We couldn't ask for a better start to the season, with limited training before the match the coaches weren't sure what to expect from the players.
Sitting in the changing room handing out the team kit was a a first for our coaches and players (changing room and numbered shirts), with a squad of 20+ we used every shirt in the kit bag. A couple of quick tries by West Bridgford settled the nerves and lifted player confidence. Competitive scrums are a challenging skill to introduce for everyone, ensuring player safety being at the front of everyone's mind. The photo shows both teams with good body positions and we'll continue to develop this in training. With a huge pitch compared to 3 months ago there will be some tired legs from both sides and the officials. A special mention to our players who swapped shirts to ensure 13 players per side. Well done West Bridgford U13 Squad.....
