The Hawks eased to their first victory of their 75th anniversary season against the Druids at Thorp Perrow.

The Druids were soon regretting their decision to bat as Simon Armitage took 4-7 off seven overs, backed up by Ollie Woodley (2-13), Micky Love-Peel (2-14) and nine-year-old Sammy Woodley (2-11) as they were shot out for 47.

Ed Parker (36no) helped the Hawks win by seven wickets.

The Bill Knight Fielding Point went to Parker for some stunning work, and the Hanson Trophy went to Love-Peel for the exact opposite.

This Sunday, the Hawks visit Arthington Cricket Club to take on West Riding Cricket Club (1.30pm).
