The girls trained yesterday for the final time before plunging into a series of matches leading up to Christmas. The weather was a sunny and a refreshing change from the wet misery of the preceding week.

Although we are into half term for some schools there was an excellent turnout, with the focus upon defensive lines and handling kick-offs.

The girls now have a full fixture list until the end of April, with a handful of tournaments including the opportunity to play at the Saints in April. Although we have 11 committed players we always welcome new starters in Years 7 and 8, whatever their experience level. Our sole aim is for the girls to enjoy themselves playing rugby and we have a very friendly and welcoming team. We will also be able to accommodate slightly older or younger girls via our partnerships with other local clubs.
