Match Reports

U8 Rugby

We enjoyed a very competitive game against Lincoln Minster. Tries were pretty evenly scored for the first few quarters of the match, and pretty evenly distributed amongst our team. Otto L and Albie C led the charge and scored several tries first off, then Barnes N, Joshua W and Freddie H got in on the act. Many of our tries came as a result of individual runs down the touchline, but some came about after some excellent support play and timely passes. Barnes N impressed with his excellent running with the ball and determined tagging. Bertie P and Joshua W were industrious all afternoon and Otto L, Albie C and Freddie H ran elegantly with ball in hand. Jonty H and Edward V came in and out of the game and moved about the pitch busily. In the latter stages Lincoln Minster came on strong and broke through on a few occasions to just edge the match. It was an entertaining game, played in great spirit by both sides

Result: 4 - 5 (20 - 25) L

We welcomed Lincoln Minster this week and the boys were excited to take to the field and put on a great performance. The game started fast with some great running and some strong touches. Both teams were able to create and find space and the tries started to build. The game was end-to-end and all was level going into the second half. The second half brought with it a game development with the boys being required to go to ground (parachute fall) once they had been touched. This took a little while for both teams to get their heads around, but once they did we had some fantastic ball presentation and offloads from the floor. Again, the tries were well worked with the boys finding the space out on the wings. A well-matched fixture with both teams demonstrating some superb rugby. Well done to all the boys involved.
