U15s in fine form on western tour
16th - 17th March 2002
| MAIDENHEAD under 15s came back
undefeated from their tour to the West Country. Three convincing wins against Chippenham (38-24), Midsomer Norton (24-0) and Keynsham (24-0) proved to be a fitting climax to a great season on the back of their recent county league victory. In the first match against
Chippenham, Maids were quickly into their game scoring
with a Matt Wardle try. Chippenham fought hard but
zealous tackling by Tom Robinson, Karl Kempton and Sean
Burgess started to turn defence into attack. The second half saw a Chippenham three try rally, but the visitors held their nerve and tries from Burgess and Plumer put the game safe. Against Midsomer Norton, Maids showed how strong they could be with a fine display of rucking, running by the backs, and good interplay between forwards and backs with every member of the team pulling their weight. The final fixture against Keynsham
was a very good game with Corcoran opening the scoring
following a fierce drive. The final credits are to Wardle for converting eight out of 14 tries in wet and windy conditions and to the management for organising the successful trip. |
