On the 22nd of October 2009, three of Cresselly's junior squad flew out to Barbados on a tour of a lifetime. Tom Arthur (15), Jack Murphy (14) and George Wilkins (13) toured the Caribbean island with the Pembrokeshire Association of Cricket Coaches, along with their coach Rhydian Rees.

 

The squad played three matches in Barbados, Foundation School Under 15’s where Jack was selected as captain, The Lodge School U17’s and Deighton Griffith School Under 15’s where George was selected as captain.

The team were victorious in the first game against Foundation School by 51 runs. Jack scoring 17 runs, Tom taking 2 for 27 and George taking 2 for 17. The team were beaten by an older The Lodge School by 38 runs with George taking 1 for 18 and Tom 1 for 3. In the final game, Jack top scored with an excellent 56 on probably the hottest day of the tour. Unfortunately Deighton Griffith won the game by 6 wickets.
