For the very first time, a Rounders tournament was held for primary schools as part of the WOKSSA Sports Festival programme. The event took place on Tuesday June 27 at Angley School. 18 teams competed from 14 different schools; an excellent turn-out considering how busy the summer term already is with regards to school sports activities.

Teams were placed into small groups for the first round and played each other in a round robin format.
