.
