Bideford under 9’s travelled to Tiverton for a three way mini tournament with Tiverton and Crediton. All three clubs managed to field two teams each which is great for youth rugby.
Bideford Runners (our newer players and our Cross country runners) were fantastic, Riley leading the way with some fantastic tackles. Adam, Ethan and Clark had some storming runs and all three showed great ability to off load the ball to the quick feet of Thea, Isla and Jake.
Olly S and Olly C both showed showed some fantastic skills to get themselves over the line on more than one occasion. All the Runners team were great and bearing in mind they have played a few games less than the Others they are not far off from them which is great.
The Others had a similar day the consistency of Harry, Daisy, Caleb and Noah going in hard with their runs was brilliant coupled by Finn, Olly and Seb running some great running lines created some great try’s.
Defensively Daisy was again heads and shoulders ahead of the rest with her technique and at one point made a tackle got to her feet and scored the try.
All in all a great morning of rugby against two good rugby teams.
