25 January 2009 - v Newton Abbot (home)







Under 12s, Under 9s and Under 7s all played very muddy games on Sunday. Under 12s continue to improve, scoring their first try and successfully converting it at the beginning of the second half. The second half picked up from there on with some good aggressive play and a final score of Newton Abbot 70 - Dartmouth 7.



Under 9s had two very hard matches but have started to ruck well and the whole squad showed some great teamwork. Frankie, Jonty and Devon tackled well and Matt, Josh and Henry put is some great supporting play and great runs. Andreas despite still being new to the squad showed great determination and scored his first try. The first game ended with a fantastic score of Dartmouth 30 - Newton Abbot 5. The second game against a fresh NA squad was again hard fought and at half time saw Dartmouth trailing one try behind but after a brief half time pause the squad dug in and pulled back with three fantastic end to end tries from Devon and Josh and Newton Abbot despite some strong defensive work just couldn't find a response to the runaway train. The second game ended Dartmouth 35 - Newton Abbot 10.



The Under 7s also continue to work well with great teamwork and tagging all round. Joe and Alex Thomas and William Hollis all had excellent games with the team winning the first game by a convincing 8 - 6 and narrowly losing out in the second by one just one point Darts 9 - NA 10.



Well done all.
