The rain held off long enough for round two matches across all three age groups - George Denton Shield (under 13s), the John Kilborn Shield (under 15s) and the Col Dent Shield (under 17s) - to go ahead.
A number of players registered massive milestones on the weekend with centuries and half-centuries scored as well as a hat-trick and a five-wicket haul.
There was even a tie in the under 13s to cap off a sensational round of matches.
