Windy Win

Newark u12s started strongly against Kesteven and played some very fast and flowing rugby to go 3 trys to 1 in the first half. Some strong running from Oliver D helped drive the team forward. The squad had to do endure a lot of pressure for the Kesteven team and there were some great tackles.

In the second half Newark had to play against the strong wind which actually made them keep the ball in hand and run through some good phases. Newark scored 2 trys to 1 for Kesteven. Even with Kesteven having 13 players on the pitch for most of the second half Newark soaked up the pressure and kept control of the match.

During a sub swap, Kesteven took a quick restart and court Newark asleep. Try saving tackle for Oliver D who ran the length of the pitch and as Max D told me to write, "nailed him"

Well played everyone.

Final score 2 trys to 5 trys win
