Coleraine lifted the Under-13 Boys Cup after a six-wicket victory over Ballyspallen in the final at Sandel Lodge.

Ballyspallen, batting first, posted 86 for six from their 20 overs, with captain Matthew Johnston carrying his bat for an unbeaten 33 from 57 deliveries.
Harry Nutt provided valuable support with 21, including two boundaries, while Ben Pollock added eight. However, Coleraine kept the scoring under control through disciplined bowling and sharp fielding.
James Murdock and Dylan Cochrane were particularly economical, both returning figures of one for nine from four overs. Tom Kelly and Shai Kula Mahadeva also claimed a wicket apiece, while two run-outs further restricted Ballyspallen’s progress.
Coleraine lost Freddie Nutt for four early in their reply, but Cochrane and Reuben McLenaghan took control with a decisive second-wicket partnership of 62.
McLenaghan struck 28 from 29 balls, including two fours and a six, before falling to Oliver Douglas. Skipper Cochrane continued to lead the chase, hitting five boundaries in a match-winning 44 from 53 deliveries.
Although Ballyspallen claimed three late wickets, James Murdock and Mahadeva completed the job as Coleraine coasted to victory to secure the trophy with 21 balls remaining.
