Penclawdd Match Report

Another busy morning and two games to report on.

The U7s are developing so quickly. Everyone had half a game, and we had very first tries for Mumbles from Megan, Will and Liam, adding to a classy hat-trick from Jake. Ava showed the boys how its done by taking the rough tackles (I thought this was supposed to be tag?) with no nonsense and getting right on with it. Mumbles match debuts from Ethan andJames. Great running and tagging from Tal, Cai, Sean, Tomasz, Thomas, Ioan, Elias, Freddie, and Iestyn. Final score 6 – 8. Things to work on next time: lining up quickly in defence.

Ben Cambriani captained the U8s this morning, and they found Penclawdd a good side and hard to break down. With some great passing (have these boys actually been listening in training!) they eventually ran out 6 - 4 winners. Rhys and Ben’s braces top and tailed by the Toms. A first try of the season for Tom Gravenor opened the scoring and late try by Tom Langford sealed the win. Well done to all the boys for their passing, tagging and running: Jack, Thomas, Aled, Max, Ben M, Dom, Harry, James, Ben H, Cam, Matthew (first game of the new season – good to see you back) and Cian (fitting in very well in his Mumbles debut).

I hope that covers it. If I have missed out any details or scorers please feel free to add a comment on the Blog. Just have to finally say many thanks go to the Penclawdd team, coach and supporters. Junior rugby as it should be.
