Strong performance sees Olney youth gain top spot

This was a fantastic team performance that led to a well deserved 27-0 victory.
- Head Coach, Ben Brock

Olney RFC's Under 16s team put in a great display of teamwork to beat off opposition from a strong Towcester outfit. Both Aaqil Attah and Oli Betteridge scored two tries apiece in the high octane match.

The side managed to put 27 points on Towcester which meant they were crowned East Midlands Under 16 League Champions. The performance and league result promises great things ahead as these young players go through the ranks to Colts for Olney RFC.

Head Coach Ben Brock said “This was a fantastic team performance that led to a well deserved 27-0 victory. It was great to see so many familiar faces cheering us on!”

Anthony Brooks (coach) said: “For me it’s been quite emotional. We’ve coached these lads for 10 years - We’re so proud of all of them.”

Gareth Evans (coach) said: “I’m not as in touch with my emotions as Antony(!) but I’m relieved and satisfied that after 10 years I get my Sunday mornings back.”

Well done lads on a fantastic result!
