Worcester Nomads Cricket Club's second successive visit to the national under 13 finals at Oakham was not quite so successful as last year when Nomads finished runner up.

But this year's position of fourth out of the last eight was still highly successful considering that over 1500 clubs were competing for the Ken Barrington cup.

The Nomads remain certain that no other U13 side has finished in the last eight in successive seasons, and there is no doubt that no other Worcestershire club has ever appeared in more than one national finals day.
