This film features cricket and rugby sporting events at the Blenheim Boys School in Leeds. Awaiting the beginning of a cricket match, boys are sitting in and around changing hut/small pavilion on the tree-lined edge of a pitch. Someone else is setting up wickets. More boys arrive and wander around the pitch under the supervision of an umpire in a white coat. Some boys are in cricket whites, others are in everyday clothes. The umpire stands behind wickets and the game begins. There is footage of bowling and batting, runs and other players fielding in the background. The umpire walks in front of camera and smiles. The spectators, who are mostly boys sitting on the grass or leaning on pavilion railing, do not look exactly thrilled by the game. There is a long shot of the pitch and the game with rows of housetops behind the trees. The game continues, and the umpire and fielders wandering around. One boy up to bat hits the ball, starts to run then turns, hits the floor and just misses being hit on the head by the ball. The inning ends and the next team take the field. The game continues. Next is a rugby match being played on a very muddy rugby pitch which is surrounded by trees. The spectators are not watching the game, but trying to attract the attention of the camera and pulling faces. The camera moves back to the players who are in a huddle with their coach and they too play up for the camera. Players are running about the field and throwing the ball. One boy gets hold of the ball, run with it and is tackled to the ground - this series of events is repeated several times.
