Festival 1 match report (Uppsala 4th May)
12 maj 2019 0 kommentarer
Wow, what a day! A huge part of rugby is all about commitment, determination, spirit, teamwork and hunger, and the team delivered in spades today.
First match against a strong Exiles side: great to see some of the moves we've been practising in training coming off (just seen Newcastle score a try with an 'apple') and massive effort to close the game out without conceding a try.
Second match against a big baa baas team: amazing to see the commitment despite the size difference, absolutely no fear and we ended up roughing them up.
Third match against a very well drilled Uppsala team: toughest match of the day, they were super quick at the breakdown. The opposing coaches said they'd use our strike running, quick decision making and the way we found another gear in the second half as inspiration for their team.
The team was nothing short of outstanding today, they should all be proud of the team effort and deserve extra ice cream this weekend! Special mention to the newer members of the squad who stepped up to the challenge and really contributed meaningfully.
