Today saw our girls from all age groups AWAY at Dartfordians to attend a Pitch up and Play / Festival, which allowed the girls over an hour of competitive rugby.
I heard our 4 U13s and 5 U15s got well stuck into their mixed group of players. Even though there were a few minor injuries the girls enjoyed themselves and continued until the end of the day.
We had 6 under 18s from Sevenoaks and were supported by 4 players from Ashford under 18s who were a credit to themselves. The Sevenoaks girls applied themselves whole-heartedly to every game, bar the first five minutes of the first game. Great lines of running, clearing out and continuity play were evident all day. I hate to say it but they all seem to have enjoyed themselves and were fairly happy with the way they played. We also tried to play a type of game play with a fair bit of consistency. The girls played five matches with the following results.
Darts 4 v SOaks 3
T/Wells and westcombe Park 2 v SOaks 3
Darts/ Beccs 0 v SOaks3
Thanet/ Old Colfs / Beccs 2SOaks 3
The last game saw us play a well drilled and committed Medway team. The girls again played really well and showed no signs of fatigue and battled all the way. the could have won but lost out by a last play try by Medway.
Well done to all girls!
