Mitcham u13s played out of their skin to beat the hosts in the first game. But they found Purley and Banstead too strong in the other games and the team went out at the group stage.

Mitcham u16s played brilliantly in their festival as they also faced and beat Beddington. Defeat to Old Whits followed making the final against TMW a final decider. Mitcham's great batting saw them home, to face the Whits for the title.

But Old Whits, beaten finalists in previous years, weren't going to miss the opportunity. Their explosive batting saw them reach an incredible 88-4 off their 40 balls. Everyone except the Mitcham eight assumed that was game over. But the Browncaps scored 20 off the first over and 20 off the third to set up a last over shoot out. In spite of hitting 8 sixes in their 40 balls Mitcham were 11 short after they posted 77-1 - the second highest score of the day. Old Whits deserved the title as they batted better all day. But the u16 reached Mitcham's first ever final and they didn't let anyone down.
