Wrexham U8 - 7 April home against Ruthin
It was the first rugby for a couple of weeks with the weather taking its toll. The guys were a little rusty and took some time to get going. In the end Wrexham had success in both games with everybody getting on the score sheet.
The coaches took a back seat this week with the players taking control on the pitch by themselves. This is a real step up and shows the progress that has been made throughout the season. Bit of a focus on making decisions quickly and getting into position in attack and defense is required but they showed that they can manage.
Both sides made some great tags but this resulted in good support and handling. The off-loads by Wrexham gave rise to some brilliant team tries. Both sides capitalised on a few mistakes but the tries from Wrexham from some strong running through the defense or speed around the wings.
Summary of match results:
Match 1: Wrexham (14) vs Ruthin (12)
Team: Sam J (6), Luke, Sam W (1), Owain (2), Dylan (1), Jack (2), Rhys (1), Oliver (1)
Match 2: Wrexham (10) vs Ruthin (8)
Team: Sam J (4), Luke (1), Sam W (1), Owain, Dylan, Jack (3), Rhys (1), Oliver
Thanks to the parents for their support this week. Thanks to Ruthin for the great games.
