Selected for Outside Centre for the school Colts A team for what proved a very hard fought match against a very strong, fast and powerful Maidwell Hall.  Reading their website their Colts A had won 4 out of 5 matches but very large points gap, so we knew it was going to be a hard match.

After a breakaway try by Maidwell, HT was 0:7, with our team being overpowered in the rucks and mauls.  Half time let us re-group and after a Mr Clarke team talk we were up for the second half.

However this started poorly with another breakaway try but they failed to convert.

We then started to battle back with some flowing rugby and also starting to have more power in the scrums, rucks and mauls and we managed to score two converted tries and won the match 14:12 !

Found out on the Friday, for the second week running I was awarded Player of the Match ! Very proud ! Bring on Ashford School next week !!

Also very proud to find out that Mr Usher and Mr Clarke had chosen me to be one of 5 chosen to represent Beachborough Year 6 at the “Talented Rugby Day” at Magdalen College School on Monday 6th with Mr Grant Seely (Head of Rugby at Magdalen and ex Academy Coach at Northampton Saints)
