Proper rugby weather !!

In what must be deemed as one of the wettest tournaments to date, the U8s still managed to play some good tag rugby. The conditions were not great, resulting in many dropped balls, slippery tags and some very soggy players!

The U8s fielded two strong teams. On the occasions when they did run straight down the field they were rewarded. Tom Poole put this theory into practice and scored some fantastic tries.

Tagging was much improved this week despite the weather, with Felix Brockdorff and Hugh Cruttwell doing an earnest job for the As. Ben Steele and Domonic Kirk put in a great performance for the Bs by getting lots of tags.

Unfortunately, despite good tagging and support the Bs just couldn’t get the tries and didn’t win any matches, but they did improve with every match and tried their hardest. The As won one match, drew another, but unfortunately lost the remaining two.

Although this week the U8s couldn’t celebrate a huge success, they must be congratulated for playing without any complaints about the cold and rain heavy enough to get Noah dusting off his carpentry tools ! Well done boys for never giving up!

Thanks to everyone for their support, hopefully you've all managed to dry out by now. With no more tournaments now until March we have plenty of time to work on all aspects of the game. We also have a few away fixtures planned, which are alsways good match play practice for the boys.

Chris, Matt & Jo
