On a day where the ball was like a bar of soap the handling among both the Wellingborough backs and forwards was immaculate.  As the Wellingborough pack started to dominate a much larger set of Stafford forwards both in the tight and the loose, the ball they served up for the backs allowed Wellingborough to run in a further six tries in the first half including a pair from centre Theresa Boden-Jones and a first for the club from fly-half Marie Sayler.  The other tries came from Emily Underwood again and wing Natalie Smart.

Wellingborough brought on four replacements at half time but this made no difference to the performance as the second half started in the same vein with Wellingborough going up the hill to score in the first minute through Emily Underwood, who then added her fourth try later in the half.  With the forwards in control, and with outstanding performances from Becky Woodgates and Stephanie Cannell driving them on it was only a matter of time before they were rewarded with a try through number 8 Elaine Addy.  With Kerry York marshalling the backs superbly a further three tries came through Kerry herself of which she converted two.

The general performance all round was outstanding in atrocious conditions and the week on week improvements bodes well for a very successful season, the ladies next match is at home to Bridgenorth on Sunday November 23^rd.
