Under 10s
Match 1 Pool A
Wellingbough Vs Kettering 35-0 Against the old adversaries Wellingborough came out with something to prove and within two minutes Prop Remi Hussein powered through Kettering's defence to score Wellingborough's first try. This was quickly followed within a minute from a long pass from Flyhalf Patrick Sullivan to Jake Kneeshaw who took a line between Ketterings Centre and Wing to score. With this lead Wellingborough pushed hard on the Kettering defence with tries from Max Dalton, Patrick Sullivan and a brace from Tim Matthews. Remi concluded business in the last minute to complete the 7 try win over Kettering. Match Two Pool A Wellingborough v's Stuart and Lloyds 25-0 A first time start for AJ and Christoph who made immediate impacts on the S&L defence and Evie Probert taking a pop pass to sprint through their ranks and set up Patrick Sullivan for the first try with four more scored before the final whistle. Semi Final Wellingborough v's Long Buckby 15-0 A hard fought semi-final with both teams demonstrating their strengths Long Buckby passed the ball wide on several occassions only to be hit by very physical tackling by Wellinborough backs. Scrum Half Matt Walker was amongst the try scorers with a lovely darting run around the scrum to score one of the best tries of the day. Final Wellingborough v's Old Northamptonians 5-15 This was the fourth time the teams had met at semi-final or final of a comptition this year, all honours having gone to ON's. In all matches Wellingborough had missed scoring a single try, so in the second minute when Wellingborough crashed over to create an early lead the supporters were ecstatic. On's came back three minutes later 5-5. Early in the second half Remi Hussein fell awkwardly leaving 8 players on the field temporarily. ONs seized on this, ploughing through the forwards to score 5-10. The win by ON's was completed in the closing seconds with a last gasp try. |
