Sissons brothers make impact for clubs
Jack Sissons, a Lower Sixth pupil at the school, made his debut for Colwyn Bay’s Liverpool and District Premier Division clash with Leigh.
Despite catching the eye on both sides of the ball, the 17 year-old was unable to prevent the current Welsh Cup holders from falling to a 101-run defeat.
Debutant Sissons ended his seven over spell with two maidens and figures of 0-28 as the home side set a target of 243-3 declared from 55 overs.
Although Sissons made a stubborn nine not out from 34 deliveries, there was no support at the other end of the crease as Bay fell to 142 all out from 46 overs.
He has gone on to claim his first senior wicket in a Welsh Cup triumph.
Mr Leach, said: “This was a very mature performance from Jack, who has worked very hard to earn his selection into a Colwyn Bay side that has enjoyed enormous success of late.
“Hopefully this will be the start of things to come and we are confident that he will be a tremendous asset to Sion Morris and the team.”
Will Sissons also made his senior debut for Llandudno, who cemented their place at the summit of the North Wales Premier Division after a dramatic two-run win over Connah’s Quay at The Oval.
Sissons looked comfortable during his short time at the crease to finish 15no as the home side set a target of 191-7, which was revised to 159 due to the conditions.
Following in his brothers footsteps, Sissons claimed his first ever senior wicket when he skittled captain Ryan Holloway for 33.
Despite a nervy ending, Quay fell just short of their target to end the day on 157-6 to give the leaders their ninth win of the campaign.
Mr Leach, said: “This was another milestone for Will, who acquitted himself very well throughout.
“To come into a side which is bang in form isn’t an easy task, but he showed that he is more than capable of making an impact at this level, and everyone is immensely proud of how well he performed.”
