Sevenoaks Under 11s Golds and Blues squads enjoyed a clean sweep at the Sidcup A and Sidcup B Festival on Sunday 1 November 2015.

Both teams developed well throughout the day, putting together strong passages of expansive play with the ball in hand.

In the A Festival the lads started slowly and rusty handling almost proved costly as they edged past Old Elthamians 3-0 and drew 0-0 with the hosts. Following that the Golds got into their stride, completing four wins on the bounce without conceding a single try. The indicator of how well the boys came together was beating Old Elthamians 8-0 in the knock-out stages.

The Blues in the B Festival were more quickly into their stride, getting on the front foot with 3-0 and 11-0 victories. Further Group results went for them to set up a Final versus Beccehamians. It was a very tight game and despite conceding their only try of the day, Sevenoaks held on to draw the match 1-1 and seal the Cup on try count back.

Squads: Golds: Ben McClinton; Daniel Record; Elliot Wright; Harry French; Henry Thompson; Ivan Solomakhin; James Kerton; Juan Barnard; Oliver Caradas; Ruben le Roux;Zac Schaeffer; Sam Kemp, and Toby Goodman. Blues: Dewi Robinson; Ed Lakin; Felix Crispin; George Edwards; Henry Martin; Jacob Seaman; Jimi Ogun; Jimmy Mayes; Oliver Bartlett; Quinn Taylor; William Grinstead, and Rhys Williams.
