U9 Contact Rugby v Ranby (H) 2.00pm
We welcomed Ranby to St Hugh’s for our U9’s first contact game. St Hugh’s boys were nervous but excited to put their tackling into practice. We agreed to split the game into 3rds of 10 minutes. Ranby won the toss and chose to start with the ball. Both teams started the game well and you would not have believed that this was their first contact game. There was some exceptional tackling and great running with the ball. Ranby ran in some good tries but St Hugh’s showed great heart with how they responded. The St Hugh’s boys got very close to the Ranby try line but were unable to come away with any points. The St Hugh's boys never gave up and for this they should be immensely proud. A lot of learning was taken from this game and they will take it into the next one. Well done to all the players involved.
